				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Embodied Thinking</h2>
<p><a href="http://pss.sagepub.com/content/23/5/502" target="_blank">Psychology researchers in Singapore</a> have found that acting out metaphors or imagining them, helps people become more creative.</p>
<p>These ideas of using metaphors to gain creative insight, are closely related to the ideas we have covered in this blog: &#8220;<a href="http://multispective.wordpress.com/2007/02/21/how-to-think-like-einstein/" target="_blank">How to think like Einstein</a>&#8220;.</p>
<h2>Metaphors and thought experiments</h2>
<p>Einstein is known to have imagined himself <em><a href="http://www.pitt.edu/~jdnorton/Goodies/Chasing_the_light/" target="_blank">riding a beam of light</a></em> across space. Albert was fully aware of philosophical thinking processes, because he started reading philosophy when he was 12 years old. The imagined metaphor, is a close cousin of the &#8220;<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thought_experiment" target="_blank">thought experiment</a>&#8220;, which has been present in philosophy for more than 2,000 years. Einstein was able to leverage this old type of thinking to gain historical insights.</p>
<p>But Einstein also mixed pure imagination with his personal physical experience of the world. For example, he compared the <em>feeling</em> of gravity with the <em>feeling</em> you get when riding a car while it accelerates. <a href="http://archive.ncsa.illinois.edu/Cyberia/NumRel/GenRelativity.html" target="_blank"><em>(see General relativity)</em></a></p>
<h2>Why does the embodied metaphor work?</h2>
<p>Why is thinking through a metaphor just as effective, for creativity as performing it?</p>
<p>Psychologists have repeatedly said that our minds (bodies) have a hard time telling apart what we imagine vividly from what happens in reality. In other words, our imagination may be key ally in our ability to trigger the benefits from the mind-body level of thinking.</p>
<p>Whether we use only our imagination or we combine our imagination with our actual physical experiences, metaphors are a doorway to great insight.</p>

<p>Following from the world of advertising and persuasion of <a title="Past Meets Present: Shan Shui Environmental Art" href="http://ekostories.com/2013/02/22/shan-shui-environmental-art/">last week's post</a>, I want to present this provocative image courtesy of <strong><a href="http://thethirdray.com">The Third Ray</a></strong>, a blog by Joe Zammit-Lucia.
