About this listen

In a world defined by rapid change and mounting uncertainty, it's easy to feel unmoored or unsure of how to move forward. This book offers scientific and experiential insights to navigate such times through the interconnected domains of mind, body, and world. It moves beyond a collection of facts to uncover the deeper foundations of coherence and understanding.

Grounded in the emerging science, this book explores active inference and the free energy principle-concepts that foster cohesion through the ongoing interplay of sensing with our bodies, predicting with our minds, and adapting to our environments. Developed in conversation with one of today's most cited scientists, Karl Friston (the originator and often called the "grandfather" of these principles), these ideas are translated into everyday language. They are brought to life through relatable stories and illustrations, making cutting-edge and robust research both accessible and deeply practical.

Each short chapter offers insights and tools to help recognize patterns, respond with greater clarity, and reconnect with what matters most. The result is a book that is both intellectually stimulating and personally transformative. Approachable, engaging, and rooted in science, this book will leave listeners with a renewed sense of possibility and a practical foundation for moving through life's complexities with greater ease.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
