FOCUS and PREPARATION FOR
OUR 1.5 MEETING
How we pay attention
Below you will find two links, one to a 20min video and one to a more recent 75min video by Dr Iain McGilchrist. In time please view both but if you’re short on time please view the 20min one before we meet again.
This is intended as stimulus to keep you focused on what you KNOW to be true, even if it is not immediately quantifiable or measurable – in the context of ‘What is yours to do’ and to provide fuel for your journey. You will see much resonance between this work and the thinking behind Conscious Game Changers.
Dr Ian McGilchrist is a former Fellow of All Souls College, Oxford, an associate Fellow of Green Templeton College, Oxford, a Fellow of the Royal College of Psychiatrists, a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts, a Consultant Emeritus of the Bethlem and Maudsley Hospital, London, and a former research Fellow in Neuroimaging at Johns Hopkins University Medical School, Baltimore.

75min
Optional
In our 1.5 session, let’s discuss the implications of his research on ‘What is yours to do’ and how the culturally ingrained over-reliance on the left hemisphere effects your work.
I sit listening as the wind asks its eternal questions:
What will our generation of women pass on to our daughters?
What will be our legacy to the daughters of our great-granddaughters?
And the earth sings her response:
Offer yourself...
...yourself.
