Embodied cognition

“He who considers things in their first growth and origin …will obtain the clearest view of them.” Aristotle.

Thinking in terms of ORIGINS of capabilities in this way is an embodied approach to cognition.

Also, looking at cognition from the point of view of ACTION, rather than KNOWLEDGE reflects and embodied approach. My embodied take on this is to see cognition through the lens of the specifically human capability of AUTONOMY.
