Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The tracker from the Shangaan tribe, Richard, was able to find two leopard cubs three miles from any road in dense brush. The most basic reason he was able to wayfind with almost miraculous skill was that he was a master of the first technology of magic, Wordlessness. #2 The most important skill for any wayfinder is the ability to drop into Wordlessness, which allows you to be aware of your situation and your own responses to it. It connects your consciousness with the deep peace and presence that is your essential you. #3 The idea that real learning is spoken, read, and written is a holdover from the Age of Exploration, when explorers traveled the globe and claimed indigenous populations were dim-witted, unmotivated, and backward. #4 The key to Wordlessness is to move your basic perceptual and analytical thinking out of your head and into the whole inner space of your body. This is how you begin to find your way through life. But most people don’t know this.
Martha draws on her experience as a life coach, her love of nature and understanding of animals (and the African wilderness in particular), and the awareness, concerns and needs of huge numbers of people today - the team. She focuses on four states we need to explore - Wordlessness, Oneness, Inspiration and Creation. She presents basic skills for healing your own emotional wounds and physical infirmities in order to access a part of you that is capable of healing others.

Short-listed for the Royal Society Winton Prize for Science Books, the Best Book of Ideas Prize, and the Society of Biology Book Awards • Book of the Year: Sunday Times, Sunday Express, and New Scientist “In its stunning blend of the literary with the scientific, Pieces of Light illuminates ordinary and extraordinary stories to remind us that who we are now has everything to do with who we were once, and that identity itself is intricately rooted the transporting moments of remembrance. We are what we remember.” — André Aciman, author of Out of Egypt and Harvard Square A new consensus is emerging among cognitive scientists: rather than possessing fixed, unchanging memories, we create new recollections each time we are called upon to remember. As psychologist Charles Fernyhough explains, remembering is an act of narrative imagination as much as it is the product of a neurological process. In Pieces of Light, he illuminates this compelling scientific breakthrough in a series of personal stories, each illustrating memory's complex synergy of cognitive and neurological functions. Combining science and literature, the ordinary and the extraordinary, this fascinating tour through the new science of autobiographical memory helps us better understand the ways we remember—and the ways we forget.
