050 — Embodied Intelligence with Dylan Newcomb
Today’s episode features Dylan Newcomb, founder & lead trainer of UZAZU Embodied Intelligence. Dylan is a master embodiment-based coach for helping professionals & cultural creatives, and an avid embodiment researcher.
Dylan trained at the Juilliard School in both dance performance and music composition, and was a multi-award-winning choreographer-composer in the Netherlands for over a decade. Dylan went on to co-found Danslab Institute for Movement Research in 2001 (generously funded by the Dutch government), where he conducted cross-cultural research for several years, exploring how vocal sounds, breath, and movement influenced thought, emotion, and behavior across hundreds of subjects. This research formed the basis for what has evolved into a comprehensive modality known as UZAZU Embodied Intelligence.
Listen in to today’s fascinating discussion, and join Dylan and Dr. Fred in an exploration of the following topics:
Where we place our attention as the highest leverage point of control
Why Dylan is no longer interested in “purpose”
Body, Mind and Awareness as 3 distinct phenomena
Benjamin Libet’s startling discoveries on readiness potential and free will
Is cause and effect an illusion?
Understanding how “states” impact our effectiveness in various moments of life
Reconditioning ourselves to be more fully available to the invitation of the moment
Why trauma hinders our ability to shift to various states
