English 12A Mind-Body Connection Extra Credit

One of the ideas that underpins The Diving Bell and the Butterfly is the connection between our mind and our body. To further explore this idea, go to https://onbeing.org/programs/matthew-sanford-the-bodys-grace/ and listen to the podcast interview (I recommend the regular, rather than the unedited, episode). After listening to it, write and print a one page, typed, double-spaced reaction to the interview (not a summary - an analysis). In your reaction, reference ideas from the interview that are addressed in the book we are reading as well as some of the ideas in various This I Believe essays I have paired with our novel. This is worth up to 50 points extra credit and is due by Friday, November 17.
