This speaks to me deeply. I appreciate your explanation of top down and bottom up processing. It shines a new light on what I usually refer to as presence or being mindful. It's helpful to think in terms of the importance of direct experience informing us which I usually refer to as intuition. This different way of speaking about it as you do in the post, helped to me to see decision-making in a fresh way. Thank you!

Ooooft. I resonate with this on so so many levels. Especially in meeting people and later finding out that it’s not what it seems. Definitely have driven me mad before realising that through all of that direct experience and noticing, the real medicine I received beyond truth, is the invitation to cultivate self-trust. I can trust my perceptions and ways of sensing.

Your writing is so beautiful! I thoroughly enjoyed this piece. Such a flow 🌸 that cafe looks cosy 🥹
