Associative Reasoning: Riddles! Dreams! Myths! Rewilding!
Why does poetry intimidate (or uninterest) so many people? Why do riddles bedevil us? Why do dreams commonly serve no more than as stories we relate to friends and family, starting with “whoah, I dreamt the weirdest thing last night…” and ending with “…I wonder what it means?”.
Let’s get to the bottom of this!

I look forward to hearing the podcast in which you go through your process of associative thinking and riddles. I have a notion to incoporate riddling into teaching Chinese medicine.
