Perception Box Science
Everyone, even the most enlightened person, is a prisoner within their own conscious and unconscious experience of (perceived) reality. Discover the neuroscience behind how this works.
How we view and interpret the world and its inhabitants is dictated by our genes as well as the physical and social environment in which we were raised (“nature” and “nurture”). We absorb cultural norms, that is, spoken and unspoken rules as well as conscious and unconscious assumptions and biases about appropriate and inappropriate behaviors, situations, and goals that we then use to construct meaning and narratives that dictate the trajectory of our lives. These priors are shaped by personal experiences, both beneficial and traumatic, that can reach all the way back to early childhood events and constrain the way we respond to social situations, to individuals based on their in-group vs. out-group affiliation, looks, skin color, actions, language, and other cultural signifiers.
