Episode description
In the book Doors of Perception, Aldous Huxley discusses the idea that our Brain acts just like a reducing valve. Our brain takes in information but before we become consciously aware of this information our brain begins to reduce that information down.
In other words, when it comes to the world around us, we don’t see the whole story, what we perceive is just a tiny fraction of the big picture.
