MIND - The Entropic Mind Hypothesis

  • Summary

  • Neuroscientist Robin Carhart-Harris has developed the "Entropic Mind Hypothesis" that suggests our minds operate along a continuum of conscious states ranging from organized and even rigid on one end to the opposite extreme of disorganized, even chaotic at the other.

    Carhart-Harris suggests that our minds work best when they are in the middle of the continuum at a so-called point of "criticality." Our minds flourish, in other words, when we find the middle ground; where our minds are balance yet flexible.

    A strategy for flourishing, therefore, is to become more aware of where are minds are along the entropy continuum and to learn how to move easily from organization to disorganization and back as best suits the situation.
