WIRED FOR STORYTELLING: HOW A WELL TOLD TALE AFFECTS YOUR BRAIN
FOR tens of thousands of years, humans have used stories as a way to pass on important teachings to the masses. From fairytales we heard as children, to fables to indigenous teaching stories such as Jumping Mouse, on some level we have recognised – and used – the power of a good tale since times […]
