Action Theory

Action Theory explores how our thoughts, feelings, and physical actions interact to shape our understanding of the world. In the context of embodied cognition, it suggests that our mental processes are deeply connected to our bodily experiences. Rather than viewing the mind and body as separate, Action Theory emphasizes that our actions inform our thoughts, and vice versa. For instance, the way we move and interact with our environment influences how we perceive and understand things, highlighting the importance of our physical presence in shaping our cognition and experience.
