Embodied thinking attaches the empathizing and kinesthetic thinking. Body thinking involves muscle movement, posture, balance, and touch (161). Moreover, the process of body thinking is exercised when an unfamiliar skill is initially being learned (161). As a skill becomes familiar, however, the process of body thinking becomes automatic and the body completes the skill without thinking (162). For example, when you first learn how to ride your bike, your mind and body have to focus on the completion of the task. As the skill becomes familiar, however, your body goes through the motions of riding your bike automatically without your mind having to think about how to complete the task.
Thinking with one’s body is frequently utilized as a means to express oneself across various artistic domains. For instance, dancers, painters, and musicians all claim utilizing their bodies to create their works of art.
