The Evolved Nest
The Evolved Nest
with Dr. Darcia Narvaez, PhD
In this film with Dr. Narvaez, author of the astounding Neurobiology and the Development of Human Morality, Dr. Narvaez explains why small band hunter gatherer groups are the baseline for human normalcy, we explore the enormous question of 'What went wrong?' in modern society, which is leading to such profound unhappiness, anxiety, and distress for so many people, and the planet, and Dr. Narvaez explains her conceptualization of the Evolved Nest: an appropriate context for optimizing human flourishing.
