LiktI’m Bryan Kam . I endeavour daily to make philosophy accessible and relevant. To that end I write this newsletter and host a podcast called Clerestory . I’m also writing a book called Neither/Nor and I’m a founding member of Liminal Learning . In London, I host a book club , a writing group, and other events. My work looks at how abstract concepts relate to embodied life, and how to use this understanding to transform experience. Recently, I had a conversation with Haneen Khan , a sex coach and fellow thinker, about the relationship between abstract thinking and embodied experience. The Nature of Abstraction and Experience We began by discussing the academic paper which Isabela Granic and I recently submitted, which describes my philosophy Neither/Nor . The paper and the forthcoming book focus on the relationship between experience and abstraction, or theory and practice. The paper critiques what we term “latent Platonism,” an unconscious tendency to prioritize abstract, theoretical constructs over direct, embodied experience. This can reveal itself in conversation, for example, when sharing about an uncomfortable experience can lead an interlocutor to leap to broad generalizations rather than discussing the experience itself. The Need for Balance and Awareness Throughout our conversation, we emphasized the importance of balancing abstract reasoning with experiential knowledge. Haneen and I agree that awareness is key — awareness of when we're gravitating too heavily towards abstraction at the expense of our felt experiences (or, less frequently, vice versa). Haneen shared valuable insights from her coaching practice, emphasizing the power of grounding practices that help individuals reconnect with their bodies and emotions. This balance, or oscillation as we’ve termed it, is crucial for a holistic understanding of the self. Abstraction, while powerful, can become a tool of escapism or avoidance if unanchored by embodied awareness. Maintaining a strong connection to one’s felt experience, on the other hand, can enrich not only personal wellbeing but also interpersonal interactions. Integration: A Path Forward We concluded by emphasizing integration — a synthesis of experiential and conceptual wisdom — as a winding path forward. This integration offers a potential solution to the pitfalls inherent in each mode of understanding when pursued in isolation. Concepts like Internal Family Systems Therapy illustrate such an integration, offering a framework where conceptual understanding aids emotional and physical awareness. I’d love to hear your thoughts and experiences on this topic: How do you navigate the balance between abstraction and experience in your daily life? Let me know in the comments. Bryan P.S.
