Our Brains Have Two Minds: One 'Analogue' and One 'Digital'
Consciousness may be rooted in a 'feeling mind' which continuously monitors our internal body state using slow, 'analogue-like' signals. This system is physiologically distinct from the rapid, 'digital-like' processing of the 'modern mind' responsible for language and reasoning, suggesting our brains use two fundamentally different operational modes.
