Cut your decision-making time in half-by upgrading the hardware you've been ignoring: your body. In an era of A.I. overload and endless "thought leadership," Somatic Mental Models: The Body's Role in Superior Decision-Making reveals a faster, deeper intelligence hiding beneath your neck. Neuroscientist-level citations meet two-minute "micro-drills" that train four somatic gateways-interoception, proprioception, exteroception, and autonomic rhythms-to light-speed your judgment, slash bias, and unlock flow on command. What is coveredInstant practicality: 50 classic mental models (First Principles, Bayesian Thinking, OODA Loop, etc.) paired with 60-second body hacks-no meditation cushion required.Science you can feel: 100+ peer-reviewed studies distilled into visceral cues you'll notice the very first day.Beat the algorithmic echo-chamber: Use gut-level "somatic markers" to spot deepfake logic before your prefrontal cortex even wakes up.Designed for busy brains: Each chapter follows a tight 5-step template + one-page cheat sheet. Read a model at lunch, deploy it in the 2 p.m. meeting.You'll master how to...✔ Turn a long exhale into a truth-serum for First-Principle breakthroughs✔ Map second-order consequences with a "dual heartbeat" drill investors swear by✔ Delete analysis paralysis with Occam's Razor soft-focus gaze✔ Flip sunk-cost bias using the "heel-drop release" (it's weird-and it works)✔ Stack habits, energy cycles, and emotional regulation into a self-reinforcing loop
