What do you mean, Mindbodies Decolonised?

The pathologisation of differences in thinking, communicating and being is rooted in colonial constructs of what is ‘normal’, created to uphold racist, patriarchal, capitalist systems, designed to control and exploit.

Neurotypicality is a performance of those norms and expectations, not a neurotype. There is no ‘neurotypical mind’, only minds that are able to perform neuronormativity. I have named that performance of acting in alignment with colonial norms rather than our natures ‘neuro-performative’.
