ABSTRACT
Introduction In academic thinking we can estimate that around 95 per cent focuses on the cognitive dimension of the conscious T. Yet, probably 95 per cent of embodied thought is non-cognitive. In other words, 95 per cent of academic thought concentrates on approximately 5 per cent of peoples thinking. Lakoff and Johnson (1980:13ff.) compare conscious thought with the tip of an iceberg which means that unconscious thought below the surface of conscious awareness shapes and structures all conscious thought. Such implicit knowledge reside in body practices which are being activated in intersubjective spaces between people doing things together as well as in relation to objects.
