Abstract

The objective of this article is to deepen into the embodied cognition theory. Taking imagination and remembering as psychological phenomena, the present work seeks to show how the internal tasks of remembering and planning the future are intrinsically imbricated with the corporal experience. To defend this theoretic argument, an empirical application is presented on which we sought to identify and describe body gestures associated with the experience of remembering and imagining. It is concluded that the experience of both processes constitutes psychological phenomena that exceed the limits of the psyche, evidencing body expressions of the inner experience during different acts of remembering and imagining. In this way, in this article, we defend the idea of an embodied remembering and imagination.
