      ab: I address the problem of caring for our body-mind through neuropragmatism, cybernetics, and Larry Hickman's work on John Dewey and the philosophy of technology. The problems of body-mind health are related to Emma Dowling's The Care Crisis. I address this crisis by drawing on Jay Schulkin's conception of viability as the creative tension between stability and precarity. From this, I extend body-mind health to questions of democracy, leading to the proposal of body-mind-world as an elaboration of neuropragmatism's evolutionary and ecological conception of experience as Œ and Hickman's distinction between the merely valued nature-as-nature and the valuable nature-as-culture. I conclude with a reimagination of creative democracy as a moral ideal for dealing with the care crisis.
