The paper examines embodied cognition as an educational paradigm integrating body, mind, and environment. Nature is interpreted as a cognitive device that provides affordances, regulates attention and emotions, and generates situated learning. Pedagogical, methodological, and inclusive implications are discussed, focusing on the teacher’s role and on transforming nature into a neuro-didactic laboratory.
