The purpose of this study is to examine the lifelong education viewed from the philosophical position of the body through concept establishment and semantic exploration of embodied learning, which has recently been drawing attention in learning theories. For this, the causal relationship between body, knowledge, emotion, and spirituality, which are components of embodied learning based on literature data, was explored. This study attempted to prepare conceptual maps based on exploration of embodied learning components, and based on this, discussed the future direction of lifelong education in the paradigm shift of the future society. The results and implications of the study are as follows. First, embodied learning was found to circulate dynamically through mechanisms of body, knowledge, emotion, and spirituality. In addition, through the concept map of the embodied learning, embodied learning has an integrated structure, not a theoretical system limited to the body. As embodied learning is a powerful driving force for suggesting the future direction of lifelong education, and a mechanism to enhance the overall view of lifelong education, various studies on embodied learning will have to be involved.
