Still Waters Posted May 22, 2013 #1 Share Posted May 22, 2013 While we often think of our bodies and minds as two distinct entities, it turns out they are much more entwined than we might assume. Researchers are continually finding evidence that the brain has a distinct power to manipulate the body’s physiology. As these 10 examples show, the mind/body connection can work in our favor or detriment, depending on our knowledge of a situation and our ability to control our thoughts. http://listverse.com...nd-over-matter/ 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mnemonix Posted May 22, 2013 #2 Share Posted May 22, 2013 (edited) More like "Mind over Body"? Except for the sheets, that could be "Mind over Body" with effect on matter. I think of "Mind over Matter" more like bending a spoon with your mind. But still, amazing. I find the multiple personality disorder interesting. Imagine if we could somehow control it and use it for positive effects on our body. It's all in the mind, isn't it?

White Crane Feather Posted May 24, 2013 #8 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Curiously, researchers have discovered the placebo effect is somehow getting stronger, and some drugs that have been on the market for years, such as Prozac, are now proving less effective than placebos Or just they were using faulty science in the first place. Some of the article resonates with some of Rupart Sheldrakes work. I'm interested in the multiple personality disorder findings. If its true that one personality really is not diabetic while the other really is...... Wow!!!! Imagine what we will be capable of once we figure out our minds.

Tiffanyy Posted May 25, 2013 #9 Share Posted May 25, 2013 Anyone else tell themselves "im not cold" when in reality your freezing and trying to stay warm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
libstaK Posted May 25, 2013 #10 Share Posted May 25, 2013 Anyone else tell themselves "im not cold" when in reality your freezing and trying to stay warm? That wouldn't work - because your mind is being reminded of "cold" - "I'm not cold" aka: the word cold will make the mind recall memories of cold. A better tactic is "I feel warm and comfy". The same with "I'm not hungry", one should say, "I feel full" or instead of "I'm not tired" try "I feel so alert right now". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
