Chapter 2: How the Body Helps the Mind “The mind is its own place, and in itself, can make heaven of Hell and a hell of Heaven.” John Milton When it comes to the body and the mind, there is a correlation between the two, other than physical connectedness. The way your body feels will affect your mind, and that can come through with physical ailments or disabilities as well as what you eat and how you feel about it. As the body is continuously changing physically, through shape, health, age, etc., the mind is also changing. Just like the body, the mind can be influenced and pulled towards one thing or another. What this means is that the body and mind are connected through different channels and that we, through mind power, can resolve certain conditions in our body with this power to an extent which is greater than we may think. One of the major contributions this power can offer is how to change the age of your body, through your mind. So how does it work? Let’s break it down. Naturally our body’s run a cycle. We are born, we grow up, and then we die. The way the natural body is made is amazing. All the organs and veins, tendons, muscles, joints, etc., are made to naturally work together, therefore, your natural state should be at maximum capacity. Maximum capacity includes physical functionality, strength, thriving health, and a powerful mind. With a powerful mind, the body can benefit greatly, as it always grows and is influenced by its surroundings. Now when talking about power of the mind and the body, it is important to understand that there are natural powers at work. For instance, when a wound is inflicted onto your body, your body has the power to start healing it immediately. Now, since your body and your mind are connected, and your body possesses the power to heal the body, why can’t the mind heal the body? The ideology behind this is not only life changing, but also as possible as you want it to be. To believe that it is possible to change your bodily condition through your mind is beneficial to you in all aspects of your life. What is important is to understand that there is a great range of physical conditions that your mind can control. For instance, have you ever met an elderly person who seems young? A person who may be 60 or 70 years of age, but is physically fit and mentally young? If you have ever come across one of these rare people, you will be happy to know that his or her condition is not some miracle only bestowed onto them, or good genes that must be in their family. That individual is the way he or she is because of their mental capacity to stay young physically. What that means is that the individual who harnesses and hones the power of the mind can physically stop aging, and it is as easy as you want it to be. To further break down this process we need to break down the mind. First of all, there are two spheres of your mind. There is the subconscious and there is the conscious mind. Both run as parallels in your head, while one is made up of your conscious thoughts and decisions, and the other is of your non-conscious thoughts. Both are influenced by different things. What you consciously think and decide has to do with your environment and how you
perceive that environment. Your subconscious is constantly awake and overlooking your thoughts, body, and feelings in a quiet and tranquil state. While the conscious and subconscious are two parallels, the conscious mind does have some influence over the subconscious mind. Your every thought, feeling, and emotion is absorbed by the subconscious which then takes all those unspoken and spoken opinions and beliefs and stores it away. The influence that this information has on our body through our subconscious is unlimited and completely unadulterated by our environment because once the subconscious takes out thoughts it interprets them without any influence by our outer surroundings. Once the subconscious has our thoughts, they are completely subjective thoughts about what we truly feel and desire. Once you understand the power of the subconscious, you can make some incredible changes to your body and to your well-being. Whether you want to be healthier, be stronger, or be younger all you have to do is channel your subconscious and conscious energy into the right direction. Consistently thinking about being healthier, happier, stronger, and younger can actually make a difference, and it is a life-changing difference when you know how to harness that kind of mind power. When thought is constant, it has a way to change you, the energy you possess, the environment around you, and even the ways others think. The change is not only psychological, but physical. Our constant thoughts will change our attitude, the way we perceive the world, and the way we approach the world. The slightest change in you and your environment can change the path on which your life progresses. The power of the mind is extremely strong and powerful, and you must be careful what you constantly think about. If, for instance, we have consistently negative thoughts, the subconscious will pick up on our attitude and emotions and will then emote that feeling and energy into our bodies, physically changing our body’s cells and units. The best way to describe it is if you have ever been in the company of someone who thinks they are always sick. That person eventually always ends up feeling physically sick because of their negative thoughts. Now, on the opposite end of the spectrum, a person who believes in themselves and feels healthy, happy, and strong can affect the way their body feels and builds. The body will build strong cells and units with positive energy flowing through the body and with the power of the conscious and subconscious mind. It is so important to realize the power you possess when you understand the way your life can change when you hone into the power of the mind. That which we believe in can become a tangible goal when we harness this power. Even the thought of aging can be reversed when you simply channel your energy and mind power to think of positive and young pictures. Your subconscious takes that reflection of your truest feelings and then emits it into your body and soul, therefore allowing your body to build upon the power of your thoughts. When you feel young in your mind and in your heart, your body will follow suit and help you feel young physically. It’s about believing in yourself and the power you possess within yourself. When you have consistent positive thoughts about your physicality, you will see a gradual change in your physical being. A small force will then start to mobilize within your body and through the power of your mind you will be able to feel as fit and healthy as you want. If
you’ve been in a slump and have felt a bout of bad luck that affects you mentally and physically, you can, with the power of your mind, improve your condition over time with positive thoughts. The power you hold within yourself can be channeled towards your body and the strength and health within your body that can actually make you physically feel better. However, if in your bout of bad luck you pick up bad physical habits, you’ll want to stop those habits to help the power of the mind effectively heal you. So if you are eating improperly, you’ll want to discontinue improper behavior. A ball of energy exists in you and through harnessing and directing, you can achieve everything you want. So many people out there are using the power of their mind to improve their physical and mental beings, to push for the things they want and need, and are staying in the most fit and happy state they can be in because they believe in the power of the mind and because they believe in the power that is within themselves. You can be the force you want to be when you take that step and believe in yourself. And the best thing about it is that you can start at any time in your life. You don’t necessarily need to start when you’re young or when you’re old, that is all relative when it comes to your mind and how you feel, because you may be old when it comes to numbers, but not in the mind. You can counter old age with your mind and make sure that you are physically and mentally happy and fit. If you think about being young, you will feel young and that feeling is something that cannot be taken away from you. For example, take a mother. A mother raises her kids and then they grow up and start their own lives. When children leave, some mothers feel an instant emptiness and at times feel like their life has no more purpose, but that is not true and should never be felt. As the circle of life goes on, so does a mother. The lull that a mother has faced while raising her kids, is just a lull. Now is the time to embrace your space and to shine. Now you can get back into the things you’ve always wanted to get back into and try new and different things. Life is about learning and living, so as a mother, you’ve bestowed the learning and living onto your children, now its time to take your own advice and push yourself back into functioning society to be the force of power you want to be. When you begin to accept the fact that you can be the change you want to be, you will see how the way you see your life will change. Focus on the positive of nature and appreciate your physical being as well as your mental being. Follow the line that connects these two and learn how to control and channel the energy that makes you unique. As life goes on, so will you, and the way you approach every phase can make the difference. As the saying goes, “every situation is what you make it”, you have to believe in yourself and have a positive outlook on how you want yourself to feel and be. If something has happened in your life that has taken you a few steps back, don’t let it keep holding you back anymore. Through the power you possess within yourself, you can change any outcome of your life. If you don’t let the bad times push you down and keep you there, you’ll be able to conquer every obstacle that will come your way, whether physical or mental. Life and people will consistently throw you lemons, but you need to embrace the power you have within yourself and, make lemonade! So start shifting those ideas in your head and
pushing out the negative thoughts and bringing forth the positive which can help change your life and help you become the person you want to be. Be everything you want to be and more. Not only will you thank yourself, others will gravitate to you because of your positive nature and energy. You’ll be a great role model for your family, friends, and even complete strangers. The final end result is up to you, and you will see and feel all the proof you need when you experience the power of the mind.
