We’ve become a nation of people in search of the “magic pill” to solve all our problems. The pharmaceutical companies and the medical profession have conditioned us to expect there is a pill we can take to make us better for almost any ailment we may experience. And so we come to expect the same in solving our non-medical problems. Smokers want to quit by using a patch or having a hypnotherapist metaphorically “taking out their brain and scrubbing it clean.” People who want to lose weight look for the magic “diet plan” that’ll melt the fat away. And yes there are pills that purport to help smoker’s quit and people to lose weight.

Get in Tune with Your Mind for a Healthy Body
How many times have you heard the term “How in tune are you with your body” in connection with getting and remaining healthy? Our own Dr. Peter says this is the wrong question to ask, and a better one is “How in tune are you with your thoughts?” Our thoughts control our feelings which are shown to be a significant impact on the health of our bodies as we further understand what our bodies go through during times of depression and sadness and even anger. The benefits of “Getting in tune with your thoughts” are explored in the fifth installment of Dr. Peter’s Mind Body Connection series.
How Your Thoughtful Mind Wags Your Robot Body
Describing your body as a robot is probably a little controversial for most of us – it conjures up mind control and scenes from the movie “The Manchurian Candidate” if you ever saw it. But it’s happening everyday to us and for good reason – and there is nothing sinister about it. This concept and some others are explored in Dr. Peter’s fourth installment of his Mind Body connection series entitled “Mind Body Connection – Seeing is Believing.”
You Are What You Think Most About
The concept of “you are what you think most about” may or may not resonate with you. This concept has nothing to do with “the law of attraction” stuff, but more about your attitude and state of mind. How we feel about ourselves and our day is dictated by our thoughts. If things are going well and everything is alright with the world then we feel energized because our thoughts will be generally positive. If we’ve suffered some setbacks or had a bad day then we feel lackluster and even depressed as our thoughts tend to dwell on the negative.
The Power of Mind Over Matter
“The Power of Positive Thinking” and “The Secret” is two books that came to mind when thinking about the words intent and power of attraction as a way to get the outcomes you want. Whether you’ve read either or practiced their message doesn’t matter at the moment. You may even be skeptical and feel its all mumbo jumbo and the world and your fate is the way it is and you can’t influence it. I admit it’s a big jump from where most of us in working towards our goals feel manifesting them can happen just by thinking about them and asking the universe to take care of it for us. So instead let’s start in a different place.
