> Anxiety Is in Your Body, Not Your Mind
Yes, and, your mind is in your body, not just your brain.
That's why human consciousness is different to any common conception of computer consciousness. The difference between computers and humans is that human thoughts are driven by the needs of the body - to respirate, to eat, to defecate, to reproduce, to sleep, and to avoid being predated.
- taneq 6y agoExactly, and this is why all those "YOU don't do X, your brain does it" type things are so silly. "You" are your body. Your mind is something your body does to figure out where to get food and sex and how not to get eaten by tigers. Everything else is a crazy side-effect of this process.
- achillesheels 6y agoHow do you define mind? I would agree that the mind is regulated by brain inputs but not sufficiently. It is self-determining.
