When Mind Over Matter Is What’s The Matter
The term “mind over matter” has become synonymous with “pushing through” pain and suffering as if it were not real or of great impact in one’s life. Mind over matter is not the strong picture of admirable perfection we make it out to be. This approach rejects our body’s wisdom, shaming our natural cycles of rest and energy and ultimately it is planting seeds in our bodies for illness – from digestive disorders and auto-immune diseases to heart problems, even cancer.
