The Connection between Body & Mind

The 'Connection between Body and Mind' is a subject of consideration from the ancient traditions and modern scientific aspects.

We know from our experience that our own mental wellness impacts our physical motivation and likewise when we are physically unwell our mind can lack focus, attention and often ruminate on negative thoughts. So, what influences what more? Mind influences body or body influences mind?

Can having a healthy and peaceful mind contribute to improve health and even aging?
Can harmful emotions such as irritation, anger unsettle the mind and these states effect our health?

Every Sunday morning, we engage in a new topic to explore the various external and internal factors that affect our overall well-being.
