Bodymind

Bodymind is a concept used to talk about how our bodies and minds are connected. Our bodies and minds influence each other, which means that what happens in our bodies can affect how we think and feel and vice versa. For example, when someone is feeling very stressed, their body may get tight and feel tense, while their mind races with anxious thoughts. On the other hand, when a person is in a relaxed state, their muscles will often feel loose and their mind will be calm. The bodymind connection teaches us that in order to feel better mentally, physically, and emotionally, we need to find balance in our body and mind.
