The Mind is the master

When you are ill, your body aches. But everything else obeys the master and it is the mind.

Make a mental commitment to get well. Will yourself back to the road to recovery. Even if your limbs cry for mercy, believe that your body is getting back to normal.

For centuries, martial arts exponents have abided by this principle. It is called will power. It has been termed as determination. It has even been labelled as tenacity.

Basically, it's just mind over matter. Believe that you can conquer your pains and they will obey your mind because the human mind is capable of more wondrous deeds than your heart will ever dare to care about.

The path to good health begins first in the mind, then it spreads throughout the body.
