Who do you think is really in control, your body or you?

What I’m asking is, are you in control of your body or is it in control of you? Look at it this way, if you don’t feed yourself and you don’t want to feed yourself, your body will force you to do so, if not, you die. Simple as that, so who is really in control?

Answer #1

Your body. If your hungry, you eat. If your sick, you stay in from work. We can’t naturally stop hunger, sickness, pain, etc. We must respond to our bodies needs.

Answer #2

body.

Answer #3

Well, mind over matter is a real concept. You can feel hunger, but not respond to it… you can feel pain, but not allow yourself to suffer through it. A disciplined mind is in complete control, however, the body sends signals to have a need addressed, and if we allow our disciplined minds to take control, the results can be fatal.

Answer #4

Answer #5

lol…just…lol ;)

Answer #6

There’s a new wave of uhm (theories i suppose?) coming out that talks about how the mind and the body arent really separate. So when you talk about you (i.e. your mind), to separate it from your body doesnt make sense because they are in essence one. Things you do to your body have an effect on your mind, and things that are technically only supposed to have an effect on your mind do affect your body. So I’d say neither, or both?

Answer #7

it depends.. if you take care of your body, ur body will take care of you…there fore you will be in control if u dont… ur body is in toooottalll control over you e.g i couldnt control an eye twitch cuz i didnt get enough sleep
