No. 6 in Chef’s Man in the Mirror Series: My Brain Creates My Reality

Did you know that when you say something about your body, ability or trajectory, your body makes it so? The brain is a complicated organ that communicates through chemical reactions, nerves and energetic nuance to the rest of your body. When you speak something – true or not – your brain already believes it to be true, and sends impulses through your body to ensure that your physical being, circumstances and interactions with others match that “truth.” This is how we literally create our reality. And why, as Chef says, we can literally define who we are by what we say.
