There are times that we disconnect - juxtaposed from when we actually remained connected.

Then there are also times that we disconnect- juxtaposed from when we actually then RE-connected.

When and how this all happens, IMO, is a Divine recipe of many multifaceted variables… so, this here is simply a nugget of “Ideal Harmony” 😉 if you are into that sort of thing.

Think of it as a Pinterest model for how to live a relationally integrated life of Mind & Body 😉

“Mind over Matter” implies that the hierarchy of decision-making is done  by mentally powering through and oppressing the body’s cries to get its needs met. “Suck it up” - “Don’t be a baby”…decapitation with power to the mind

“It doesn’t Matter” implies that the “it” is the thought that tried to stop the compulsion as not to go after the body’s urges (food - sex - drugs - social media ..).. decapitation with power to the body

“Mind in Matter with Matter in Mind” represents both the mind being located in the brain which is a form of matter as well as the mind paying attention to the body for its needs and input for decisions, etc. Re-capitation, Re-Union, and otherwise considered an inner happy and supportive marriage (if you think this way).

The picture is of the brain - matter. Within the brain is the mind seen by the thought bubbles. Each “bubble” represents a category from Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs. The nature of the brain depicted includes the brain stem. Two images that represent facial profiles, face too directions - one faces down the brain stem (history/past/unconscious/old stories…) while the other faces forward (inexperienced/future/imagination/anxiety). Keeping mind focused on the space in between - the Now - the Present - … the mind in matter with matter in mind.
