NOTE

Feedback loop mind-thought-physiology

It's interesting how you can sit and debate a topic like weather and sport and food, but you don't pause to apply those same principles to debate yourself. So that's what it means to talk to yourself instead of listen to yourself. You mention a sort of your emotions dictating your body and your body dictating your behaviour. And all that seems to happen at this unconscious level. This reinforcing loop, is called a thought performance interaction. It's one of the fundamental things that we discuss when you're working with an athlete oryou're working with a team just to understand how this chain works.
