The Conscious Mind: The Subconscious Mind

What is the mind? Obviously it's got to do with thought, so it's kind of related to the brain. And the brain's pretty important, the boss of your body, sending signals to breathe, pump the heart, move the muscles, and function.

Here's how the mind body connection works:

The Conscious Mind

This is the part that thinks. Your conscious mind makes decisions, reasons, holds preferences, makes plans, sets goals, and chooses what to think about all day. This is the part of your mind that enjoys free will. You also process what you experience in your conscious mind. You use it to imagine and create.
