I think just about everyone has heard of the "mind-body" connection. What some haven't heard is how it isn't just a connection, but a melding of the mind and body. They are one together, not anything separate. (We know the brain is in the head, but the mind of the body is everywhere in our body???) But even still, it's the brain being told what the body is sensing and thus dumps chemicals out to the body...for the reactions we have.
Lesson over.
Yes, having a physical reaction can affect our emotional responses. But also, just like with meditation and calming (like some said) we can force the brain to calm our body when it responds to our calming mind/thinking.
It's a wonderful thing, this body of ours!
