NOTES

Narrated by Patrick Grim

Many people have heard the term "mind-body philosophy" used to describe the relationship between physical wellness and mental wellbeing. But mind-body philosophy in its truest form is so much more. It's a philosophical inquiry that has engaged great minds for centuries, going far beyond the simple idea of a physical mind-body connection, and seeking answers for some of the most complex questions of human existence.
