Conscious mind Quote by Harry Carpenter
““Every thought or idea causes a physical reaction. If stimuli are allowed to pass from the conscious mind to the subconscious mind—and are accepted—the idea or thought must be expressed, vocally or physically. If it is consciously repressed, then the thought will be expressed physically, for example: • Worry = Ulcers””
