Sample Book Insights:
#1 The doctor’s comment that there comes a point when modern medical techniques must give way to the body’s own inner logic, mechanisms, and intentions is a profound truth. The body not only controls the ultimate transition from life to death, but also manages the process of health and healing.
#2 The musculoskeletal system is the foundation of the body’s command role. It is extremely simple and strong, and it is perfectly suited to the purpose of moving the body. The nervous system overlaps and merges with the musculoskeletal system.
#3 Pain is a form of high-priority communication. It warns of impending danger. The body is a motion machine, and we are here to move. We are unlikely to ever need to limit or manage our muscle-bone movement, but we have chosen to attack the mechanisms that protect our health and keep us pain free.
#4 The human body is designed to move. We are not simply instinctive animals that can only move under our own volition. We evaluate, deliberate, and choose. Our reactions to external stimuli keep the body fueled and capable of motion.
