The mind and body are not separate units, but one integrated system. How we act and what we think, eat, and feel are all related to our health. Physicians should be capable of teaching this behavior to patients.

The body has a mind of its own.
Thinking of disease constantly will intensify it. Feel always 'I am healthily in body and mind'.
Similarly, thought is a system. That system not only includes thought and feelings, but it includes the state of the body; it includes the whole of society - as thought is passing back and forth between people in a process by which thought evolved from ancient times.
It is the mind that makes the body.
Health is not a condition of matter, but of Mind.
There is no separation between mind and body... Self and other co-arise and fall away all the time.
The mind must be cured as well as the body, as the mind so is the body.
The mind controls so much of the body. We are much more than flesh and blood; we are complex systems. Patients do better when they have faith that they're going to do better. That's why I always tell my patients and their families not to neglect their prayers. There's nobody I don't say that to.
Consciousness is what makes the mind-body problem really intractable.
To me, body and mind are different aspects of specific biological processes.
