It's amazing how much of the language of Cartesian dualism remains in medicine and science, particularly in "integrative medicine," which has a whole branch it calls "mind-body" medicine. Here's a clue: The "mind" is the manifestation of an organ in the body, the brain.https://twitter.com/CreativeTweets/status/1006903373315084288 …

The whole "mind-body" dichotomy is pretty misleading, though. I believe in science-based medicine, and I also realize that our brains are just another organ that came along for the evolutionary ride. The mind is just a construct that lets us pretend we are separate from nature.
