What is Self Image?

My new podcast alternates the field of Ayurveda with the field of Psychology every week. The primary reason for this is that these are the core of my way of life and expertise. But more than that, it is my way of showing you just how intertwined they are. 

They go hand in hand and we could simply say that it’s two ways of explaining the same thing but arising in different times and places of humankind.

This weeks episode brings the notion of “self image” into the light. 

It’s not truly a concept coming from the field of Psychology but interestingly enough from the cosmetic surgeon Maxwell Maltz in the 1960’s. 

What he realised was actually that the power of the mind is far beyond what we think since our mind can make us see things that aren’t visible to the naked eye.

And this is, due to the choice of perception we have made. 

But not consciously.
