Lol.
From what i am studying, its not so much about belief as it is acceptance. Acceptance that the brain/mind is a powerful tool able to influence the whole body and possibly the cosmos surrounding "said body". Cheers

Mind–Body Medicine: Make It So!
i say, "i don't really believe in belief...", you say, "po-tAH-toe". @metametheus says, "This self-belief is fully embodied, and you will have a complete sensory experience of the belief"... i say, "Ah Ha! Toe-mAH-toes!"

You dont need a belief to experience. Tomato & patato.

Correct.
Belief changes the perception (i.e. interpretation) of the experience.

What determines belief?

Just wanna pickup on an interesting presupposition here:
This statement continues to peculiar dichotomy of Mind/Body.
When you have a completely embodied perception of embodiment itself, this dichotomy no longer serves or makes sense.
The brain/mind is part of the body. There is no separation.

"When you have a completely embodied perception of embodiment itself..."
Elaborate if you would for my edification...

So, if you consider the notion of embodiment merely as an intellectual exercise, a theory to be discussed, debated, rationalised, reasoned, etc... then you are in fact moving away from the experience of embodiment.
Instead... activate all of your senses.
What would it feel like when *all of your human self perceived the world?
What would you see when your whole human self looked at the world?
What would you hear....?.... smell....?.... taste...?
The mind is not the brain. It is the whole body.
Ever had a “gut feeling” about something?
Or knew something in your heart to be true, even as you had no evidence for it? Like when you know how much you love someone?
If you want to understand “embodied cognition”, then drop your total awareness into your embodied self. Sense your toes, the fibres of your muscles, the blood pumping into your liver.......

Also, how do you turn a quote grey? Also, steemit weirdly does not include first-authors (that is to say, your noble self @metametheus) in "replies" when i reply to a replier to me, whom replied to a reply meant for you... So "view full context".
p.s. How many licks does it take to get to the tootsie roll center of a tootsie pop?

Actually i was speaking in relative terms as they can be used to better understand whatever, as there is no separation to be found anywhere.
Interesting that on even a materialistic paradigm, doctors still divide the brain from the body.
