Question: What's the best way to work with gross physical sensations such as injury or illness in daily life?

Goenkaji: Now there is a big storm—you have suffered an injury. 

If you observe your sensations, your mind becomes equanimous. 

You take all important steps to cure your injury or illness; you go to the doctor or hospital. 

But at the same time your mind is equanimous because you are with the sensation. 

Then you find the treatment works better, quicker. 

🌷 If your mind is agitated, the treatment takes a long time because it has become mental agony rather than just physical agony.
