It may be said that we think with our muscles in somewhat the same way as we listen to music with our bodies.
You surely are not surprised to be told that you usually listen to music not only with your ears but also with your whole body.
Few people can listen to music that is more or less familiar without moving their body or more specifically, some parts of their body.
Often when one listens to a concert on the radio, he is tempted to direct the orchestra even though he knows there is a competent conductor on the job.
Strange as the behaviour may be, there is a very good reason for it.
One cannot drive all possible enjoyment from music unless he participates, so to speak, in its performance.
The listener "feels" himself to the music with more with more or less noticeable motions of his body.
The muscles of the body actually participate in the mental process of thinking in the same way, but this participation is less obvious because it is less noticeable.
