Yeah, that's a good example. Our thoughts affect our heart rate and breathing. Did you ever read a really good book and suddenly realised your heart beats fast, because the protagonist is in danger? Sometimes I'm getting angry just by thinking about something, that really bugs me. Well, I don't know how to use this to achieve any goal, but it sure can be useful (somehow).

Oh, I accidentially locked the cookie monster into the basement.
