A Flexible Knee

I had a memory resurface recently that demonstrates how our mind overpowers the abilities of our body. Over a decade ago, I tore my ACL and could not move my knee very much. During my knee surgery, I underwent a spinal so I could not feel anything below my waist. At one point, the doctor lifted up my leg and began moving it around, bending and twisting it at the knee like a doll's leg. It moved with much flexibility. It looked surreal because it did not seem like the same, stiff leg! The concept was that I was capable of doing these movements, but my mind was limiting myself.
