There are two distinct ways of perceiving and acting upon physiological processes: first, one can perceive a
body and act upon a body; second, one can perceive a soma and act upon a soma. The first instance is a third-person standpoint
that sees an objective body "there", separate from the observer -- a body upon which the observer can act, for example, a doctor
"treating" the patient. The second instance is a first-person standpoint that sees a subjective soma "here": namely, oneself --
ones own soma, upon whose process one can personally work, oneself. A soma, then, is a body perceived from within.
