This is known as dualism. Dualism is the view that the mind and body both exist. There are two basic types of dualism: o Descartes dualism: The view that the mind and body function separately, without interchange. o Cartesian dualism argues that there is a two-way interaction between mental and physical substances. Dualism is in contrast to monism that states the mind and body are the same thing.
