You cannot control physics though. What goes on in your brain is entirely just physics.

We have a subjective impression of control, but that too is only the result of physics.

There is more to it than just "physics". I find the "Orchestrated objective reduction" hypothesis by Penrose and Hameroff interesting in this regard

I dont think you can just blanket it under physics. Plenty of controllable systems exist specifically due to physics.
