English term

I like a check-up from the neck up

English to Arabic Other Slang
Context: A person speaking in a video.

..So everyone goes for medical check-ups you know..You have a medical check-up, you take everything and you say I’m healthy..That’s stupidity..You’re going to cross the road and get knocked by a bus..I love to do a check-up..But I like a check-up from the neck up...I always check my attitude...

Discussion

Arabic & More Aug 19, 2013:
From the neck up... Refers to the head or brain. But here the speaker does not literally mean he needs a mental health examination or psychological treatment by a doctor. Every now and then he finds it useful to do his own assessment of his attitude and probably other things like his beliefs and behaviors towards others (whatever is mentioned in the video in this regard). It sounds like this is probably a motivational talk, and the speaker is encouraging others to check their own attitudes.
