Why do emotions play such a large role in our lives?
For instance whenever I am really upset about something my stomach gets horribly upset, and I feel like I were to if I was sick. This can work in the opposite effect, in the sense that positive thinking and good feelings can help a person feel better physically. It just boggles me how much the mind can affect the body.
Different emotions cause the brain to release different chemicals which can spread throughout the body and cause intensified feelings
ReplyDeleteThis is off topic, but different kinds of food can effect you body and emotions and mood too: brain food so to speak. I know that's obvious, but I have noticed with myself that when I'm sad it's probably better to eat something good for me, fruit or stuff like that, because it makes my body and mind happier. It doesn't help to eat the bad, greasy food as yummy as it is, like pizza, because I feel tired and slowed down. Does anyone else experience this, or is it just me?
