Control vs. Taking Charge; The Consequences on Health
Words have meaning and how we label things can have meaning that manifest consequences in our physiology. For example, worry and fear will create a specific response in the body in a crisis moment, but if we hang out in those emotions or feelings for long periods of time, we'll destroy certain health aspects by way of suggestive programming within our conscious and subconscious response. The same fantastic neurochemicals created in a crisis to fight or fly, are destructive as a long term internal response. Likewise, the body needs to be able to respond to our ever changing environment to continually adapt, repair and maintain itself.
This episode is an example of laying down some basic bricks (metaphor) in building and developing independence for self actualizing health and wellness. The power of the words you use and "HOW" you perceive your environment will have a direct influence on the internal dynamics.
Cheers to making small shifts with potential big yields.
