In my profession I work more directly with bodies than minds. But to assist the body in recovery it's important that I know where my clients are coming from, their mindset because nothing will change if the mind doesn't co-operate. Our thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and attitudes can positively or negatively affect our biological functioning. In other words, our minds can affect how we heal.
To quote Dr. James Gordon, " the brain and peripheral nervous system, the endocrine and immune systems, and indeed all the organs of our body and all the emotional responses we have, share a common chemical language and are constantly communicating with one another."
So today I'd like to share an interesting video with you about emotions. It's a fascinating "Ted Talk" by Psychologist Susan David. She shares how the way we deal with our emotions shapes everything that matters. Enjoy! VIDEO
