The health truth behind emotions

Each different emotion will have a different impact on our bodies, our minds will deceive ourselves, but the body never lies, it faithfully helps us to accumulate all our emotions and reminds us to truly face our inner needs.

Understanding the deeper influence behind emotions can help us better understand ourselves and lead a better life.

01

If you have a heated argument with someone,

If you are not feeling well but have been arguing with your lover for 30 minutes, it will take one more day than before to fully recover. And if you always have a hot temper and have always been easy to argue with others, your ability to repair yourself is likely to be twice as slow as others.

02

If you're stressed out,

Short-term stress can boost immunity and stimulate the production of anti-cancer molecules for weeks, but if you get too much stress for a long time, the situation is completely different. People will have memory loss, poor thinking, decreased immunity, and reproductive ability will be affected. Stress can also intensify allergic reactions. In a state of stress, the patient's allergic symptoms can increase by two to four times.

03

If you keep things to yourself,

Women are twice as likely to die from heart attacks, strokes and cancer as others after a conflict with their husbands. But if you get angry and let yourself yell, it can also cause a lot of problems, and even a few minutes of explosion can cause a sharp rise in blood pressure and heartbeat, increasing the risk of a heart attack by 19%.

But even if you find a milder way to express your anger, such as impatience or complaining, the stress and depression that accompany anger is also unhealthy, and the immune system is more likely to catch infectious diseases after it is damaged.

04

If you're in love,

Love can promote the secretion of nerve growth factor for up to a year. Nerve growth factor is a hormone-like substance that helps the nervous system regenerate and improves memory by promoting the development of brain cells. At the same time, because people in love enjoy the satisfaction of being loved all the time, their physical and mental state becomes relatively stable.

05

If you're depressed,

In addition, another important function of serotonin is to help reduce pain, which should explain why 45% of people with depression are accompanied by a variety of physical pain.

06

If you can't help laughing,

Whenever the body secretes 27% more exhilarating beta-endorphins, the level of human growth hormone, which helps sleep and cell repair, increases by 87%. All this can be done by watching a funny movie.

Moreover, even wanting to laugh without laughing out loud can inhibit the secretion of cortisol and adrenaline associated with depression. People laugh and suppress a lot of unnecessary stress at the same time, thus reducing the incidence of heart disease.

07

If you cry out loud

Genuine tears contain a lot of stress-related hormones and neurotransmitters.

Therefore, it can be considered that tears are the way for the body to remove harmful chemicals under stress, and refraining from crying will prevent the body from detoxifying naturally, which will eventually affect immunity, memory and digestion.

08

If you're jealous,

Jealousy is one of the most intense and painful human emotions, but it is also the most difficult to control. Women are often jealous of possible emotional betrayal, while men's jealousy often comes from questioning their sexual ability.

Jealousy, which is a mixture of fear, stress and anger, triggers the body's "emergency response mechanism" and is generally quite intense. So, when a person is jealous, his blood pressure, pulse, adrenaline and immune system are threatened and feel very anxious.

09

If you can't let it go for a long time after the argument,

In addition to the fact that the moment of anger can lead to a rise in blood pressure, as long as the scene of the argument comes back to mind all week after the anger attack, the stress level will rise again.

In other words, if you've had an argument recently, you'd better try to distract yourself from it.

10

If you're hugging someone,

Oxytocin is the origin of intimate relationships between people, and lovers crave hugs and kisses precisely because oxytocin plays a role. When the level of oxytocin in the body increases, a large amount of DHEA hormone is released. DHEA can not only delay aging and relieve stress, but also promote cell regeneration.

11

If you count the happiness in your life,

Love, gratitude and satisfaction all stimulate the production of oxytocin. When you are cheerful or have a strong sense of belonging, the heart secretes oxytocin, which gradually relaxes the nervous system and relieves stress. At the same time, the oxygen supply of tissues in the body increased significantly, and the recovery speed was further improved. In addition, when people are grateful, their brain and heart activities tend to be in harmony. In this state, the brain and heart are the most efficient.

So how to manage and regulate your emotions?

(1) be interested in simple things-simple things on a daily basis are around you at any time for you to enjoy. Don't get into the habit of enjoying novelty.

(2) Don't always worry about getting sick-the most painful people in the world are those who always think they have serious health problems. They are always worried about their physical failure.

(3) make more good connections with others-people get more positive emotions by getting along with others. Every thriving person has a warm and reliable relationship with close friends and family. When you are with others, even if you pretend to be extroverted, you will be more bold, talkative, confident, proactive and energetic, and you will be able to get positive emotions from others.

(4) keep a cheerful mood and live a healthy life-it is always good to be humorous or happy and relaxed, while those who complain often become hospital regulars. Always keep a good mood, encounter troubles should also learn to be healthy angry, usually do more exercise, more relax yourself.

(5) cherish the present good time-there are many people who live in expectations, always focus on the future, and completely lose their most valuable and happiest things-the present time.
