Chemistry of feelings: how emotions affect our health Bashny.Net

40% of all illnesses– from nerves.

We should lightly let go of the reins, and the brain starts to bash our poor hormonal body with a sledgehammer. Forget auras-Maury and holes in the karma.

Nervous sores is not a mystical retribution for our sins, and the exhaust from chemical reactions, senseless (mostly) and ruthless.

Sadness

Melancholy, warm plaid, you want to handle and chocolate. With sadness the content of the hormones serotonin, norepinephrine and dopamine falls to the floor, but they gave us the joy of life and the desire to jump in puddles.



Craving for kastam – the first symptom of a lack of serotonin, by the way. Prolonged spleen slows down all metabolic processes and we lose our appetite –what to eat, if still lying on the couch and life is over? The body goes into power saving mode and performs its functions in some way. The stomach does not cook, sex reluctant, to move lazy. We want to shrink into a ball, as in mom's belly, because we begin to slouch. From such an unusual load back starts to ache and increases the risk of osteoarthritis, which in itself do not improve the mood.

What to do?

To increase the level of endorphins, the rest of the company catch up with him.Two of the most powerful stimulant – sunshine and sports to sweat. It should also throw into the furnace of the amino acid tryptophan – it will turn into serotonin. Real triptofana bomb – banana milkshake. Or a plate of good macaroni and cheese. You see a lot of depressed Italians? It is the same.

Anger

No matter what we fly in space and knowledgeably talk about Arthouse movies, with the perspective of our brains, we all still wild cavemen who have any trouble there are only two answers – "hit" and "run."

Anger – this is "Bay" need zasandalit in chief of punch and I want to pull my hair bitch who has the audacity to flirt with your man.

"Fight? Excellent!" says the brain and begins to prepare you for the battle until the last drop of blood. The level of adrenaline and cortisol jumps up to heavens.

These hormones that are responsible for fear and rage, respectively, making the blood thicker, to reduce possible damage from wounds, strain the muscles, make the heart pounding and clench your fists. Everything is fine, but the trouble is –I don't think you do with hoots will rush a boss or a saber-toothed tiger. But because all of this unrealized potential turns against you. Thickened blood with the heart beat leads to hypertension and shortness of breath. If you get angry often and efficiently – Hey, early heart attack.

What to do?

If your anger still is growing, there is an easy way to tell the brain "Pot, not boil!" and to stop the adrenaline infusion.

The signal "false alarm" is activated via breathing – belly breathe, hold your air for 5 seconds and slowly exhale.To make sleeping so have 10 minutes.

If you already carries, nothing can be done – have to fight.

Or to trick the brain, simulating a fight.You can brutally beat a pillow or alternately to strain and to relax all the muscles, which will remember.





Resentment

You won't believe, but the offense is exactly the same as anger.

Our ancestors were not offended, and at once charged the enemy in the scoreboard. Special mechanism for this emotion is not provided, and resentment is nothing more than repressed anger. Adrenaline with cortisoldancing hopak, and not finding release aggression literally blocks all inputs and outputs.

The digestive system is not working at all, so resentment deprives us of appetite and entertains constipation or diarrhoea for a change. My muscles are stiff from anger – that is textbook "pursed lips" and "lump in the throat".The immune system is also drowning in hormones, and swarms of microbes happily rush to the assault of the fortress, the defenders of which had deserted.

What to do?

In the first place – to unlock the clamped muscles of the neck, mouth and larynx that adrenaline with cortisol are the hardest. For example, you can gape and breathe so for 5 minutes.

Lovers pills can take fish oil, it quickly reduces the level of cortisol – like black tea, by the way. But the opposite coffee, so coffee talk brunch on the topic "what an asshole he is" — not working.

 

Jealousy

Do you pray at night, Desdemona? It does not matter really if your big love walked about the left or do you just have an overactive imagination – jealousy will make you miserable and paranoid fans of conspiracy theories.

Brain jealousy is carpet bombing norepinephrine, a stress hormone and fury. In General it is good, this is due to norepinephrine, we feel "I am the king of the mountain!", and energy the conqueror of the world. But an excess of norepinephrine makes us furious animals.





What there is logic, what is there "Yes I'm with the boys in the futbik drove"! Under the norepinephrine of rabies dark eyes, we are overwhelmed with the feeling of permissiveness and retribution.

And the adrenaline rush that would make you fear the consequences, and no. Moreover, because the curtains are well out vasopressin, which actually is responsible for the excretion of sodium by the kidneys, a sense of complacency and, oddly enough, the desire to be faithful to the partner.

But a wild concentration it makes us semblance rag doll Masha and legs become wobbly, a look meaningless, and the ability to adequately assess the situation and completely lost.

Chronic jealousy of them will give you depression and excess weight, will bring down the menstrual cycle and can even lead to infertility.

What to do?

Psychologists suggest to remember all the times when you were good fun and cheerful, but without it the cheating bastard. If you train long enough, the level of vasopressin will rise. And lowering norepinephrine will help long Hiking is moderate cardio-the load that will knock the breath (which is so superficial and all too frequent), but will soothe and relieve the desire to bury part of the forest.

Fear

And again on the scene the adrenaline with his new number titled "Run!".

This time his task is to make you a athlete who will be able to get away from an angry mammoth. All the fun happens in the sympathetic nervous system.

The mission control center compresses the blood vessels so that blood pressure has increased and you cheered the heart drives the blood with the speed of the car, "Formula 1" (muscles need lots of oxygen!), the skin loses its sensitivity to whipping the legs prickly thistles did not distract from the organized retreat – because of that fear all numb.

Pupils dilate to give you the opportunity to see the enemy in detail. There are effects – the same sympathetic system is responsible for digestion of food. When you are freezing, the stomach does the same thing, but the gut, on the contrary, relaxes – and so we're about to eat, why strain and there is something to digest.

This famous effect is called "the bear illness". Who of us before the exam did not run to the toilet ten times a day! Constant fear is a direct road to a stomach ulcer, gastritis and anorexia.

What to do?

Again, to breathe and to make sure that the breath was twice shorter exhalation, and the breath did not rise the chest and belly.

Or, if you have enough willpower to eat a bowl of buckwheat cereal and snack nuts. In cereals and nuts a lot of magnesium, which inhibits the processes of excitation and calms the nerves. published
