Thoughts can influence physical health from "summary" of Change Your Brain, Change Your Body by Daniel G. Amen
Our thoughts have a powerful impact on our physical health. The connection between the mind and body is undeniable. When we think negative thoughts, our body can respond with stress, anxiety, and even physical symptoms like headaches or stomachaches. This is because our brain releases stress hormones in response to negative thoughts, which can weaken our immune system and make us more susceptible to illness. On the other hand, positive thoughts can have a healing effect on our body. When we think positively, our brain releases feel-good chemicals like endorphins and dopamine, which can boost our mood, reduce stress, and even improve our immune function. Studies have shown that people who practice positive thinking tend to have lower levels of stress and better overall health. Our thoughts can also influence our behavior, which in turn can impact our physical health. For example, if we constantly think we are not good enough or that we will never be able to achieve our goals, we may be less likely to take care of ourselves by eating well, exercising, or getting enough sleep. This can lead to a negative cycle of poor health and low self-esteem. By changing our thoughts and focusing on positive affirmations, we can improve our physical health and well-being. This can be achieved through techniques like cognitive behavioral therapy, meditation, mindfulness, and gratitude practices. By retraining our brain to think positively, we can create a healthier and happier life for ourselves. Remember, our thoughts have the power to shape our reality, so choose them wisely.
