Poor Posture Can Have Consequences On The Body And The Mind
It Affects Respiration And Causes Back Pain, Headaches, Mental Stress, And Acid Reflux
A poor posture not only affects the musculoskeletal system, leading to back pain and joint pain but also can harm other parts of the body. It prevents proper respiration, because of the position of the diaphragm. Also, the stress on the neck can cause headaches, hip and lower joint pain due to the muscles imbalances due to poor posture. Slouching also causes organ compression in the abdominal area, resulting in acid reflux and heartburn, and the body has to make an extra effort to digest food. Another consequence is the physical and mental stress caused by the misalignment of the body, leading to pain and loss of motivation. More Information click here.
Neurons Can Rewrite Traumatic Memories, Reducing Fear And Anxiety
This Is Done Through A Process Called Exposure Therapy
Traumatic memories caused by stressful events can stay in the mind, resulting in depression, chronic anxiety, phobias and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). There is a way of removing these memories, called exposure therapy, in which the patient is re-exposed the distressing stimulus in a controlled environment, breaking the relation of fear or anxiety. This therapy works on a cellular level, in which the neurons rewrite traumatic memories. However, researchers are not certain how neurons store the traumatic memories. They have associated the reduction of long-lasting trauma with the activation of the same neurons involved in memory storage located in a part of the hippocampus. These neurons are used for memory retrieval and abatement of fear. Also, the brain seems to generate new neurons, a process called neurogenesis. In tests with laboratory animals, scientists could review that certain neurons were active in the presence of fear, but decreased their activity after exposure therapy. Additional details click here.
