Overview

The Magic of the Mind, the Music of the Body: The Scientific Connection Between Psychological Factors and Physical Health Do you ever think that your thoughts, emotions, and stress have as profound an impact on your body as any wound or illness? Yes, science has already solved this mystery. This book unravels the same magical thread that is woven between mind and body, and shows how psychological factors play a tune on our physical health. The First Note: The Devastation of Stress - Stress not only ruins your mood, but it also brings laughter to the cells of the body. Chronic stress increases the hormone cortisol, which weakens blood pressure, blood sugar, and the immune system. Prolonged stress increases the risk of heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, and even premature aging. The Second Note: The Tune of Anxiety - If the strings of anxiety and restlessness continue to play, the body becomes a terrorist. Hormones like adrenaline are released rapidly, causing muscles to contract, breathing to become rapid, and heart rate to increase. Persistent anxiety increases inflammation, disrupts the digestive system, and robs sleep. The Third Note: The Tide of Anger - When the lava of anger rains from the mind, the body ignites. Blood pressure rises, blood vessels constrict, and the heart has to work harder. Anger can quickly lead to heart problems, stroke, and even a brain attack. The Fourth Note: The Melody of Happiness But life doesn't just play the string of sadness on the sitar. There is also a sweet melody of happiness, hope, and positivity. Laughter, jokes, conversations with friends, walks in nature - all these add to the melody of happiness. These hormones increase oxytocin and endorphins, which reduce stress, strengthen the immune system, and reduce pain
