Today, mass media constantly bombard us with unpleasant news about natural disasters, epidemics, wars, etc.

All these things happened in the past as well – both, for example, in the Middle Ages and in the early 19th century. But radio, television, computer networks have made negative information accessible to everyone. The flood of this information, which has fallen on a person, can provoke fear of the future, distrust in one’s own powers, indignation and restlessness. There is chaos in our inner world, and that is why people so easily believe various smears.

Psychological action is the meaning of the work of an experienced psychotherapist, who uses his methods to restore people’s self-confidence and joy in life, and thus health. In the hands of different scumbags, the same methods can have a destructive effect – people lose the will and ability to solve problems independently, and they go far away from real life.

There were massive epidemics in the Middle Ages. What is happening today?

We often hear about self-immolations and self-destruction of large groups of people – all signs of an unhealthy society.

What should ordinary people do to maintain mental balance?

It is necessary to take into account some rules that are part of the so-called ecology of the human psyche, which determines our well-being, mood and attitude towards other people.

It is necessary to know that the word is the main means of influencing a person.

A word can kill a person, but it can also bring him back to life.

Self-belief is the inner position of a person, readiness for a certain action, situation, livelihood. Self-belief is created by a certain direction of thought. Each of our thoughts triggers nerve impulses, which are realized in the body as various biochemical and physiological reactions that regulate the functioning of internal organs and systems. This happens because any thought, character, memory provokes emotions. The brain collects everything around us – sounds, noises, smells, vibrations, colors – to use as the basis for our thoughts and emotions.

Emotions – both positive and negative – can be beneficial or harmful to the body.

Fear can stimulate the body’s internal reserves, but it can lead to depression. Short-term fear triggers the endocrine system and forces the adrenal glands to start secreting stress hormones, primarily adrenaline. In the end, the whole homeostasis in the body changes, the whole regime of its internal functions. The heart beats faster, blood pressure rises, breathing is faster. All these changes help the body to get rid of waste substances, toxins, and gradually return to its initial state. But if the fear is repeated often or lasts for a long time, the body begins to draw on its internal reserves and switches to another mode of operation – various diseases begin to develop, functional changes in the nervous system, intestinal spasms, stomach ulcers, thyroid dysfunction, allergies occur.

Prolonged fear suppresses self-regulation in the body and changes occur first in the most sensitive part; thin thread tears quickly.

Thoughts trigger emotions, which lead to various changes in bodily function that pave the way to disease.

You don’t have to be afraid of the disease, but of your thoughts and the negative emotions associated with them.

Emotions are like the color of our thoughts that weaken or strengthen our internal structures. There are centers of pleasure, aggression, etc. in the brain. and their prolonged triggering forms a general shade of emotional color.

Remember how often you wake up cheerful and happy, regardless of the fact that it is raining outside and you have a lot of work to do. Any other day you get up with the “left foot” for no real reason. Your heart beats differently, the rhythm of the pulse, the tone of the blood vessels and the level of hormone production are different. In normal nervous regulation, these changes help the body to get used to the position and respond accordingly, after which everything returns to its original state. If there are disturbances in nervous regulation, there are no more external stimuli, but changes in the body remain, the response to the stimulus remains. A person continues to feel fear, restlessness, a lump in the throat, breathing faster, blood vessels constrict. Such problems are also reflected in the internal organs and slowly contribute to the development of psychosomatic diseases, the cause of which is a disturbance of nervous regulation in the body.

In order to be healthy, we must learn to manage our emotions.

Raising emotions is not an easy task. We must start with our thoughts: we must try to think and speak only about good, pleasant things for us and those around us, we must avoid conflict situations, judgments or enumerating our grievances. Some interesting hobby or work and various methods for self-convincing help with this – autogenic training, meditation, and for the religious, prayer.

Negative emotions cannot be avoided in life, and there is no need to be afraid of them either – this in itself triggers a stressful situation. Our body also expects negative emotions.

It is important that they do not last too long. Long-term overcoming of loss, disappointments at work or with friends, unfulfilled desires – all this creates substances in the blood that work opposite to adrenaline. This leads to contamination of the body with salts, lack of energy, obesity. The body, however, accepts the disease as if it somehow came to terms with an unhealthy state.

But even positive emotions can be destructive. We all know that too much joy can cause a person to have a stroke, or that love can make him lose his run and not be able to sleep; this emotion overwhelms him so much that he really gets sick. That is why we rejoice and live in moderation and do not destroy our emotional balance. Biblical commandments did not by chance limit man in his experience of the world. They disapprove of too much emotion: the highest harmony is a balance of emotions.

We must control our emotions, not our emotions. This is the only way they help us stay healthy.
