Your way of thinking can damage your immune health.
Did you know that how and what you think can directly impact your health? Health care practitioners and scientists have known for decades that our mind can contribute to both illness and wellness. The important field of psychoneuroimmunology explores how our thoughts influence our nervous system and immune system. When we habitually generate stressful thoughts, our nervous system becomes accustomed to triggering the fight or flight response, which, in turn, suppresses our immune response. As a result, we are more likely to suffer from infections and chronic illness.
