Unfiltered Emotions Unplugged Podcast is the place you can listen to and discuss emotional and mental health. I, Natasha Vaswani, coach/counselor and emotional and wellness therapist walk you through topics that add to our universal growth. As promised to you during my last episode, today I will discuss how exactly our emotions affect our bodies

You might think that I am just uttering some nonsense, however I am here to guide you with valuable knowledge based on various medical and holistic therapies

I must mention how much Dr Mona Lisa Schulz has taught me when it comes to the mind-body connection and the significance of our emotional wellbeing; hence if you wish to research more on this topic I highly recommend her book, Heal Your Mind, Your Prescription for Wholeness Through Medicine, Affirmations, and Intuition, by Louise Hay and Dr. Mona Lisa Schulz

So I will explain it to you in simple terms so that it is easy to understand and retain. Let’s first divide the brain into two parts, the right-side of the brain and the left-side. The right side takes care of our emotions and intuition whereas the left side helps us in making logical decisions and taking action.

Let’s presume that at this very moment you are feeling the emotion of anger, as it is a very natural emotion that all of us experience. Take consciousness of the right side of your brain and allow that anger to convert itself into an image. Then, focus on the left side of your brain and register that anger not with a feeling but a word to define it. This word might lead you to create an action

Once it is registered on the left side of your brain, your neurotransmitters activate a certain hormone which is released throughout your body. If it’s a happy emotion, endorphins, dopamine and /serutonin/ serotonin are released and if it’s a low-energy emotion such as anger, adrenaline and cortisol are released. As soon as certain hormones are released and secreted the whole body is alarmed and inflammation is spread throughout the body. This is the reason why medical science is researching more and more on cell memory as each and every cell of ours preserves emotions and the memory attached to it.

So the hypothalamus is that area in our brain that regulates eating and sleeping patterns. This is the reason why when we are angry we have difficulty in sleeping and may not feel like eating. If the anger still remains, the pituitary gland affects our eating and sleeping even further. As time passes by, the chemical symptoms are transmitted through the brain stem to your adrenal gland which spreads this throughout the body

You must be asking yourself how this is actually possible. This is because we all have a mind-body duo connection so whatever we think and feel is transferred into the organs of the body.

•We will discuss this more at length some other time but if you are interested you can research on medical intuition readings to further understand your mind and body

Eventually one can never get tired of discovering all that is within us in our brains through our thought patterns, and the emotions we feel in our hearts that materialize as a low or high vibration frequency.

This is just a little brief of how our emotions affect our bodies, but if you are interested in receiving more information you can check out research papers, articles and blogs on the same
