The Unhealthiest Habit To Have

Whenever there is a problem that you

cannot manage in your mind, it is going

to come out through the body. We know

that there's a connection between stress

and heart attacks. But what exactly is

the connection? What I tend to find is

when I have patients who feel mentally

bad, suppress those feelings, power

through that stress that you feel in

your head is a signal of what's going on

in your body. It is a signal to slow

down. It is a signal to stop. It is a

signal to stop doing what you're doing.

but they ignore all those signals and

they keep entering and pushing deeper

into like the danger zone. So, it's kind

of like if I jump into a pool of water

and I hold my breath and I start

swimming downward. If I start to feel

like I need to breathe, I need to

breathe, I need to breathe, I need to

breathe. Those are signals for my body

to rise to the surface and take a

breath. What would happen if I keep

swimming down? This is what these people

do. They're getting all these signals of

mental stress, but they're so anhidonic.

They're so emotionally suppressive.

They're so avoidantly coping that they

ignore all those signals and they keep

driving their body forward until

eventually the body gives out. Boom.

being so mentally strong that you ignore

your body is one of the most unhealthy

things that you can do. And everyone

thinks this is great like oh my god I'm

able to push myself push myself to the

limit past the limit even more past the

limit. And what what happens when I do

that? I think of myself as someone. I'm

great. There are limits for regular

humans, but I I am conquering the body.

The body is telling me slow down. The

body is telling me it hurts. I'm going

to be better than that. I'm going to be

stronger. I'm going to be better. Right?

And if we really think about it, this is

what's so scary. Why do you need to be

stronger? Why do you need to be better?

Because deep, deep, deep down, you are

not happy with who you are. The more

content you you are with who you are,

the less you have to prove to yourself

and everyone else around you how strong

you
