Mind Games: Telling the truth is good for our health

Have you ever felt bad when you told a lie? It's a terribly unpleasant feeling, as if someone is squeezing your chest and throat. Palms sweat, breathing quickens, voice trembles, face is covered with spots or blushes. Not a very pleasant picture, right?

The most interesting thing is that lying is a psychological, mental phenomenon, but at the same time it causes a not very pleasant physical reaction of the body. If we lied, we may feel bad not only morally (just ashamed), but also physically.

In her TEDxFiDiWomen talk, Lissa Rankin talks about the relationship between what we say and our physical condition.

The most interesting thing is that Lisa Rankin is not a psychologist. She is an obstetrician-gynecologist and the author of two books in which she connects our emotional state with the physical.

The fact that all our thoughts eventually reflect on our body has long been no secret. This is the simplest proof that thought is material and has the most direct impact on our well-being and, as a result, on the world around us.

The body craves the truth

I've kept the truth to myself in a corked bottle for years. I hid it as deep as possible. I hid it behind the masks. I allowed myself to be silent so as not to create excitement. I wanted people to like me. I wanted to live in harmony.

But my body hated it. At first it just whispered, and then it turned into a scream.

When you try to suppress negativity in yourself, your body reacts to it physically and begins to produce stress hormones, blood pressure rises, heart rate increases and immunity decreases.

When you tell the truth, the body and muscles relax, blood pressure returns to normal, the pulse drops and hormones of happiness begin to be produced.

Telling the truth, you are arranging preventive therapy for yourself

Three years ago, the Fox started telling only the truth, and her body stopped screaming, it stopped whispering. Finally, her body found peace.

There is no turning back here. Once you wake up your body, find your voice, you will no longer be able to silence it. Some people around you may not like it. Someone will not like your updated self. Someone prefers your old wrapper, your old «I».

But believe me, your real, real self can heal you when you're sick; support you if you're hurt; help you get up if you've fallen.

What truth do you want to tell?

Think about what you would say if you had 18 minutes and a huge audience? What truth would you like to tell and how to live? What do you really want to say to your partner, boss, parents, friends... the whole world at last?!!

What cares you so much that you look for it everywhere? What is your personal truth?

Tell the truth. Live as you think is right, in accordance with your truth and conscience, in harmony with yourself.
