Dealing with what I call, mental pathogens e.g. stress, anxiety, depression, sense of hopelessness etc.
Now they do have a place. With stress and anxiety comes an increase heart rate and deeper breathing which deliver extra oxygen to your brain and muscles for preparation for a fight or flight response to an emergency.
But that's it for me guys. It's open season on unwanted attention of mental pathogens.
I have called them mental pathogens and deal with them the same way the body deals with physical pathogens. eg. vires, bacteria, fungus etc.
By using our magnificent immune system as our guide and example.
Scout cells continually circulating in our blood stream, to detect pathogens at a cellular level called antigens.
Once detected and recognized, our immune system makes vast amounts matching anti bodies which bind to the antigens lighting them up for the large killer white cell called Phagocytes to come and destroy them.
Not to put a to finer point on it, Phagocytes captures, digests and excretes waste of destroy Antigen.
Let's do the same shall we, with mental pathogens.
