Physiology of Joy

Physiologist Dr. Doping tells about the consequences of emotional stress, optimum motivation and need for creativity. What are the possible consequences of emotional stress? Why is a high level of motivation of the result is weaker than at low or average?

If emotional stress primary changes add up to the limbic system of the brain. These are the structures that are built into the center of the brain: the hippocampus, septum, amygdala. During the first minutes of emotional stress changes occur in them on individual neuronal cell level. This occurs very quickly, but lasts for a long time. The effect of any action after the emotional factor sometimes lasts for weeks and months. To reduce stress – Phenibut, Phenazepam, Afobazol can help.

Following this, the brain mechanism run complex hormonal changes in the body, the main of which is the release of stress hormones by the adrenal glands. In primitive society it was very important for survival. But now the situation has changed: sometimes the one who throws these hormones, especially if it happens to excess, on the contrary, is more vulnerable to the action of emotional factors.

Feelings and emotions not only affect mood, but also on the functioning of internal organs. Those feelings have a specific substrate in the neurons of the hypothalamus, amygdala and hippocampus, changing all the biochemistry of the body, each cell changes its activity.
