 Editor’s note: Last week we touched upon fear-based media. Research now shows that our sympathetic nervous system (fight or flight response) is partly to blame. We no longer need to worry about being eaten by a lion, but our body wrongly turns our fear response inward by creating irrational fears, anxiety, and psychological disorders. The only way to combat this is through expressing more love and kindness. A promising NY Times article agrees. –Ameeta |
