Q Do you believe that diet could affect mental health? Please explain your answer.
A
Our thoughts are not separate from our body.
Think of ‘diet’ in terms of what we eat and drink and what we think and feel.
Negative thoughts patterns generate a chemical response in our system, that can lower immunity, reducing our ability to ward off stress, illness, disease.
Positive life-enhancing thoughts generate feelings of hopefulness that help us to remain calm and connected, to self and others. Negative life reductive thoughts can accumulate effecting our outlook on life.
The key is AWARENESS of life-enhancing thoughts and life-sustaining food, combine the two, and be mindful of the accumulation of negative thoughts and choices.
