Things to do before going to a psychiatrist

Anxiety and negative thoughts are constantly in your head.
What do you do when that happens?
Do most people go to a psychiatrist?
You will then be prescribed sedatives and anti-anxiety medications.
But I have something to tell you.
that is
Mind and body unity
That’s the word.
This means that the mind and body are strongly connected and influence each other.
The mind and body are one.
This way of thinking has been around for a long time in Japan, but it is quite different from the way of thinking of Western medicine, which is the mainstream of modern Japan.
In Western medicine, problems of the mind are classified into psychosomatic medicine and psychiatry, and problems of the body are classified into internal medicine and surgery.
However, I think that this mentality is correct.
I think everyone has one or two things in mind.
I get a stomach ache when I’m nervous before a test, it’s hard to climb stairs after consecutive holidays, and when I have a girlfriend for the first time, I’m aware of how light her body is…
What I remember most is that Ichiro, who was in a slump in the World Baseball Classic, hit the center and won the game, and his physical condition improved tremendously the next day.
This is how the body and mind are connected.
However, the first thing you visit when you have a problem with your heart is a psychosomatic medicine department.
This is because I have experienced that the mind affects the body, but I have almost no experience of the body affecting the mind.
To be more specific, I have never had an experience in which my physical condition improved and my anxiety disappeared.
I think the opposite is true.
“I am suffering from anxiety and my body becomes heavy”
“I’ve lost my energy and just sleep.”
Such.
However, the mind and body are connected.
Anxiety and negative emotions, which are problems of the mind, can be improved by improving your physical condition.
Things to do before going to a psychiatrist
It’s about making you feel better than you are now.
You feel uneasy because you are not feeling well.
Because you are not feeling well, you become negative.
Your physical condition is not good, so you have no energy.
how to get in shape
Physical condition is controlled by the autonomic nervous system.
Heartbeat and blood flow, gastrointestinal digestion and absorption, body temperature and perspiration, cell synthesis, etc.
All of these are controlled by the autonomic nervous system.
When you trim the autonomic nerve, you will surprisingly be in good shape.
So where is the autonomic nerve, it is in the spine.
spine = autonomic nerves
It is no exaggeration to say that
If the spine is distorted, the autonomic nerves will be worse.
If you live with a good posture, your autonomic nerves will be in order, your physical condition will improve, and your anxiety and negative emotions will improve.
good posture
Place your palms on your waist.
Tighten the muscles on both sides of the spine just above the palm and arch the spine (I think this spine of yours is probably sticking out, but this spine is originally curved. there is).
