Spontaneous self-affirmation has been associated with more positive perceptions of communication with one’s medical provider

We all know that going to the doctor can be a bit of a drag. But what if we told you that there's a simple trick to make your next visit a little more bearable? A study conducted in the US found that spontaneous self-affirmation can make a big difference in how patients perceive their healthcare experiences.

Here's what the study found:

🧠 Spontaneous self-affirmation (like reminding yourself of your strengths and values) can reduce defensiveness and promote prosocial behavior.

👩‍⚕️ Patients who engaged in self-affirmation had more positive perceptions of their healthcare providers and the quality of care they received.

🤔 They were also more likely to ask questions during medical appointments and seek out health information for themselves and others.

So, next time you're feeling a little nervous about a doctor's visit, take a moment to remind yourself of all the awesome things you bring to the table. It might just make all the difference!

IT’S SCIENCE, YOUR MENTAL HEALTH IS LINKED TO YOUR PHYSICAL HEALTH

Ancient intuition and modern research CAN NOW HIGHLIGHT the strong connection between mental and physical health. Unhealthy emotions or the suppression of healthy emotions can lead to chronic diseases and autoimmune manifestations.

Here’s the dirt:

  • Negative emotions, such as anxiety, are associated with cardiovascular disease, asthma, and hypertension.

  • Positive emotions are linked to lower blood pressure, reduced cardiovascular risk, healthy blood sugar levels, and increased longevity.

  • Positive emotions activate reward pathways in the brain, promoting feelings of well-being and potentially leading to better overall health.

  • Amygdala activation, related to negative emotions, is involved in processing emotions and regulating stress responses.

  • Promoting positive emotions and resilience can enhance physical well-being and emotional health.

  • Emotional responses can be learned through methods such as quiet time, cognitive therapy, and self-reflection.
