We need to recognize ourselves as the human animals we are, understanding that our meat suit houses all our psychological components and significantly impacts what we consider "self." The way stress shapes our bodies and behaviors can explain everything from lacking motivation to experiencing unexplained pain.
• Our biology is the most incredible machine ever created, far superior to any human invention
• Modern society conditions us to ignore physical discomfort through top-down regulation from the prefrontal cortex
• Chronic stress creates hidden tension in our bodies that manifests as pain, emotional problems, and focus issues
• Our bodies are tensegrity structures that need varied, constant movement to maintain health
• Emotions begin as physiological sensations before cognitive awareness
• The lack of species-expected stimuli in modern environments causes our biological systems to short-circuit
• Walking provides both physical movement and creates visual signals that help regulate stress responses
• ADHD often results from being conditioned at home due to stress rather than at school
• Like any animal, humans need touch, play, food, water, sleep, and social connection
• Satisfying these basic animal needs can resolve seemingly complex psychological problems
