I liked reading about the relationship between stress and our body’s immunity. It’s interesting to read about how our very subjective thoughts, feelings, and emotions can impact the way our bodies are able to function. Psychoneuroimmunology explains the link between the nervous, endocrine, and immune systems which then explains how our immune system can be either negatively or positively affected by our own mindset. It’s fascinating and very applicable to me, a college student who is constantly put in high-stress situations. It helps me to acknowledge that for a healthy body, I need a healthy mind. In line with this, I should try and be more mindful of my feelings and to consider my body at all times.
