Stress Management Through Mirror Neurons
Mirror neurons, brain cells that fire both when we perform an action and when we observe someone else doing the same, play a pivotal role in stress management. These neurons help us empathize and understand others' emotions, which can significantly reduce stress by fostering social connections and emotional regulation. By engaging in positive social interactions and observing calm, relaxed behaviours, we can activate these neurons to mirror those emotions within ourselves, effectively managing stress and promoting emotional well-being.
