😰 Here's something worth sitting with: your anxiety is literally contagious. When you're stressed and worried, the people around you pick that up and start mirroring it back — it spreads like secondhand smoke. But the flip side is also true.

When Horses Smell Your Fear: The Science Behind Spooked Saddles | PEP UNLIMITED LLC A new study published in PLOS One suggests that horses can detect human fear through smell, and that this may directly affect how cautious, jumpy, or stressed they become around us.

You’re literally catching emotions like a virus 😷 #shorts #mindblown #psychology #Psychology #EmotionalContagion #HumanBehavior #Neuroscience #Trauma Did you know your emotions aren't actually yours? This video explains emotional contagion, where our brains mimic the feelings of others through the **mirror neuron system**, impacting our expressions, posture, and emotional state. This subconscious process, a fascinating aspect of **neuroscience** and **social psychology**, highlights how quickly an **emotional energy drain** can occur, even in workplaces.

The Wellness of Our PETS: Are We Projecting Our ANXIETIES onto Our DOGS? Ever look at your dog acting out and think, "Is it them, or is it me?" If you've ever wondered if your dog's relentless barking or leash reactivity is less about them and more about your own stress, you're about to find out. Welcome to the podcast that sits at the intersection of pet wellness and dog owner mental health. We’re pulling back the curtain on the incredibly complex human-dog relationship to ask a controversial question: Are we projecting our own anxieties onto our dogs? This isn't about blame; it's about understanding the deep, often invisible, connection we share with our pets. We dive into groundbreaking research from the NIH and top universities that explores how an owner's personality—things like emotional stability and even depression—can directly correlate with common dog behavior problems like aggression and anxiety. Discover the fascinating and slightly unnerving concept of "emotional contagion," the proven idea that dogs can literally mirror and absorb their owners' stress levels. We also unpack a shocking paradox: while a strong human-animal bond provides us with incredible emotional support, studies show it can also be linked to higher anxiety for the owner. We’ll examine how well-meaning training methods can sometimes make things worse, and what the science of canine behavior really tells us about creating a healthier, happier home for everyone. This episode is a must-listen for every pet parent who wants to improve their dog's psychology... by first understanding their own. Ready to transform your relationship with your dog?

I really really think that most people need to read #Jung right now! Especially 'Modern Man in Search of a Soul'.

The collective contagion going on is off the scale. Possession by the #archetypes & #emotionalcontagion being whipped up by different factions into levels of hysteria & violence. 🧵

How Anger Spreads Anger is contagious — in mice and in men. Our brains respond to the excited signals of others, mirroring their agitation.

Are you a #parent #grandparent #uncle #auntie or #caregiver of #kids?

If adults are #worried #stressed or #struggling children pick up on it due to #emotionalcontagion (see a previous post I shared today).

Being #calm ourselves helps #children we love as well
