Varios estudios científicos han concluido que los humanos están programados para ser amables y que los actos de bondad nos hacen sentir mejor física y emocionalmente y nos permiten prosperar como especie. “La amabilidad es mucho más antigua que la religión. Parece ser universal ", dijo el antropólogo de la Universidad de Oxford Oliver Curry, director de investigación de Kindlab. "La razón básica por la que las personas son amables es que somos animales sociales". No solo estamos predispuestos a realizar actos de bondad y generosidad, sino que según explica Richard Layard, un economista laboral que estudia la felicidad en la Escuela de Economía de Londres, "hacer el bien te hace más feliz y ser más feliz te hace hacer actos bondadosos". Este concepto ha sido puesto a prueba por la profesora de Psicología de la Universidad de California en Riverside, Sonja Lyubomirsky, que en sus experimentos a lo largo de 20 años ha podido comprobar en numerosas ocasiones que las personas se sienten mejor cuando son amables con los demás, incluso más que cuando son amables consigo mismas. Valoramos la amabilidad sobre cualquier otro valor. Cuando los psicólogos agruparon los valores en diez categorías y le preguntaron a las personas qué era más importante, la benevolencia o la bondad, se destaca, superando el hedonismo, teniendo una vida emocionante, creatividad, ambición, tradición, seguridad, obediencia, buscando justicia social y buscando poder, dijo. Psicóloga de la Universidad de Londres, Anat Bardi, que estudia los sistemas de valores. "Somos amables porque en las circunstancias correctas todos nos beneficiamos de la amabilidad", dijo Curry de Oxford. Cuando se trata de la supervivencia de una especie, "la bondad paga, la amabilidad paga", dijo el antropólogo evolutivo de la Universidad de Duke Brian Hare, autor del nuevo libro "Survival of the Friendliest". . #psicoterapia #coaching #psicología #salud #saludmental #terapiapsicológica #bienestar #chile #ñuñoa #psicoterapiaonline #terapiaonline #coaching #bondad #worldkindnessday https://www.instagram.com/p/Ck6tLBzODgP/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Harmonising Moods and Minds: The Endocannabinoid System's Role in Fostering Kindness Worldwide

World Kindness Day 13th November 2023

Introduction

World Kindness Day is an international observance that encourages individuals to be kind to each other and spread positivity around the world. A crucial factor that contributes to our ability to be kind and friendly is our mood, which is influenced by various physiological factors. One such factor is the endocannabinoid system (ECS), a complex cell-signalling system in our bodies that plays a key role in regulating our mood and promoting friendliness.

Understanding Endocannabinoids

Before we delve into how endocannabinoids can influence our mood and friendliness, it's essential to understand what they are. Endocannabinoids are naturally occurring compounds in our body that interact with the ECS. The ECS is involved in a variety of functions, including sleep, mood, appetite, memory, reproduction, and fertility.

The two primary endocannabinoids identified are anandamide (AEA) and 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG). These endocannabinoids bind to cannabinoid receptors—CB1 and CB2—in our cells, triggering various physiological responses.

The Role of Endocannabinoids in Mood Regulation

Research has shown that the ECS plays a significant role in mood regulation. Endocannabinoids like AEA and 2-AG have been found to promote feelings of happiness and reduce feelings of anxiety and depression.

Anandamide and Happiness

Anandamide, often referred to as the "bliss molecule," is associated with feelings of happiness and well-being. It's produced in parts of the brain that are involved in motivation, pleasure, and reward. When AEA binds to CB1 receptors, it can inhibit the release of neurotransmitters, resulting in a calming effect and uplifted mood.

2-AG and Stress Response

2-AG, on the other hand, plays a crucial role in our body's response to stress. It's produced as a response to stressful situations and helps to calm the body down, promoting feelings of relaxation. By binding to CB1 receptors, 2-AG can help reduce anxiety and promote a positive mood.

Endocannabinoids and Friendliness

Our mood significantly influences our interactions with others. When we're in a good mood, we're more likely to be friendly, compassionate, and kind. Since endocannabinoids play a crucial role in mood regulation, they indirectly contribute to our ability to be friendly.

Being in a positive mood can make us more open to social interactions, enhancing our capacity for empathy and understanding. These qualities are essential for friendliness and kindness. Thus, by promoting a positive mood, endocannabinoids can help foster friendliness.

Conclusion

While the link between endocannabinoids and mood is complex and still being explored, it's clear that these naturally occurring compounds play a significant role in regulating our emotions. On World Kindness Day, it's worth considering how our physiological processes, including the ECS, contribute to our ability to be kind and friendly. By understanding these mechanisms, we can better appreciate the interconnectedness of our bodies and minds and strive towards creating a kinder, more empathetic world.
