Healing People: 7 Traits

Healing people are happy and inspiring. They infect you with positivity, and being around them makes you feel good. We can explain this with what are called “mirror neurons”, which we use for empathy. The way they work is that they mimic the feelings of people around you.

When it comes to your mood, which plays into your health, emotions are not the only factor. The people you interact with are also important, because without you realizing it, you always take energy from the people around you.

Experts like John Mattone say that it is important to choose well when it comes to your intimate environment. You need to surround yourself with people who will lift you up and help you grow.

Healing people agree perfectly with that idea. They are the kind of people who give off positive energy and help you get through your life. So now you have to ask yourself: what actions, events and people give you positive energy?

People around you play a role in your mental health

Do you feel better when you are with your friends? In that case, it happens because good friendships improve the quality of life and mental health. Researchers from Brigham Young University studied this with 300,000 people over the age of seven.

They said that relationships are like a protective barrier because they activate the immune system and reduce the risk of getting sick, either physically or mentally.

People with a large circle of friends have a 22% lower risk of dying. These statistics come from a decade-long study of more than 500,000 people and published in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health.

In another study from the University of California, the results became even clearer. They conducted it in 2006 with over 3,000 women with breast cancer. They showed that women who did not have close friends were four times more likely to die from the disease than women who had ten or more friends. In other words, having friends, especially good friends, changes the way your brain works, especially the reward centers.

• creates a safe shelter. No one can stop tough times from getting into your life, but if you have a healthy environment, you will be in a better place to deal with them.

On the other hand, when you are around optimists, you become happier and healthier thanks to the mirror neurons we mentioned.
