Question

The mind-body connection can be exhibited by which of the following?

A. Fight-or-flight response
B. Headaches, dry mouth, fatigue, and feelings of anger.
C. Distress
D. Eustress

Answer 1

The mind-body connection is the idea that what happens with our bodies affects our minds,
and what happens with our minds also affects our bodies.

Take a look at B.

Headaches, dry mouth, fatigue, and anger.

Like I explained before,
physical signs can cause mental signs.
And mental signs can also be caused by physical signs.

Does it make sense that long and persistent headaches can make people cranky?

And when we are angry, adrenaline is pumped through our bodies.

One of the effects of adrenaline is dry mouth.

Basically, anger can lead to a dry mouth.
