It's nearly December the 1st and the ramping up of all things Christmas.
Did you know we have a mechanism in our brains that connects our own experiences to those of others?
It helps us to understand their intentions, emotions, and actions by internally simulating them. Our brains neurons fire when we do actions and when we see others perform actions.
They are called mirror neurons and their full impact is still being researched. They are thought to help us learn new things by copying; learn empathy for others by understanding how they feel, and increase social connection and maintain social bonds.
It's good to remember during this time of year where people have so many different thoughts and feelings and experiences, that the way we behave around others can directly influence them, and they can directly influence us.
Be mindful of what you are putting out into the world because your influence goes further than you might just realise.
Happy Sunday everyone 😀
