I may be enslaved to my amygdala, but I do know rats are different from us. New York City Rats - They only go out at night, they are fatter than beavers, have shiny fur coats. They all seem to carry Fendi bags.
Rats have the great "brown fat", which allows them to burn fat fast. Do not trust weight loss drugs developed by testing on rats. They process fat burning much differently. Still talking to my mitochondria about revving up their engines.
They don't have ears though.
NPR did a story erasing stressful memories in rats.
They mess with the rats' amygdala.
Yoga is a tool to avoid the amygdala hijack -
when you wig out, go postal, choose your own term.
Yoga tip of the day: Full Locust Poorna-Salabhasana Each pose is made up of several components working together. Be happy to master a small part of any one pose.
Keep your legs straight, feet and knees together as you lift.
