Disney Plus allows us to experience emotions like love and sadness through movies. In this episode, we explore the effects of sadness on the body. Physically, sadness is shown through tears, a drooping face, a monotone voice, and slow movements. It can also affect our nervous system, slowing down our heart rate and breathing. Chronic sadness can increase cortisol levels, but watching uplifting Disney movies can help reduce them. So, when feeling sad, watching a favorite Disney Plus movie can lift our spirits and strengthen our emotional well-being. Disney, once again, knows how to point each of our emotions by long distance. Most of the people that have been to Disneyland parks have experienced love, happiness, emotion, sadness, but know with Disney Plus, the new platform, we can have that feeling in the comfort of our house by experiencing it in different movies. Hello and welcome to this special episode of our series exploring the effects of emotions on the body. Today we are going to talk about the most depressing emotion of all, sadness. But don't worry, we are also going to add a touch of fun to this episode, thanks to our friend Olaf from Frozen, who once said, some moments are happy memories, some are painful lessons, but they are all treasures. Physical signs of sadness. Before we dive into the effects of sadness on the body, let's first see how it manifests physically. You know, that special expression of Bambi when his mom dies, or that sad songs from Beauty and the Beast when Belle has to leave and say goodbye to the Beast. Yes, sadness is often accompanied by tears, a dropping facial expression, a monotone voice, and slow movement. But did you know that this physical sign can also have effects on our body? Effects of sadness on the nervous system. Sadness can have effects on our nervous system, including an increase in parasympathetic nervous system activity, which slows down our heart rate and breathing. You know what that means? It can make us want to stay under the covers all day long and watch sad movies on Disney Plus. But seriously, this relaxation response can be a good thing for our body, if it's limited. We will also talk about the release of cortisol, a stress hormone which can be high in people who experience chronic sadness. And you know what? Disney Plus offers many films to lift your spirits and reduce your cortisol levels, such as Cocoa or Salve. To conclude, there you have it, our exploration of the effect of sadness on the body. We've seen now this emotion can have physical effects on our nervous, cardiovascular, and immune systems. But we've also emphasized the importance of finding ways to lift our spirit and strengthen our emotional immune system. And what better way to do that than by watching the Snippets movies that are filled with life lessons, inspirational moments, and lovable characters that lift our spirits. So, the next time you're feeling sad, don't forget to put on your favorite Disney Plus movie and let the positive emotions take over.
