Study Suggests , Perception of Time , Can Impact Our Ability to Heal.<br />PsyPost reports that new research suggests <br />that how we perceive time can significantly <br />impact our body's ability to heal. .<br />The findings, published in 'Scientific Reports,' <br />provide evidence to support the powerful link that <br />exists between our minds and our physical health.<br />Researchers found that people's <br />wounds healed faster when they <br />believed that more time had elapsed.<br />We go through life acquiring different beliefs based on what <br />we learn and from our personal experiences, many of which influence us without our <br />conscious awareness, Peter J. Aungle, Study author and a PhD <br />candidate at Harvard University, via PsyPost.<br />... e.g. beliefs about whether <br />we’re likely to get sick, how quickly <br />we’re likely to heal, the signs that <br />mean we’re getting older, and so on, Peter J. Aungle, Study author and a PhD <br />candidate at Harvard University, via PsyPost.<br />PsyPost reports that the findings suggest psychological <br />constructs, like our perception of time, can exert <br />a direct influence on our physical health outcomes.<br />It is often worth noticing our <br />implicit beliefs, especially when <br />they’re counterproductive <br />(e.g. expecting to heal slowly), <br />and questioning them, Peter J. Aungle, Study author and a PhD <br />candidate at Harvard University, via PsyPost.<br />How do we know they’re accurate? What alternative beliefs might be equally valid in this context? Are any of the equally valid alternatives more constructive? , Peter J. Aungle, Study author and a PhD <br />candidate at Harvard University, via PsyPost.<br />How do we know they’re accurate? What alternative beliefs might be equally valid in this context? Are any of the equally valid alternatives more constructive? , Peter J. Aungle, Study author and a PhD <br />candidate at Harvard University, via PsyPost.<br />Why not believe one of those instead? <br />That’s the idea – keeping our minds <br />and our bodies mutually aligned, Peter J. Aungle, Study author and a PhD <br />candidate at Harvard University, via PsyPost.<br />The findings reportedly took into account <br />a number of potential variables, including <br />age, stress, anxiety and depression.<br />However, PsyPost points out that the subjective <br />nature of time perception and its variability <br />across individuals makes it difficult to <br />fully understand the mechanisms at play.
