I had a yoga teacher in a class tell me that stretching your lower back and hips causes your liver to release all the "emotion chemicals" it stores and that it's okay to cry in class and then get like mad when stretching didn't make me inconsolable ???

I had to be like Miss I don't think that's how your liver works ?

obsessed with the girl who says that if you lie on the floor long enough you will start to cry and shake because your body is 'releasing excess cortisol' like i just think you might be going through something girl

#lucy speaks #coritsol nonsense #so sick of how people talk about the body #i am constantly telling my mother in law that whatever fad super food or fringe medical thing shes currently advocating #is just not at all based in an reality of how the body works #shes conviced she has arsenic toxitiy from rice now?#and that sugar has made her knuckles swell #and im like i think maybe you have oesteoperosis and arthritis #because you hands joints are swollen and you break you foot like three times a year #and shes like I WAS A YOGA TEACHER I CANNOT POSSIBLY HAVE THOSE #two years later finally get her to get tested and lo and behold #osteoporosis and arthritis
