Understanding a bad mood because, people are calling you names and you get very mad. Smell because, is you cannot smell anything you could get very mad because you have to ask what someone is cooking. You use your senses to impact your mood because, it talked about how we can use our senses can change our moods. Body our sight, sound, smell, taste, and touch can control your mood. Calming music soothes the savage beast is not a new one. Smell can also affect the mood. And their mood then changes to match
They have also proved the quote by Hans Christian Anderson to be correct by showing that nature does have a huge impact on one’s happiness and mood. Muir and Wordsworth both show that the power of nature is enough to completely change a person’s day or even their life. When Wordsworth was feeling down and lonely, seeing the daffodils brightened up his day and their memory stuck with him for years. In addition, when Muir was terrified and tired on his journey to find the Calypso Borealis his feelings and confidence completely changed when he discovered it; he still considers “meeting” the flower to be one if his greatest experiences. All things considered, whenever someone is feeling distressed, gloomy, or even mournful, a little bit of nature could be just enough to cheer them
Stephen M. Schuller and Acacia C. Parks research shows that circumstantial factors do not adequately explain different level of happiness. Positive reactions will contribute to everyone’s happiness just as well as negative reactions do. I agree with Schuller and Parks when it comes down to where your happiness comes from. I believe your happiness comes from how you react to every situation in your life and how you let it affect your happiness. Therefore, I do not agree with Newman and Larsen due to him believing your happiness is out of your control. Newman and Larsen state that most of what influences your long-term happiness is not in your control. Most circumstances that happen in your
The mood in “The Pedestrian” by Ray Bradbury is, Eeriness. Illustrating this, firstly, is the quote “The street was silent, long and empty with only his shadow.” (Page 1, Line 31-32). It exhibits the mood by the eccentricity of the situation. The streets of a crowded town are empty at 8:30 at night; they are noiseless with no people to be seen. As a result of the oddity of the situation, the mood is Eerie. Secondly, in addition to the first quote, there are several lines illustrating the mood. A representation of this is the excerpt from page 3 lines 19-21, “Leaving the empty streets with the empty side-walks, and no sound and no motion all the rest of the chill November night.” This line is an exceptional example of the mood for several reasons.
There are multiple feelings, moods, and senses that people use every day. Two of the primary feelings used is
Mood helps in creating an atmosphere in a literary work by means of setting, theme, diction and tone. Throughout the book To kill a mockingbird the author wanted the mood to be sorrowful or vexed or just fret about how the people are acting because seeing how things were being treated or how people acted would be enough to make you feel angry or sad or worried for the people who were in the book. You always wanted to know what was going to come next or how something would end. Vex was a very prominent mood in this story and is definitely the most relevant.
The biological perspective examines how brain processes and other bodily functions regulate behaviour. It emphasizes that the brain and nervous system are central to understanding behaviour, thought, and emotion. It is believed that thoughts and emotions have a physical basis in the brain. Electrical impulses zoom throughout the brain’s cells, releasing chemical substances that enable us to think, feel, and behave. René Descartes (1596–1650) wrote an influential book (De Homine [On Man]) in which he tried to explain how the behaviour of animals, and to some extent the behaviour of humans, could be like t...
4) How this relates to the real world: This relates to the real world because positive and negative behaviors are displayed by terms of words and actions everywhere around us on a daily basis. After reading this article, I believe the mood maintenance hypothesis has a tighter grip on positive people. Expressing positive behavioral actions and words can change someone’s day. However, I believe using empathy is one of the strongest and most influential strategies to extinguish negativity. Empathizing with another person means to express a genuine care and share that persons state of mind, thus having a strong impact on that particular individuals feelings.
Emotion is often thought of as simply how one feels, but it is much more complex than that. Emotions have almost evolved as extensions of survival mechanisms and are essential to managing life (Schmidt, 2017). Without emotions, we wouldn’t be able to experience feelings in our lives. We would not get excited and nervous for the birth of our first child, we would not get angry when something we love gets destroyed, and we would not be happy when life is going great. Without emotions we wouldn’t be able to successfully learn and complete the learning cycle. Emotions, both good and bad, help us navigate the learning cycle and are influential to how we make decisions, reflect upon those decisions, and create new ideas for the future. According
The Travis Bradberry article “13 Things Science Says Will Make You Much Happier,” states that people shouldn’t give into fear and can’t be amazed of events. From the article, this quote supports not giving into fear “The worst thing that can happen to you is allowing yourself to die inside while you’re still alive.” Giving up shouldn’t be an option in life, it shouldn’t be just a button that can be pressed that stops happiness from flowing. People feel the need to be unhappy and they shouldn’t think to go down that path. Giving into fear is saying that there is no way happiness can come and there in no time to keep trying. Not Trying is not doing what is important and what makes people happy. The second quotes describes how technology can affect
It is a well-known fact that different factors affect on human behavior as well as various aspects of people’s life. Among them the emotions detect a powerful force on humans. Strong emotions may cause people to take actions they might not perform as usual, or obviate situations that they generally enjoy. Psychologists, researchers, and philosophers have proposed a set of different theories that explain how and why people experience the emotions. I have chosen two theories of emotion that I am interested in such as: the James-Lange Theory of Emotion and the Cannon-Bard Theory of Emotion. This paper describes those theories by comparing and contrasting them;
In the article, “Happiness Is an Inside Job”, Dr.Puff describes an instance where his patient Felicia was consumed with what her husband had said about her weight. This relates to cognitive behavioral therapy; since Felicia’s feelings, emotions, and attitude towards both her husband and herself were determined by her thoughts.For instance, Felicia knew that her husband regretted what he had said, but she still could not find the will to forgive him. The words that Felicia’s husband said to her, swirled in her brain and consumed her thoughts which resulted in her low self esteem becoming even lower. Also, those words about her weight resulted in her remembering other hateful and hurtful words that others had said to her. In addition, the psychologist
...ide of people, which is generally excited by happiness in the central case (Matravers 174). Music is not the whole part of the feeling; it just causes it (Matravers 174). When the volume from the music goes up, emotions will rise (Matravers 174). As the music goes down, the emotions decline as well (Matravers 174). The connection between music and emotions are similar to a mirror (Matravers 174). Whatever happens to the music, the human feelings will follow.
Have you ever wondered why people have certain reactions? I chose chapter eight on emotions for my reflection paper because emotions are something that everyone has and feels, yet cannot always explain or react to in the way you would expect. Personally, I have never been great at responding to emotions in a way that I would not regret in the future. Thus, naturally being drawn to this chapter as a way to expand my knowledge on how to react to things more positively. I also wanted to learn why I feel a certain way after events that would not affect most people and be reassured about my feelings. Opposite to that, it is nice to see that, while not always productive, others have the same reaction habits. Overall, emotions are a complicated
From the moment they wake up, people experience events that trigger certain emotions. How people react to these events may depend on that person feels during that event. In terms of whether our emotions control us or we control our emotions, I believe that to some extent emotions control us. Because we cannot change how we feel in response to certain stimulus, emotions control us. However, people have some control over whether or not they act on their emotions. Emotions at that given moment can influence our actions. If people can control their reactions, then to some degree we are controlling our emotions. However, the prompts raises several important questions. How can one’s emotions alter other ways of knowing such as perception or reason?
The twenty-first century is the era of technological innovations and new styles of communication. With the creation of new state-of-the-art computers as well as new advances in online communication, staying connected to the world and people surrounding you has never been easier. Arguably the most popular form of online communication, social media, encompassing platforms such as Facebook or Twitter, have become a primary source of communication and the feeling of connectedness in everyday life. The conversation before two-thousand and ten highlighted many favorable aspects of social media and how it positively encourages and facilitates human interaction and interpersonal communication. However, social media, throughout the online communication
