LHSC – Module ONE Step #17

previousOur minds have been driven
since ancient times – caveperson times –
to protect us from threats and keep us safe.
In caveperson times there were a lot of very real threats to safety:
lack of food, water or shelter, predators like tigers and bears,
and being rejected from a social group, which cavepeople formed
to increase their safety (ever heard the phrase, ‘safety in numbers’?!).
Even today, despite our evolution as people – no longer living in caves
or at regular threat of harm from bears – our minds look for threats,
and give us thoughts and feelings to make sure we notice threats
and to try to avoid them.
21/27Thanks,
mind!
