Psychological balance

Again and again, we could see that in the basis of the human attributes, there exists chemical information of molecular architecture and molecular motions. This algorithm is everywhere, from our falling in love and being psychologically balanced. .., all the way to the genetic code. Chemistry provides infinite ways by... 

In Lecture 1, we mentioned neurotransmitters and their relationship to our psychological balance, addiction, love, and so on. All of them involve the typical C—N bond of amines. In this sense, neurotransmitters constitute a hugely important subfamily... 

The soluble ionic material creates free ions, which are mobile and can move under the influence of voltage variation (electric fields). Living organisms have made use of this mobility and harnessed ions like Na+, K+, and Ca + in neurons (nerve cells). We discussed already in Lecture 5 the receptor (bundle of proteins) that opens a pore in response to the binding of serotonin. Once the pore is opened, K+ ions flow through the receptor and cause communication between billions of neurons. In the case of serotonin, this results in our being psychologically balanced. 

Although limited by dose-response information, impairment of both neurophysiological and psychological functions (including slowing of reaction time, balance dysfunction, reductions in cognitive function, and deficits of recall) has been associated with chronic chlordane exposure. ... 

Anxiety is a condition of stress or fear for no apparent reason. It is produced by excessive stress which, as we could conjecture, would upset the balance of neurotransmitters in the CNS and PNS. Besides the psychological effects, a person might also experience shaking, heart palpitations, Gl upset, breathlessness, and headache. 

In psychological terms, the length of the process would depend upon how many things the individual has to work through in order to achieve a sense of wholeness and balance.
