Reasons why having a good blub is good for you
Most people will hold back tears or emotional upset so as not to look weak, silly or because they are worried others will perceive it as a loss of control. Crying tears is something which is unique to humans, whether it is tears of joy or sadness. However, having a good cry every once in a while is actually very good for you and can help your emotional wellbeing. We have a look at some of the reasons why letting yourself go and having a good cry can be good for you.
Studies have found that crying can help the body to relax and that once a person has given into their emotions and cried the body changes from a state of high arousal to one that is more relaxed. Breathing slows as does a person’s heart rate and blood pressure can also lower.
Being able to acknowledge your feelings is good for your emotional wellbeing and helps people to deal with them rather than bottling them up. It acts as a release enables you to understand yourself better and deal and recover from stress, anger and sadness naturally. Burying your emotions can also affect your short-term memory.
Crying also helps to relieve stress and get rid of stress hormones in the body. Researchers have found that tears contain these stress hormones which can damage every system in our body, including our brain cells. Crying is a natural way to get rid of these harmful hormones.
It can help to strengthen bonds in humans. When a person cries, they are in a vulnerable state emotionally and the tears cloud their eyes and therefore their judgment. When you are in this deteriorated state someone usually cares for you reinforcing ties and connections between humans.
Tears don’t just contain stress hormones, but many other chemical components. When a person cries it is a normal way for the body to release and rid the body of these toxins and waste material which could potentially harm us.
Crying may also help the body to prevent bacterial growth on the surface of the eye as the tears contain an element called lysozyme. Tears that don’t make it to the surface of the eye, drain through to the nose which helps to keep the nose moist and again the lysozyme prevents bacterial growth in the nose.
Crying can reflect deep feelings within a person and can help them to get over pain or hurt. It’s a valve to release emotions and can help a person’s to get over a sad occasion such as the death of someone. Research have found that crying during a grieving process helps people to look and feel better.
