AND
AND I
AND I KNOW...NOT EVERYONE TODAY AT COSTCO WAS LOADING UP
ON PAPER PRODUCTS.
BUT SEVERAL WE TALKED
TO SAID THEY WERE JUST
STOCKING UP...BETTER
SAFE THAN SORRY.
BUT WHAT IS HAPPENING
THAT IS CAUSING US TO
TURN COSTCO TOILET
PAPER...INTO AN ACTUAL
COMMODITY?
WHY...IN UNCERTAIN
TIMES LIKE THESE...DO WE
CREATE MORE
UNCERTAINTY WITH
THINGS WE USUALLY TAKE
FOR GRANTED?
FOR THAT ANSWER WE
SAT DOWN WITH DR
SCOTT HOOPES...A
PSYCHIATRIST IN
MERIDIAN...AND ASKED
ABOUT OUR TENDANCY
TOWARD TREPIDATION.
TOWARD TREPIDATION.
DR
DR HOOPES
DR HOOPES TRIED TO EXPLAIN THE CIRCUITRY OF THE BRAIN TO
ME...THINGS LIKE THE
DEFAULT MODE NETWORK
VERSUS THE DORSAL
ACTIVITY
NETWORK...BASICALLY THE
TIMES WHEN WE ARE IN
OUR HEADS OR WE ARE
ACTIVE AND DOING STUFF.
HE SAYS THE ACTIVE AND
DOING STUFF PART...KEEPS
US FROM FOCUSING ON
THE NEGATIVE...WHEN WE
ARE DOING NOTHING AND
INSIDE OUR HEADS.
SO BE ACTIVE...BY
GETTING
INFORMED...MAKE A
PLAN..FOLLOW IT
THROUGH.
BUT MOST
IMPORTANTLY...FIND
PEOPLE WHO ARE
CALMING AND
POSITIVE...CHOOSE TO
HANG OUT WITH THEM.
IT'S OK TO CALM
DOWN...TAKE A
BREATH...LEARN THE
FACTS.
PREPARE...IF YOU FEEL THE
NEED.
BUT DO RIGHT BY
OTHERS.
IT'S OK TO NOT BE
VULNERABLE..AS LONG AS
YOU REALIZE THAT
OTHERS OUT THERE MAY
BE.
