What is instinct?

Instinct is a complicated term, especially how it relates to human health and wellness. In the world of animals, minus human involvement, it is often easy to see that animal species will have certain built -in factors or ways to cause to act predictably under different circumstances. Salmon will swim upstream to emerge at some time, many animals attack anything that threatens offspring, the animal in the corner either fights, runs or plays dead, and most animals build behavior in food search.

It is often suggested that modern technologies cause people less to contact their instinctive self and that they can be unfortunate because of the fact that they are controlled or never used their instincts. For example, what happens for the breeding/care of the child when mom sees a child for one hour at the end of a long working day, or how instincts are kept species when people use contraception? These questions do not represent an a valid judgment on such elections, andLE can slightly change what things could be considered instinctive, or make people realize that they do not have a "congenital" and traditional way, perhaps create discomfort.

There are also questions about what things are really human instincts or what are the innate features of people. There are several examples that are commonly cited, including instinct for survival, instinct of maternal and combat/flight reactions. Others exist, but it may be difficult to argue as fully instinctive.

Some people even argue whether survival is a congenital characteristic. Certainly it is not present to a large extent of newborns, young children and even teenagers. People will do things as usual, find a warm place to sleep and maybe fight if they are at risk, but it seems that the behavior of children is a constant and pulled out survey of a world that threatens survival in disease.

since the work ofHe puts you in the mouth and tries to choke it until the teenage goes too fast in the car, survival constantly risk. In addition, how a firefighter crashes into a burning building to save others instead of holding in front of it, and why instincts like hunger/survival lead to overeating that can shorten life? It is also necessary to impose a good argument that the collective behavior of the human species does not tend to survive, but to destroy species, by supporting various activities that can eventually significantly reduce the ability to produce food.

certainly have people some instincts that are considered very normal. Maternity instinct often occurs when the child is first placed in the mother's shoulders and the reaction can be observed chemically when looking at hormones. This does not always happen, and conditions such as depression after delivery can disrupt normal hormonal rates, changing mother/child interaction if a woman does not receive help. When the reaction is "like normal" strong protective feelings for the child can flood the mother and manyThey describe it as a sense of love that is very strong and intense because they know that there are few things they wouldn't do to protect the child.

The child also needs a mother instinctively, and in fact, the child can decrease dramatically without the consistent development of the child and sometimes the death of infants may occur. Although the needs of children are physically satisfied, without a single carer and an infant/nursing bond, anacitic depression may develop, resulting in developmental loss and sometimes in mental conditions such as connection failure. This scenario was observed repeatedly in orphanages and hospitals, indicating a strong social instinct in the newborn.

Another observable human instinct is combat/flight reactions. In situations that are perceived as dangerous, people may have a huge increase in adrenaline that cause either to ascend to danger, and fight it, physically or otherwise, or quickly flew from the scene. This can also break in people and people with panicThe failure may have a too activated system that signals a response to combat/flight when no danger is present. In all people, the danger may be real or perceived as real and can be physical or theoretical.

Perhaps the most difficult part of understanding the human instinct is that human brains are complex and can sometimes suppress it instinct or above them. People seem less associated with instinctive behavior than other animals, and centuries of philosophy and theology focused on solving the problem as to whether the spirit could be stronger meat, and many religions certainly correspond. From a pragmatic and scientific point of view and not from a moral point of view, the creation of this intellectual abyss between the body/spirit may not be too healthy, because it also divides people from what could be the most natural elements of their existence.
