State of consciousness= a pattern of subjective experience, a way of experiencing internal and. Altered state of consciousness- refers to variation from our normal walking state.

My response: I agree that being a part of the white society is like the concept of invisible privilege that has a familiar simile in that it is analogous to an invisible weightless knapsack. This metaphor emphasizes that white privilege, even though it may not be immediately obvious, has considerable advantages and opportunities that may include a lot of benefits and freedom to life. White people benefit from the structures and institutions in which they live. In the same culture, they were trained to be oblivious to their benefits. The undeserved advantages that were created by white people made people of color feel as if they were being oppressed. It is a norm and dominating racial power to be white in this society. For instance, if a white person comes into a new neighborhood, they are fairly certain that the bulk of their neighbors are the same color as them. A person has no idea of the advantages they have until they put themselves in the shoes of other people of color. Peggy McIntosh said that white advantages don't originate from a fault in a single human or from a single individual using them. It is via an inherent fault in the system that white privilege is created. If we wish to effect systemic change, it must occur inside the system. Systems have a major impact on individual behavior in the social world. We may all do our part to hasten the end. McIntosh maintains that white people may see racism in a different way when something gives them an advantage over others, not because it benefits white people. Systemic oppressions have interactive and internalized characteristics. Teaching racism as an act rather than an overall system that advantages the dominant group makes it difficult for white people to see themselves as racists. Embedded systems can't be eliminated, the recognition of them is important. Change won't come from just being dissatisfied with the system. McIntosh's example offers many benefits for comprehending white privilege. There are many advantages to understanding white privilege as the McIntosh example demonstrates. While it is true that 'whiteness' is simply about skin color, the various definitions of race reveal that it is really much more than that. The fact that McIntosh refers to white advantage rather than non-white disadvantage when framing the discussion of race reinforces the overall idea that race should be seen in terms of advantage rather than disadvantage.

Correlation Between Human Body And Mind

Each affects the other, but it's much more complicated, above and below.

We tend to think of physical health as the physical fitness of the body. Physical health begins with genetics and nutrition, which feed the health of your cells and tissues, which create the health of your bodily organs, including your brain, and your bodily systems, including the sensory and another system of your body and brain.

Above the level of the physical brain, we have the mind, the 'thinking part' of the brain, and the thought patterns we encourage and discourage in our day-to-day living. The mind and the brain also give rise to your spirits, happy, sad, excited, elated, depressed, etc. And your mind interacts with other people around you, in your communities. This illustrates the hierarchy of life, and the hierarchy of healthcare: genetics, nutrients, cells, tissues organs, bodily systems, body, minds, spirits, and communities.

Every layer affects every other layer. You can eat foods that depress or excite your spirits. Some people are genetically happy most of the time. Others are genetically more somber. If your communities, the people you spend your time with are innovative, adventurous, you will become more innovative and adventurous, perhaps more risk-taking. If your community is more caring and sharing, your mental health will be more aligned to caring and sharing. If your brain loses oxytocin, due to a systemic or dietary problem, or a hereditary factor, you will be less sharing and caring.

So, When you improve your physical health, you tend to improve every layer in the hierarchy. And when you improve any layer in the hierarchy, you improve your mental health. If you improve your physical health, by working with your communities, there are more benefits. If you improve your physical health by eating a better diet, there are more benefits.

If you or your family member is suffering from a disease, you should get a medical bracelets. If they will be wearing a medical bracelet you will have peace of mind and will be able to focus on your work. In case of any medical emergency, it will alert the relevant team and share all the details regarding medical history. You can mention your contact number as an emergency contact number, so if anything happens they will contact you immediately.

An example of physical health impacts mental health is this that when we eat more junk food we tend to feel unnecessarily bored. Our mood changed frequently. We feel down. And when you do proper exercise and have good food you feel so much energy throughout the day.

So this is how physical and mental health is interrelated. So you should learn from your own experiences. When you do certain things you will get certain types of results, so accordingly change the cause if you don’t like the result.
