Jordan Peterson on Lobsters
Importance of straightening up posture. (short video)
Short Story:
- Lobster looses fight: hunches over.
- Wins the fight: widens himself.
Lobster runs on: Serotonin aka 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT).
- Wins: serotonin levels go up.
- Looses: serotonin levels go down.
If you give low serotonin lobster, equivalent of anti-depressants, he will go fight again.
