Hola, querido hiver.

Si la foto de hoy te recuerda a cierta parte de la anatomía femenina, no eres mal pensado, jajaja. Se trata de un postre típico para la comunidad en la que vivo que se vende cada año para el día de hoy. Su nombre es teta de Santa Águeda.

Esta santa fue una mártir cristiana que murió bajo tormento. Este consistió entre otras lindezas en cortarle los pechos. Por eso siempre se la representa portando una bandeja en la que reposan sus dos senos cortados.

En Zaragoza tiene mucha devoción. Este día acude una gran cantidad de mujeres a la iglesia que conocemos como del Portillo para pedirle su protección. Yo prefiero pedírsela mientras degusto este manjar que está delicioso y sabe mejor por ser tan escaso en el calendario.

Cita estoica del día

No te dejes arrastrar por el torbellino de las pasiones. Por el contrario, ante cualquier impulso, corresponde con lo justo, y ante cualquier fantasía, conserva la facultad de comprender.

Marco Aurelio.

Mi reflexión

La insistencia de los filósofos estoicos sobre la necesidad de control de las pasiones se justifica por la enorme dificultad que entraña traerlo a la realidad. Estoy segura de que coincidimos en que emociones como la ira, la tristeza, la rabia, el rencor… son perniciosas y cuanto más las mantengamos a raya, mejor nos sentiremos.

Pero, ¿qué hay de las emociones que consideramos positivas? Solemos considerarlas merecedoras de experimentación cuanto más a menudo mejor, ¿verdad? Esa y no otra es la trampa. Lo saben bien los expertos en neuromarketing. Cuando dirigen sus campañas hacia nuestras entrañas, apelando a nuestros instintos, están llamando directos a nuestro cerebro y porque tienen asegurada una respuesta por nuestra parte. Les estamos premiando hasta cuando sentimos asco o rechazo, pues su objetivo es que actuemos y les vale cualquier reacción que se produzca.

¿Cuál es el motivo de ese interés? Gracias a mis estudios sobre neuropsicología conozco algunos de los mecanismos que nos gobiernan. Porque, querido amigo, siento comunicarte que somos marionetas casi en cada minutos de nuestra vida. Unas veces dirigidos por sibilinas fuerzas externas y otras por las internas, que son infinitamente más poderosas que las anteriores.

Nuestros apetitos son fruto de la combinación de neurotransmisores que recorren nuestras redes neuronales. Estos se encargan de llevar señales de aquí para allá, estimulando unas zonas y anulando la excitación de otras. En función de quién esté ganando la batalla en cada momento nos sentimos mejor o peor. Es pura química. Comprender esto es reconocernos pequeños, muy pequeños. Porque no nos dominamos ni siquiera a nosotros mismos. Supone una ardua tarea para el humano reconocer que su grandeza es idéntica a la de una hormiga. Ambos estamos compuestos en nuestra mayor parte por los mismos elementos.

Bitácora del día

Por la mañana: tareas domésticas (pocas pero inevitables) y curación de contenidos.

Por la tarde: lectura de blogs, más curación de contenidos y paseo con el perrito.

Gracias por estar ahí.

Hi, dear hiver.

If today's photo reminds you of a certain part of the female anatomy, you're not wrong, hahaha. This is a typical dessert for the community where I live that is sold every year for today. Its name is teta de Santa Águeda.

This saint was a Christian martyr who died under torment. This consisted, among other things, of cutting off her breasts. That is why she is always depicted carrying a tray on which her two cut breasts rest.

In Saragossa she has a great deal of devotion. On this day a large number of women go to the church known as Portillo to ask for her protection. I prefer to ask for her protection while I enjoy this delicacy, which is delicious and tastes better because it is so scarce in the calendar.

Stoic quote of the day

Don't let yourself be carried away by the whirlwind of passions. On the contrary, in the face of every impulse, correspond with what is right, and in the face of every fantasy, preserve the faculty of understanding.

Marcus Aurelius.

My reflection

The insistence of the Stoic philosophers on the need to control the passions is justified by the enormous difficulty of bringing it into reality. I am sure we agree that emotions such as anger, sadness, rage, resentment... are pernicious and the more we keep them at bay, the better we will feel.

But what about the emotions we consider positive? We tend to consider them worthy of experimentation the more often the better, don't we? That and no other is the trap. Neuromarketing experts know this well. When they direct their campaigns at our gut, appealing to our instincts, they are calling directly to our brains and because they are assured of a response from us. We are rewarding them even when we feel disgust or rejection, because their goal is to get us to act, and any reaction is good enough for them.

What is the reason for this interest? Thanks to my studies in neuropsychology, I know some of the mechanisms that govern us. Because, my dear friend, I am sorry to tell you that we are puppets almost every minute of our lives. Sometimes directed by sibylline external forces and sometimes by internal ones, which are infinitely more powerful than the former.

Our appetites are the result of the combination of neurotransmitters that run through our neural networks. These carry signals back and forth, stimulating some areas and suppressing arousal in others. Depending on who is winning the battle at any given moment, we feel better or worse. It is pure chemistry. To understand this is to recognise that we are small, very small. Because we don't even dominate ourselves. It is an arduous task for humans to recognise that their greatness is identical to that of an ant. We are both composed for the most part of the same elements.

Logbook of the day

In the morning: housework (few but unavoidable) and content curation.

In the afternoon: blog reading, more content curation and a walk with the puppy.

Thanks for being here.
