"If you expose a stressed nervous system to an environment that covers all its basic needs, where it is not constantly pulled in one direction or the other by the contingencies of the outside world, then the inner world relaxes and all that stress goes away.<br>
Our brains and our mental health are a by-product of the environment in which we exist."
