But with too much resistance, life gets tough, inefficient, and hard to sustain. We're fleshy biological circuits for the flow of electrons from food to oxygen. The ERP explains why our psychobiological systems must operate in a goldilocks zone of resistance. Things we do like exercising, eating, and feeling, all influence how resistance our organism imposes to the flow of energy. martinpicard.substack.com/erp
