Homeostasis can be described as as regulating life to maintain constancy. Homeostasis in biology means to maintain the bodies internal equilibrium, from ph levels to the body's temperature. Damasio argues that homeostasis can also be used at a sociological level to describe the constancy of the social body. Damasio explains that organisms need certain emotions to survive, some of these emotions include fear or shock, which jolt the body to become ready for certain events.
