I have patients who often ask me how to drop alcohol as a ‘habit’. And so many immediately start to tell me that they are looking into replacing alcohol with a new ‘liquid habit’, because they were using alcohol as a stress coping mechanism. And they want to find something new that will give them the same or similar sense of relaxation. The problem is that almost all of these drinks are habit forming and can lead to the same pattern of abuse that occurs with alcohol. The article I posted above is about Kratom and how addictive it can be. I have no judgement about what people use to relax, and unwind, but if you want to learn to relax and release tension without starting a new, potentially addictive and maybe even harmful habit - I recommend learning how to meditate.

On September 30th I will teach my first meditation 101 course. It’s a simple course for beginner meditators. People who believe that they could never learn to meditate. I will be posting ads for it over the next few weeks. Please join me and see how effective and easy meditation can be.

The brain directly influences the gut microbiome. And a new study shows it can change gut bacteria in just 2 hours.

In a surprising twist to the gut-brain connection, scientists have now shown that the brain can change the gut microbiome—and fast.

A new study in mice found that brain signals could alter the composition of gut bacteria within just two hours. This adds strong support to the idea that communication between the gut and brain is bidirectional, not just microbes affecting mood and cognition, but brain activity shaping the microbial ecosystem as well.

While researchers have long known that gut microbes can influence brain function and mental health, this study is one of the first to demonstrate that the brain can send rapid signals that reshape the microbiome.

The discovery could have major implications for understanding how stress, emotions, or neurological conditions might directly impact gut health. It also opens the door to new therapeutic strategies that target brain pathways to influence digestion, immunity, and overall wellness.
