What are you grateful for today?

This Thanksgiving, remember that gratitude is more than just a nice tradition, it’s a physiological superpower.

-Gratitude activates the vagus nerve, the key communicator between your brain and gut. This nerve stimulates digestion by promoting the release of digestive enzymes and regulating gut motility.
-It reduces cortisol (stress hormone) levels, which can otherwise impair proper digestion and nutrient absorption.
-A calm, grateful state shifts your body into ‘rest and digest’ mode, optimizing your digestive system for the feast ahead.

Gratitude helps your body function better.

So before enjoying your meal, take a moment to be truly thankful. Happy Thanksgiving! 🙏

L-theanine, an amino acid found almost exclusively in tea leaves, boasts some major mood-enhancing effects.

It works by boosting neurotransmitters in your brain that are essential for mood regulation, including:

-GABA: A neurotransmitter that’s been shown to decrease unhealthy impulses, anxiety, panic attacks, and depression.

-Serotonin: A neurotransmitter and hormone widely known for its positive influence on mood, with the power to make you feel calm, happier, less anxious, and more focused.

-Dopamine: A neurotransmitter that plays a crucial role in how you feel pleasure and happiness.

You can find L-theanine in green tea and black tea. And if you’re not a tea drinker, consider adding an L-theanine supplement to your routine.
