ZUZU’S HEALTH HACK

Thoughts on Depression/Sadness/Anxiety/Stress:

The neurotransmitters serotonin, dopamine, GABA, and acetylcholine all play major parts in our happiness or sadness. Here are a few of my top 20 ways to naturally help balance these amazing neurotransmitters:

  1. Write in a gratitude journal. Studies show people who keep a gratitude journal live on average nine years longer than people who do not keep one, and 52 physical actions in your body improve if you are keeping a gratitude journal!
  2. Sadness and depression are most often rooted in Vitamin D deficiency. Enjoy UVB Rays from the sun as they make vitamin D in your skin between 10am-2pm. The more skin exposed during these hours the better. Start with three minutes a day, then five, then eight minutes until you are out in the sun 20-30 minutes a day.
  3. Try mindfulness, prayer, and/or meditation.
  4. Stay hydrated with water.
  5. Did you know sugar causes sadness? Check out the book "Sugar Blues,"which explains how sugar causes depression and many other health issues.
  6. Exercise!  is great for your mood and releases endorphins…your feel-good neurotransmitter!
  7. Create a vision board or keep a vision journal of things you want to do or accomplish as your life moves forward.
  8. Serving others is a wonderful way of helping ourselves. Is there something you can do for someone else? The dishes? Vacuum? Back rub? Or just smile?

ps. I have spoken onstage in numerous cities in the US, and many attendees tell me they have heard of our center here in Hawkinsville, GA.  The most common question?  Where is Hawkinsville, and why there?! They are coming to Hawkinsville from EVERYWHERE!
