The Power of a Thank You Can Change Your Brain

The Power of a Thank You Can Change Your Brain

Bold Commerce Collaborator

How can something as simple as a "thank you" change your brain? Well, it’s easy. As humans, we have this amazing superpower called Neuroplasticity. It looks like a big scary word but it’s actually really simple. Neuroplasticity is our brain's ability to change, leaving behind the things it doesn’t need anymore and focusing on things that are more important. Think of it like having a closet that automatically cleans itself out. The things you don’t wear anymore just take up a bunch of space and don’t serve you anymore, so they’re automatically tossed out for you to make room for the...

This is from floods to droughts but it’s also a mission about community and people and how we can empower them and bring jobs and bring livelihoods and bring that energy back.

I Did Six Days of Lumen. Here’s How it Went.

Featured Contributor: Erin Willis | Mother Indica & Flower Belly   Call it serendipity or pure coincidence... but I got lucky enough to meet the Lumen team right before they switched their products to adaptogenic superfood elixirs.. a hemp-centric product line that took me by storm because I’m a nutritionist in the cannabis industry.   When we first met at a local coffee shop, the Lumen team was diligently working on releasing an 8 oz. raw hemp green juice.

MODERN DAY WARRIORS: CULTIVATE “WARRIOR MINDSET”

Kris Taylor

For the past week, I’ve slept on a backpacker’s blow-up sleeping pad. Not in a tent in Yosemite. Not at a multi-day music festival. Instead, my makeshift bed is nestled between the interior wall of a cargo van and a thousand-pound juice press. Sometimes I’ll dream about adventure in Yosemite or on safari.
