Here’s a cup of tea on me

Enjoy this delightful cup of tea of knowledge. Choose a different cup each day and release the happy and calm within.

I am continually amazed by the resources nature provides, fulfilling our needs beautifully and effectively. It’s truly remarkable to realize that many of the tools we need to thrive are already within us, intricately woven into our being. Among these tools are neurotransmitters, the body’s chemical messengers that play crucial roles in our mood, happiness, and overall well-being.

Neurotransmitters like serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine influence our emotions, motivation, and pleasure. These chemicals are deeply linked to our sense of happiness and are affected by our actions and thoughts. Mindfulness, the practice of maintaining a moment-by-moment awareness of our thoughts, feelings, bodily sensations, and surrounding environment, can positively impact our brain’s chemistry. It encourages a balance in our neurotransmitters, promoting an enhanced mood and a more positive outlook.

Mindfulness practices like meditation, deep breathing, and even the simple act of savoring a cup of tea, can help to regulate these chemical messengers, aligning us closer to peace and contentment. By embracing mindfulness, we engage in an active process of brain regulation that supports our mental health and feeds our inner happiness.

So, as you sip on your morning cup of tea, consider these nourishing acts not just for the body but for the mind as well. Here’s to taking intentional steps toward happiness and to feeding your happy. Cheers!

About Me

Hi, I am Lisa. I am learning every day how to love up on this beautiful gift of living, cherishing each moment as it comes. Especially because at 38 I was dying, and now I am 55 years old, I have gained a deeper appreciation for life’s simple pleasures. I’m married to my wonderful husband of 30 years, who not only supports me through thick and thin but has also selflessly served as my kidney donor, a true testament to his love and commitment. Together, we have raised two incredible kids, aged 38 and 25, and I delight in watching them thrive. Our family has expanded beautifully with two grandkids who fill our lives with joy, a lovely daughter-in-law who has seamlessly joined our family, and a grand fur baby who adds warmth to our home. Here you will find life, food, and how I set the table with love for myself, my friends, and my family, creating cherished memories around meals that go beyond nourishment. I hope it inspires you to love up on your life a bit more and encourage you to surround your table with love, laughter, and the people you hold dear. We get one go at this precious journey, so let’s make it something deliciously beautiful, savoring each bite along the way. Thanks for stopping by; your presence adds to the warmth of this shared experience.
