Neurons
Neurons are your thinking, feeling, and remembering cells. They fire trillions of times per day, creating your thoughts, emotions, and memories. Every time you learn something new, your neurons physically rewire themselves.
"When you worry, your neurons send stress signals throughout your body. When you practice gratitude, your neurons activate reward pathways. Your thoughts literally reshape your neural networks."
Learn something new daily—neurons love growth
Practice mindfulness—it strengthens neural connections
Get quality sleep—neurons repair and consolidate memories
Engage in meaningful conversations—neurons thrive on connection
Challenge yourself creatively—neurons need stimulation
✨ Your brain uses 20% of your body's energy despite being only 2% of your body weight. Feed it well!
