When I go to physical therapy, I do shots of water and socialize, I get high on healing. Physical activity, socializing, and self-care get you “high,” naturally. They stimulate dopamine, serotonin, and all your brains neurotransmitters that boost mood.

Happiness is a natural drug in your brain. You have to choose the thoughts, activities, people, situations, jobs, etc., thank stimulate and reinforce positive feelings AND remember to rest and stay hydrated. What goes up must come down, is a basic law of physics and life. 

Go for a walk, breathe in the fresh air, listen to your favorite music, say hi to a few people and enjoy all the positivity and productiveness that follow.  

Have an abundant weekend.

P.S. I have to do a shout out to Anthony, Nick, Jaclyn, Brian, Arianna, Kevin, Cindy and Maribel, who are my amazing team of healers and earth angels in Nutley!!! I'm grateful and on the mend thanks to Professional Physical Therapy in Nutley on Franklin Ave.
