The effect of anxiety on the Digestive System cannot be underestimated .. Don’t forget that 90% of our Serotonin is produced in our gut, Symptoms can range from severe constipation to diarrhoea. I believe that many cases of Irritable Bowel, have anxiety as the underlying the cause. Soothing your digestive tract and supporting its function can go a very long way to improving your wellbeing.
On a final note : People with chronic low Serotonin need to learn how to play again, how to be spontaneous and creative. Take lots of breaks from the daily grind, go on dates, have family time, take vacations. Sport and games are an important way to exercise, as is good sleep hygiene. Addictions to adrenaline, sugar, alcohol and drugs such as MDMA, LSD and psychedelic mushrooms all temporarily increase Serotonin levels. Unfortunately, there is addictive behaviour as the person seeks to find balance. Taking responsibility for your own actions and committing to a decision helps reduce this behaviour. Find depth and stability in your life by always seeking the truth and confront your personal fears of having limits. Following traditions will bring you Peace & Joy
