Ok so I just had to print this one...an actual good excuse to eat chocolate cannot be passed by. :-)
Eat Chocolate
When you start to feel that lackluster attitude this season, I recommend eating some chocolate. Endorphins boost creativity. Endorphins are among the brain chemicals known as neurotransmitters, which function to transmit electrical signals within the nervous system. Researchers have found that eating chocolate, that delightful number one food craved by American women, and myself at least five times a day, causes the brain to release endorphins, chemicals that make us feel good.
Have you ever noticed how creative you get while exercising for extended periods of time? This is a biological fact that has been proven time and time again. And according to Molecules of Emotion by Candace B. Pert, continuous exercise like running, long-distance swimming, aerobics, cycling or cross-country skiing appears to contribute to an increased production and release of endorphins. The released endorphins are morphine-like substances that have strong affects on the brain and body. So it’s the dead of winter, no treadmill in sight, your significant other is far away – what’s girl to do? Sit down, relax and enjoy a nice bit of chocolate and let the creativity unlesh.
