A Tiny Tweak to LSD Just Produced a Drug That May Repair the Brain
Somewhere in a lab at the University of California, Davis, a chemist made a decision so small it barely registered as a change at all. Two atoms. That was it, just two atoms swapped from one position to another inside one of the most notorious molecules in pharmaceutical history. What came out the other side…
The People Around You Are Shaping Your Stress Response
For decades, stress has been framed as something deeply personal. Your workload. Your mindset. Your coping skills. If you feel overwhelmed, the solution is often presented as an individual one: manage your thoughts better, build resilience, practice mindfulness, push through. But modern neuroscience is quietly telling a very different story. One that challenges the idea…
Emotions Rewire Your Body: How Stress Hormones and Brain Chemistry Shape Health
Every argument you replay in your mind leaves a trace. Every moment of deep gratitude does too. But these traces are not metaphorical, and they do not fade when your mood shifts. Something far more concrete happens inside your body each time an emotion surges through you, and scientists have spent decades mapping exactly what…
Your Brain Agrees With Buddhist Monks About Who You Really Are
Picture yourself at five years old. Maybe you recall a birthday party, a favorite toy, or the smell of your childhood home. Now consider who you were then versus who you are now. Most people assume something essential has remained constant through all those years, a core “you” that has persisted from infancy through adolescence…
The Surprising Link Between Leg Strength and Brain Health
For decades, modern wellness culture has separated the body and mind into two distinct arenas, as if muscles belonged to the gym and intelligence belonged to the library. Yet emerging research from neuroscience, kinesiology, and even epigenetics suggests these worlds are far more interconnected than we once believed. One of the most surprising revelations from…
The Science Behind Training Your Brain to See the Positive
Human beings are natural storytellers, meaning-makers, pattern seekers. Yet for generations we were told that our brains were largely fixed by adulthood, that our personality, habits, emotional tendencies and even our worldview were essentially set in stone. Today, neuroscience is showing us something radically different. Our brains remain malleable, adaptive and incredibly responsive throughout life.…
How Complaining Rewires Your Brain to Stay Negative and Depressed
Complaining—it’s something we all do. From minor grumbles about the weather to venting about life’s bigger frustrations, complaining can feel like a natural response to stress. But what if this common habit is doing more harm than we think? Recent research shows that the act of complaining goes beyond simply releasing frustration; it can actually…
This Man Was Born Without 90% Of His Brain & Never Knew It
We often hear claims that people only use 10% of their brain, a myth that has been widely debunked. But an extraordinary case from 2007 brought new meaning to this idea when a French man discovered he was missing most of his brain – and had lived his whole life without knowing it. At 44…
