When you feel happy and all seems right with the world, you're feeling the effects of serotonin. This hormone is responsible for boosting mood, as well as a host of other functions.
It's easy to forget, from inside our human animal perspective, just how influential our body and brain chemistry is to our experience in the world. We might try to reason our way from one feeling to another, but care and attention to hormonal balance is an important part of self care. That could mean seeking help from a health care provider, as well as making sure to exercise, sleep, eat a balanced diet, and spend time in sunlight.
These earrings represent the chemical formula for serotonin, a reminder to care for our internal chemistry, and to be gentle and loving to ourselves when the balance is off.
