Comer juntos, con presencia, sin distracciones, es una de esas cosas simples que olvidamos que necesitamos.
Cuando comes con alguien y están presentes de verdad—sin pantallas de por medio—algo cambia.
No es magia. Es tu sistema nervioso relajándose.
Tu cerebro pasa de buscar dopamina (ese subidón rápido del scroll) a recibir oxitocina (esa sensación cálida de conexión real).
Y tu cuerpo... exhala.

No tiene que ser perfecto. No tiene que ser en un restaurante fancy.
Puede ser en tu cocina, con comida sencilla, con alguien que te importa.
Lo que importa es estar ahí. De verdad.
¿Te animas a intentarlo esta semana?
Apaga el teléfono. Siéntate con alguien. Come despacio.
Tu sistema nervioso te lo va a agradecer. 💙

¿Con quién te gustaría compartir una comida así? 👇

Tu cerebro no está exagerando cuando te sientes solo.
Está respondiendo a una amenaza biológica real.
La soledad es hambre de conexión. Y tu cuerpo la necesita tanto como el aire.
Si esto te pegó diferente, guárdalo. Compártelo con alguien que sea importante para ti. 💙🧠

Stop the scroll, start the soul-search. 🚶‍♂️💨
Did you know just 30 minutes of walking increases blood flow to the hippocampus? That’s the part of your brain responsible for verbal memory and learning. 🧠
Meanwhile, 30 mins of scrolling often leads to “Directed Attention Fatigue.” Basically, your brain’s “battery” for focusing gets drained by all those lights and pings. 🔋🪫
The Choice:
❌ Doomscrolling (Stress + Fog)
✅ Power-walking (Dopamine + Clarity)
Trade the screen for the street today. Your brain will thank you. 🙌

For many of us, the constant mental loop of “What did they mean by that?” or “How can I fix this?” isn’t a symptom of a busy mind—it’s a biological survival strategy.

In the Fawn Response, your nervous system decides that the safest place to be is in someone else’s good graces. It’s a brilliant adaptation to a past where conflict felt dangerous. But in the present, it leads to burnout, resentment, and a total loss of self.

The goal isn’t just to stop overthinking; it’s to start feeling safe enough to be yourself.

Do you recognize this in yourself? Let’s talk about it below.

Depression isn’t solved with tips.
Not because tips are bad. Not because self-care doesn’t matter.
But because depression isn’t a problem to solve—it’s a condition to manage.
And that management requires three things that no Instagram post can give you:

Time. Treatment. And compassion.

Today is World Day Against Depression.

If you woke up today and getting out of bed felt like lifting a mountain...
If you’ve been pretending you’re fine while everything inside you is screaming...
If you’re so tired of being tired that you can’t remember what energy feels like...

Here’s what I need you to know about depression:
