A Mind Map is a powerful graphic technique which provides a universal key to unlock the potential of the brain. It harnesses the full range of cortical skills â word, image, number, logic, rhythm, colour and spatial awareness â in a single, uniquely powerful manner. In so doing, it gives you the freedom to roam the infinite expanses of your brain.
Neurotransmitters regulate mood, cravings, addictions, energy, libido, and sleep. They control your ability to focus, concentrate, learn, remember and handle stress. Itâs estimated that 86% of Americans have suboptimal neurotransmitter levels â our unhealthy modern lifestyle being largely to blame. (3) Chronic stress, poor diet, environmental toxins, drugs (prescription and recreational), alcohol, nicotine, and caffeine can cause neurotransmitter depletion.
The neurotransmitter then crosses the synaptic gap to reach the receptor site of the other cell or neuron. Then, in a process known as reuptake, the neurotransmitter attaches to the receptor site and is reabsorbed by the neuron. Neurotransmitters play a major role in everyday life and functioning. Scientists do not yet know exactly how many neurotransmitters exist, but more than 100 chemical messengers have been identified.
