The Neuroscience of Gratitude: Rewiring Your Brain in 15 Minutes

In this episode, Earl and Mariam dive deep into The Neuroscience of Gratitude—breaking down what actually happens in your brain when you pause and say “thank you.” From activating the medial prefrontal cortex and the nucleus accumbens to boosting dopamine and serotonin, gratitude becomes a natural mood-reset button that lowers stress and strengthens emotional resilience.

They also explore how Hebb’s Law (“neurons that fire together, wire together”) explains why gratitude literally rewires your brain for positivity. You’ll hear creative, practical ways to bring gratitude into your daily life—like memory jars, art-based gratitude journaling, vision boards, and gratitude letters that help strengthen connection and emotional balance.

Whether you’re crafting, journaling, or looking to shift your mindset, this episode shows how just 15 minutes of gratitude can transform your mood, improve relationships, and help you build long-lasting positivity.
