These substances, called neurotransmitters activate or inhibit other neurons thus allowing the nerve impulses to pursue its path.

Some are well known, such as dopamine, which is vital in controlling movement, or serotonin, which is a contributor to a feeling of well-being. The brain’s understanding is much like a computer which is made up of millions of software components that are distributed according to their primary function.

People who have confidence in being expressive, have fluency in language skills and carry on with a sense of ease & grace surrounding communication, interconnections, intimacy, and interpretations of words. Expressing words are critical ingredients in our personal growth and development!
In the words of Fred Rogers, Anything that’s human is mentionable, and anything that is mentionable can be more manageable. When we can talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary. The people we trust with that important talk can help us know that we are not alone.
