 We are social species and what that means is we make deposits and withdrawals for other people's body budgets not just our own. We didn't evolve to manage our own nervous systems on our own. We are the caretakers of other people's nervous systems and they are the caretakers of ours. We can affect the metabolic health of other people by what we do and what we say. You know I mean I can text three little words to someone halfway around the world and they don't have to see my face or hear my voice. I can change their heart rate. I can change their breathing. I can change the metabolism. You know it's right.
