    In this enlightening episode of the Reality of Herbal Therapy podcast, we delve into the profound impacts of gratitude on both mental and physical health. As we celebrate Thanksgiving, Jim and special guest Lynn—his wife and the eldest daughter of Dr. James—join forces to explore the transformative power of gratitude.

    Lynn shares her remarkable journey with daily gratitude exercises that helped her navigate significant changes in life, like moving to Oregon and coping with the challenges of COVID-19. Discover how keeping a gratitude journal not only improved Lynn's emotional well-being but also had positive effects on her physical health.

    We discuss various scientific studies that reveal how practicing gratitude can lead to healthier hearts, improved brain function, better sleep, and reduced stress levels. Additionally, the release of "feel-good" chemicals like dopamine and serotonin from expressing gratitude can enhance social interactions and reinforce a positive outlook on life.

    Learn practical tips and different methods to incorporate gratitude into your routine—whether through writing, mindfulness, or even physical activities like skipping rocks or jumping jacks. With Thanksgiving around the corner, we also introduce the delightful family tradition of the "Thankful Turkey," encouraging listeners to engage their families in expressing gratitude.

    Tune in for an inspiring discussion that emphasizes how embracing gratitude can lighten emotional burdens and enhance daily living. This episode is a perfect reminder of the little yet profound ways gratitude can bring light and resilience to our lives.

So I had a interesting experience that brought up some stuff and I wanted to like chat with you guys because it's like, you know it would be really it was kind of an eye opener for me. um so a couple weeks ago, I had a I came down list, you know, whatever the cred was that was going around, had sore throat, headache, you know, stuffy ears, the whole respiratory thing that was going around and and I just didn't feel real good. And so Lynn, sometimes in the morning, does um kind of an herbal tea thing that, um it's it's an amazing thing. And if you ever heard about it, where you basically take fresh ginger and slice it into um like eighth inch, quarter inch, thick slices, put a couple slices in a in a cup, pour hot water over it, and let it steep for five minutes and then put squeeze half a juice of half a lemon and put some honey to taste in it. and so this ginger lemon, honey hot drink is really, really wonderful. It basically it starts digestion first thing in the morning. It helps your liver to start functioning properly. It does all sorts of really wonderful things. Well, it felt really, really good on my sore throat and um you know lemon and honey is is really soothing to the respiratory system and it's really helpful, good boost of vitamamin C. So I felt really, really good. Well, I did that two or three mornings and then um I was feeling well and I only missed a day of coming into the office and then I came in the next day and um drank my whole cup of this of the of the morning tea and I was like craving more of it morning more of it. So I found um a brand of lemon, it's like lemon ginger, um in a in a tea bag and I was like hey, it'll be the same thing. And um so I made some up, put in my honey and it wasn't awful. I mean it's not it wasn't nasty, but it was there was a huge difference between the fresh lemon and the fresh ginger and the dehydrated lemon peel and the dehydrated lemon in the the, you know, ginger granules or whatever was in it, like there was such a difference in flavor and such a difference in how I felt drinking it and having it. So the whole reason I wanted to bring it up is Dr. James always talked about freshness and quality, quality of ingredients and freshness, um you know we we we almost everything that we put out um any bottle that you get is never more than six months old. Um There's a couple of herbs that sell real slow that could be a little bit more than that, but ninety0% of what we sell is never more than six months old. um so when you open those bottles, you get the smell of whatever's in it. um Somebody was talking about herbal MSM the other day where they said it basically it smells like a spaghetti dinner because of the oregano and paprika so fresh they still got those oils that give off the smell and everything like that um and the reason that freshness is such an important thing is because of how the vit over time vitamins slowly get lost within the herbs and the sp and the things that are in the formulas. So basically once you cut it, if you don't eat it within it's like 45 minutes to an hour, three fourths of the vitamins and minerals are gone. So basically, if you've got something fresh ...
