Sweet, Instant Relief

Even though my therapist tells me I’m entitled to be cranky due to my insanely busy life, I felt like I needed something to stop me from being the literal worst version of myself. Seriously – the other day, my kid was asking “why is Mommy always mad?” And that sucks. I should be a cool mom. A fun mom! After all, I was in a band in college. So I started taking these little gel packs from Healthycell.

My first time trying it was in that rare moment of quiet before the house wakes up… and I immediately felt a change. Possibly the first time I felt chill since I saw my positive pregnancy test. Normally, terrified of the day to come, I’d end up 40 videos deep on TikTok by the time I had to get the boys up and dressed, leaving me nary a second to shower or pick out matching socks. But with the extra sense of serenity from the Calm Mood gels, I was able to take a deep breath, drink a hearty gulp of coffee, and reset my mindset so that I could actually step into that shower. Which went a long way towards helping boost my mood, too. 

Why They Work

To be frank, I don’t care what’s in these puppies. I just care that they work, which they do. But some people DO care, so here ya go. They’ve got: 

• Ashwagandha, L-Theanine, and Magnesium for relieving stress
• 5HTP and GABA for supporting serotonin levels
• Saffron Extract and B Vitamins for supporting dopamine levels

For the uninitiated, serotonin and dopamine are neurotransmitters that humans produce naturally, that have an impact on mood regulation. Only problem is, being stressed can make it so that we make less of these key neurotransmitters.

What do they actually do? Very basically, more serotonin = better mood and emotional resilience (i.e., how well you can handle tough situations). Dopamine’s a little different in that it’s the neurotransmitter that gives us a sense of contentment and pleasure, and these types of feelings give us an overall sense of happiness. The ingredients in these gels can help you regulate your serotonin and dopamine levels, so you feel like the best version of you. 

Life With Calm Mood

It’s not perfect. It’s never going to be perfect. But now, when my artsy kid shows me his weirdly accurate rendition of his great grandmother who he’s never met, I take the time to ask him how he learned to draw so realistically rather than simply grunting and telling him he has to put away his crayons. And isn’t that what life’s all about?
