How do we maintain healthy balance of Neurotransmitters or Hormones

How do we maintain balance of neurotransmitters or hormones namely Dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin and endorphins                        1. Regular Exercise : Engaging in regular physical activity has been shown to boost the production of endorphins, leading to improved mood and reduced stress. Aerobic exercises, strength training and laughter can be beneficial for neurotransmitter balance. 2. Adequate Sleep : Getting enough quality sleep is crucial for maintaining optimal neurotransmitter function. Poor sleep can disrupt serotonin and dopamine levels, leading to mood disturbances and cognitive impairment. 3. Sunlight Exposure : Sunlight exposure helps stimulate the production of serotonin, which can improve mood and regulate sleep-wake cycles. Spending time outdoors during daylight hours or using light therapy lamps can help maintain healthy serotonin levels, particularly during the darker winter months. 4. Limiting Alcohol and Substance Use : Excessive alcohol and drug use can d

  Know your Four Hormones good for overall Health.

Lets us see some more on this... 1. Expectations vs. Reality : When humans design and program robots to exhibit respectful and courteous behavior, they are setting an ideal standard based on societal norms and values. However, humans themselves may struggle to consistently adhere to these standards due to various factors such as personal biases, cultural differences, situational constraints, and emotional reactions.                                                                     2. Intent vs. Execution : While the intent behind programming robots with respectf
