Hmm

HmmI didn't know that.

You know, I just thought social media was a place I can go hang out with my friends or, you know, people spend hours upon hours on social media are scrolling thinking, "Oh, you know, it's not gonna affect my brain," when in reality it's really destroying people's, you know, mental state and their, you know, it's leading to more anxiety and depression.

And so, like, we just don't know.

And I know a lot of people, and a lot of adults say, "Oh, you know, but teens, like, they're the ones that are doing them- this to themselves," right? But we don't wanna be mentally unhealthy.

We wanna be healthy.

We don't wanna deal with mental health issues.

Like, eliminate, like, um, fast f- fast food, like, places.

And so-

so-As teens, most of us, we're not taught how to actually manage our stress.

They just say, "Oh, you're stressed? It's okay, it'll go away eventually." And that's not the right approach.

That's why more teens nowadays are ...

They're dealing with things.

They're dealing with, you know, this overwhelming stress, and they don't know how to manage it properly.

And so what we do, and what we teach other teens is, you know, just deep breathing.

And that's how, if any, imagine a world where all the teens around the world are mindful.

Imagine where we could go and how our next generation could, how successful we could be if we started taking back control of our bodies, if we start taking back control of our minds.

And right now, you know, like Zan was mentioning, we're basically living on a hamster wheel.

We're just stuck to it, addicted to our phones.

We're basically chained to food companies and chained to what other people say about us.

We're, you know, we're not actually, we think as teens, we want to be free.

And you're not going to figure that out If you're constantly focused on what everyone else is doing, either it's on social media or it's just your work, you have to just take some time to just

But the reality is what happens in our gut affects our brain very deeply, right? So how do you treat your gut well? What do you do? What are some of the steps? I know it's

crazy to think, but we eat real natural food that are going to help us and not hurt us.

Right now, I mean, come on, let's be honest.

Teens, even adults, kids, we're just eating ultra processed foods, Takis, Cheetos, you know, Oreos.

The list goes on and on and on.

And this is what we have breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

And a lot of us, a lot of teens especially, we don't realize what we're doing to ourselves.

And so
