January 19th marks the beginning of tax season. Closing your books and saying a prayer you will either get a hefty check in the mail, or not have to pay the piper too much, is on everyone's mind. The brain is a funny organ- what causes stress and anger one minute, can be overcome by the sensation of pure joy! How does this happen? Sunlight, sex, or chocolate all have the same power to help your brain power through stressful or unpleasant moments. Southwest Candy does not sell sex or sunlight, so we will just talk about chocolate!
Kiss, bar, stick, square, or lump- no matter. Chocolate elicits the feeling of happiness. Why do you think this is a "go-to" staple during the hardest of break-ups? As I stated in my previous post, it is also an aphrodisiac, which is why it is SO popular on Valentine's Day.
Chocolate stimulates the release of endorphins by the brain which induce a state of pleasure and joy. So in times of stress- tax season- having chocolate out on your desk for your clients is always a good idea.
There are many types of chocolate to choose from: milky chocolate such as the "Kiss" featured here, chewy chocolate such as the Tootsie Roll, hard chocolate such as a Tootsie Pop, chocolate coins, minty chocolate such as Andes Creme de Menthe, candy-coated chocolate such as M&Ms or Sixlets, and when you just cannot decide because you love them all, assorted bags of Nestle, Mars, or Hershey Miniatures are just clicks away!
