Vitamin G: How Gratitude Boosts HRV, Lowers Cortisol & Unlocks Healing (Faith + Physiology)
Episode Overview
In this episode of The Own It Show, host Justin Roethlingshoefer introduces “Vitamin G”—gratitude—as a spiritual discipline and a biological signal that shifts the body from protect → heal. Beyond surface-level thank-yous, Justin unpacks embodied gratitude that rewires the brain, raises HRV, lowers cortisol, and realigns your nervous system with peace and presence. From worship playlists to breath-linked journaling, he shows how gratitude transforms physiology—and why it’s the essential “vitamin” your soul needs to thrive.
Episode Highlights
- Gratitude vs. Thankfulness: Moving from polite thanks to embodied reverence that changes state.
- Bio-Signal, Not Just Mindset: Gratitude activates the parasympathetic nervous system (rest/repair), often reflected as higher HRV, better recovery, immune function, and emotional regulation.
- Neurochemistry of Gratitude: Engages the prefrontal cortex; supports serotonin & dopamine pathways → durable, positive neural wiring (not just a temporary mood).
- Faith Meets Physiology: Scripture’s call to thanksgiving aligns with measurable stress reduction and decision clarity.
- Environment Matters: Music and inputs shift state (e.g., worship vs. “depressive playlist”); be the thermostat, not the thermometer.
- Real-World Wins: Clients who integrate gratitude stacks often see HRV and symptom improvements (e.g., brain fog, bloat) as stress load decreases.
Pattern Interrupt (daytime):
When stress hits, take one slow breath and recall one specific gratitude; notice the state shift. - Evening Rewind (3–5 minutes):
Play High–Low–Buffalo (high = win, low = challenge, buffalo = surprise) and find gratitude in each. - Track Your HRV:
Note last month’s average; run the three practices for 7 days and compare average HRV, sleep quality, and mood. - Worship Playlist:
Start or end the day with gratitude-centered worship to prime the nervous system for calm, clarity, and connection.
Scripture & Studies Mentioned
