Particularly suitable if you need a strong stimulus to give yourself support. For the chili candies, capsaicin was extracted from chili peppers and processed into the candy mass. The result is small sugar pieces that are very spicy and can be used in stressful situations. Spiciness is a very intense stimulus that directs attention to the perception in the mouth. This can work wonders in situations where self-efficacy is lacking. Tip: If, for example, you are extremely nervous before an important conversation, presentation, or exam, you can show yourself through the self-induced spiciness that you still have things under control. Body over Mind: All sensory perceptions play the brain in a controlled way so that you can use your own senses for yourself.
