Dopamine, Motivation, and YOU, pt 1

Dopamine is a neurotransmitter made in our brains and involved in motivation, mood, attention, movement, and memory. A good example is that feeling like you’re on top of the world after achieving a win! This is due to a spike in dopamine. 

In this episode, I’m discussing how dopamine plays a role in your mental health and daily life. I’m also sharing a gem tip to help keep your dopamine levels consistent so that you don’t have to keep chasing that high! Understanding how dopamine works is an important part of awareness and learning to work with your brain. 

A special shout out to the amazing episode of the Huberman Lab podcast on this topic which is much more detailed than I get in this episode. So check it out, if you want to learn more. If you like learning about neuroscience and how it affects your body, thoughts, and actions like I do, I highly recommend Dr. Huberman’s pod!
