Feeling constantly pulled towards notifications, social media scrolling endlessly, or maybe that afternoon sugar crash just won't quit? These could all be signs of a dopamine overload. In this episode, we'll explore the science behind dopamine, the brain's feel-good chemical, and how excessive stimulation can disrupt our focus, happiness, and overall well-being.


In this episode we discuss: 

  • What dopamine is and its role in motivation, learning, and pleasure
  • Signs and symptoms of experiencing excessive dopamine stimulation
  • The potential benefits of a dopamine detox 
  • Practical tools to help you reduce exposure to activities or substances that trigger excessive dopamine release
