Creating Happiness

12: How to hack your happy hormones and live like a caveman


Listen Later

Hello fellow ex-cavemen, hope life's been treating you well.

Today we're talking about how modern civilisation has brought your happy hormone production to a crashing halt, the symptoms you're displaying as evidence, why your dopamine system in particular is f*cked and where we can start making lifestyle changes to raise those levels and get our moods, motivation and energy up and kicking again.

Big shoutout to TJ Power and his incredible new book, The DOSE effect, for supplying much of the info shared in this episode.

Also forgot to say I've been recovering from an extremely obnoxious cold for like a month so apologies for the snotty nasally voice.

Love you all loads and loads and loads, thanks for listening, hope it helps xxx
