Hijacking Happiness: How Social Media Hacked Your Happy Hormones To Get You Hooked Online


Listen Later

In this episode, I talk about:

  • The reason you’re still going on social media, despite turning off all notifications, taking a digital detox break, or deleting your accounts
  • The four happiness hormones – dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin, and endorphins – and how they work together to ensure the survival of the human race
  • How social media mimics your real life experiences, affecting your natural levels and sources of these neurohormones
  • The surprising connection between survival behaviours and pleasurable feelings, and why your brain has created internal triggers for going on social media
  • The 7 day internal triggers challenge
