Share Your Tips and Take-aways with me!

In this episode, Juli shares what really happens in your brain after a big trip, project, or event — that strange “blah” feeling when motivation and joy take a dip. Learn about the dopamine-restoration cycle, why your nervous system needs recovery, and how to use small, sensory-based actions to bring your chemistry (and your clarity) back online.

You’ll Learn:

  • The neuroscience behind low-motivation days
  • How dopamine, serotonin, and novelty interact
  • Simple reset habits: drink water, walk barefoot in the grass, get sunlight, listen to music, dance, take a nap
  • Why rest isn’t regression — it’s repair
