TJ is a neuroscientist at DOSE Lab and the author of the Sunday Times Best Seller The Dose Effect – Small Habits To Boost Your Brain Chemistry!

DOSE is an acronym for the four key chemicals that live within our brain and body: Dopamine, Oxytocin, Serotonin and Endorphins.

Drawing on cutting-edge science, Power explores how biohacking your brain can not only enhance cognitive performance but also improve the aspects of your life that ultimately control a happier, healthier, and more productive lifestyle.

Tj is an internationally respected neuroscience educator and a go-to authority for unlocking human potential in the digital age.

Here are some of things we talked about in today’s show:

· Dopamine is essential for survival and motivation.

· Modern access to dopamine has led to imbalances affecting mental health.

· Oxytocin is not just about touch; self-love is crucial.

· Inner dialogue can significantly impact our emotional state.

· Nature exposure is vital for serotonin production.

· Underthinking can be beneficial for mental clarity.

· Practical habits can help manage brain chemistry effectively. Overthinking can lead to a massive fear response in the nervous system.

· Physical exertion is crucial for releasing stress and endorphins.

· Endorphins are released during intense physical activity, not just light exercise.

· Eliminating addictive substances may be necessary for some individuals.

· Controlling the pleasure-pain balance

· The six main causes of low dopamine – sugary foods, alcohol drugs and vaping, porn, social media, gambling, online shopping
