A transformative guide to breaking free from impulsive habits and living a more intentional life, from an expert clinical psychologist
Do you want to live a life driven by intention, not impulse?
Discover how with this expert and eye-opening guide to the little-understood but powerful neurotransmitter that steers our habits- dopamine.
Shopping, eating, social media, sex, drugs and gambling are just some of the things that can trigger a release of dopamine, a key neurotransmitter in our brain's reward system. Responsible for everything from memory to mood, dopamine has a huge influence on our behaviours and the disruptive habits that conflict with our values - though most of us don't even realise it.
In The Dopamine Brain, clinical psychologist Dr Anastasia Hronis lifts the lid on dopamine - what it really is, how it functions inside our brains and how it drives the daily choices that ultimately shape our lives.
Packed with the latest research in neuroscience and psychology, fascinating case studies, personal stories and actionable advice, The Dopamine Brain will empower you to understand your own dopamine drive so you can live a balanced life of pleasure and purpose.
