Habits of a Happy Brain: Retrain Your Brain to Boost Your Serotonin, Dopamine, Oxytocin, & Endorphin Levels

Humans have emotional ups and downs because we’ve inherited the operating system of earlier mammals. The mammal brain releases dopamine when we approach a reward, and serotonin when we get respect. Oxytocin gives us a good feeling when we trust, and endorphin makes us feel good when we’re injured. These happy chemicals evolved to do a job, not to surge all the time. Your brain defines the job in its own way because each happy chemical surge in your youth connected neurons. You can build new neural pathways to turn on your happy chemicals in new ways. That doesn’t happen easily, but this book guides you through the challenge. It shows how to choose new happy habits that are right for you, and repeat them until new pathways build. And it explains why this is harder than you expect it to be. Our mammal brain likes to do things that trigger happy chemicals immediately, and it hates to give up things that triggered them in your past. There’s no delete button in your brain, but electricity will light up your new connections when you make them stronger than your old connections. Unhappy chemicals will always be part of your life, however. The brain needs them to steer away from bad things just as much as it needs happy chemicals to steer toward good things. Meet Your Happy Chemicals shows you how to accept nature’s alarm system as you focus on nature’s reward system.
