Episode 78 | Dopamine Detox Series Ep. 3

This is the third in the Dopamine Detox series where I’ve been exploring how to bring balance to this ‘feel good’ neurotransmitter to reclaim your joy in life. This series shines a light on how our modern-day lives of overstimulation or seeking immediate gratification through things like excessive screen time social media, or multitasking and addictive behaviours can negatively impact our physical and emotional well-being. In today’s episode, I’ll be talking about burnout, what it is, how it happens and what to do about it to reverse its effects and prevent it in the future.

Key Topics include:

• Why excessive immediate gratification behaviours can lead to burnout.
• What causes burnout, and how it can be healed and prevented.
• Burnout from the classical medical perspective compared to a holistic approach.
• The importance of self-care to de-stress.
• The connection between stress, burnout and dopamine.
• A self-care practice to use when you feel stressed.
