Have you felt more comfortable than ever in recent times but still find yourself unhappy? Is your instant gratification laced with a lining of anxiety that pervades your day-to-day? In this episode of Wise-ish, Dr. Kavetha Sundaramoorthy explains why the misuse of dopamine has become the biggest culprit for causing our societal dis-ease. This fascinating insight into how we’ve used dopamine to move towards cooperative living explains the ‘pleasure/pain paradox’ and how we can achieve better equilibrium in our levels of contentment by abstaining from some pleasures and welcoming some pain. “I firmly believe that the people who succeed in the next generation (our children) will be those that learn how to control and manage their attention. That is going to be the currency of the future.” ~ Dr. Kavetha Sundaramoorthy In This Episode:- Understanding dopamine as the molecule of craving - why instant gratification leads to long-term discontentment- Why we need to fight back against this modern health crisis to build better relationships and emotional health- How social media leaks away our capacity for deep thinking- The value of taking your time to master a skill and the importance of ‘plateaus’- Intermittent fasting and designated tech time as tools you can use to create a better pain/pleasure equilibriumResources:The book: Dopamine Nation by Anna LembkeThe app: Freedom Connect with Dr. Kavetha Sundaramoorthy:- Facebook- Facebook Group- LinkedIn- YouTube- Special Offers: MasteryFREE tools:Get FREE access to my ‘Conflict Cure’ mini-course, plus weekly relationship tools delivered straight to your inbox —> https://bit.ly/RelationalIQ-NewsletterNeed more customized support?
