In today’s episode, Quinn teaches listeners about dopamine, a hormone and neurotransmitter related to pleasure and reward that is present in addiction. In the episode, Quinn asks listeners to examine habits in their life that follow addictive patterns of excess including overconsumption of social media, drinking, sugar or even the news and consider whether a dopamine fast might be something they would benefit from. 
In the episode, Quinn teaches listeners how: 

     1. Our brain is hardwired to keep us in a homeostatic state between pain and pleasure 2. Long term dopamine exposure affects the brain 3. Incorporate habits that reset your dopamine baseline 
 
Mind Renewal Tip:
Every pleasure has a price. The ultimate end result in pursuing dopamine is to feel worse than when you started. –Ana Lemke 
We are hardwired to seek pleasure. But the constant seeking of pleasure can lead us to feeling less pleasure by becoming addicted to patterns. 
Scripture Renewal Tip:
"The world and its desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God lives forever." 1 John 2:17
