TSOW49: Dopamine Nation with Dr Anna Lembke

“Our memory makes it very difficult for us to remember that for every pleasure we pay a price, and for every pain we get a reward.” - Dr Anna Lembke

Discover how our current culture’s unlimited access to immediate pleasure has led to a dopamine overdrive. Dr Anna Lembke, professor of Psychiatry at Stanford University School of Medicine and author of Dopamine Nation, discusses how easy it is to slip into addiction as we face this constant struggle between sudden and dramatic increases of dopamine and the potentially chronic dopamine deficit free fall. You will leave this conversation with a better understanding of how dopamine impacts your pleasure, pain, and motivation responses, along with how to regulate this state of being.
