The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka

• 209. TJ Power: How Dopamine, Oxytocin, Serotonin & Endorphins Drive Happiness and Longevity

  Join my FREE 3-Day Water Fast Challenge - October 15th. It's the exact protocol I use with pro athletes and Fortune 500 CEOs to flush inflammation and kickstart autophagy. Sign up here! http://bit.ly/4nTILPt Here’s what nobody tells you about happiness: it’s not philosophical, it’s biochemical, and there’s a formula for it. Neuroscientist TJ Power joins me to decode the DOSE effect (Dopamine, Oxytocin, Serotonin, and Endorphins), the four neurochemicals that determine whether you wake up energized or apathetic, connected or isolated, fulfilled or constantly chasing more. The game-changer here is understanding that you can’t scroll your way to serotonin or double-tap your way to oxytocin!
