You have power over your emotions, but it’s limited, so understanding it is essential. This guide explains the chemicals that influence our feelings: dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin, and endorphin. You'll learn how these chemicals are activated in animals and how to manage them using the animal part of your brain. Additionally, it addresses cortisol, the unhappy chemical, and offers methods to rewire your brain for happiness by introducing new inputs. This step-by-step approach, based on the Inner Mammal Institute's research, is jargon-free. Over 14 days, you’ll explore your influence over your brain's happy chemicals. Rather than a checklist, this guide reveals how your brain was wired and how to create new connections. Early experiences shape our wiring, necessitating updates for healthier pathways. Realistic expectations are crucial, as happy chemicals aren't meant to flow constantly. They evolved to reward actions that meet our needs, which can be quirky. Understanding these quirks will help you design achievable steps toward happiness. While you can’t rewire your entire brain in 14 days, you can create one new neural pathway at a time, allowing for smoother transitions to your new habits. Replace unsustainable habits with ones you design yourself, leading to lasting change.
