Episode notes
Dopamine is a chemical that our brain makes. It mediates the experience of pleasure, reward, and motivation. Dopamine is very much a signal that alerts us to what is going on in our bodies. And it's a way that we are encouraged to approach pleasure and avoid pain. The more reinforcing and more pleasurable something is, the more dopamine gets released in that part of the brain.
