Dr. Trish Leigh Podcast Episode #192: The Dopamine Illusion — Why Pleasure Isn’t the Same as Joy
The Dopamine Illusion — Why Pleasure Isn’t the Same as Joy
Your brain isn’t broken—it’s been tricked into chasing quick dopamine spikes and calling them happiness. That’s the illusion. Every swipe, scroll, and surge of stimulation rewires your reward circuits, dulling the calm rhythm of your mind—the peak alpha state where real joy and creativity live.
But here’s the hope: your brain is neuroplastic. It can change, grow, and heal when given the right input. Through stillness, intention, and the right kind of rewiring, pleasure becomes purpose again—and joy returns to its rightful place.
If you’re ready to step out of the dopamine illusion and live a supernormal life, visit drtrishleigh.com to work together with me. I can help you see your brain and create a personalized neurofeedback-guided plan to rewire your pathways. Your brain can change. Your life can expand. I want it for you.
