A wellness guide explains how understanding your dopamine baseline can help you control your mood and motivation. She argues that dopamine imbalances underlie unmotivation and erratic emotions, and that recognizing your own baseline has clarified her mood fluctuations.
I want you to understand your body a little bit more so that you can take control of your life. Listen, this is going to be amazing, trust me. I am always excited and I'm always perplexed at the same time when it comes to understanding dopamine levels and how to balance them, how to, uh, fulfill a, a stabilized place of my baselines, uh, for dopamine. I, I'm just really interested in all of it, and I've been studying this for quite some time, and it's helped me to understand exactly why I feel the way I feel at times and my moods. And, you know, this is something that I think everybody needs to understand, because if you go throughout life and you have certain mood swings or behavior patterns, or maybe you're not even motivated to do things that you really know you should be doing, you need to understand why.
