Dopamine fasting

Dopamine fasting is like a mini-vacation for your brain. It's a way of taking a break from things that create a lot of "chemical excitement" in the brain, like texting friends, scrolling through social media, or going out with friends. When we do these activities, our brain releases a chemical called dopamine, which makes us feel good. So, when you do a dopamine fast, you take a break from those things and focus on activities that give us longer-term satisfaction, like reading, exercising, or playing board games with family. It gives your brain a chance to take a break, and can help us appreciate the activities and relationships that really matter.
