Ep 91. What does it take to make your brain happy?

Update: 2023-07-14

Description

This week I revisit an old episode (25) - originally titled "Happiness and the Brain".

Our understanding of both 'happiness' and 'the brain' is expanding all the time and cool new science is constantly emerging on both subjects. I've learned so much in the years since recording the original episode so this week I pull out the old episode, dusted it off and added a bit of polish in the form of new information and current tips and advice that could help you improve mood and reduce symptoms of mental ill health.

Show notes available at bighappylife.co.uk.

Resources I mention during the episode:

Dr Mindy Pelz book: Fast like a Girl

Dr Mindy Pelz YouTube Video about Dopamine Fasting

Big Happy Life Podcast Episode - Getting Gut Healthy with Hannah Richards
