Episode description

Our world is full of stimulation from various sources. This stimulation is caused by dopamine in the brain which is responsible for feelings of pleasure, happiness, and joy. With the advent of technology bleeding into our everyday reality and the misuse of certain elements of life it is becoming clear that most people, especially millennials, are becoming addicted.

Our brains are being wired to seek out these various sources of dopamine to satisfy our desires. This is the most fundamental form of the matrix. It’s a matrix that we are drawn into. A system of control that our brain wants more of and we are either aware of it or not. Every major aspect of the matrix relies on our use of dopamine to keep our attention and keep us living mediocre lives. This episode will detail these dopamine addictions and how to escape from them.
