it’s free and you can start tomorrow

Here are some easy ways you can increase your dopamine in the morning. When you wake up ask yourself what you want to accomplish that day before you do anything else.

Dopamine is a neurotransmitter — a chemical that transmits messages — produced in the brain and other parts of the body. Sometimes referred to as the “feel-good neurotransmitter,” it plays an important role in the pleasure/reward system that motivates people to repeat certain behaviors. It’s also involved in memory, attention, and controlling physical movement. Per Baptist Health
