Holistic Circle Podcast Spiritual Conversation today with host: Philipp Kobald guest: Loretta Breuningsub_confirmation=1#dopamine #oxytocin #serotonin #endorphins for real this time!Loretta Breuning, a former college professor turned neurochemical truth-teller, dismantles the myths around happiness by explaining how dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin, and endorphins really work—spoiler: it’s not about being blissed out all the time. Drawing on animal behavior, she reveals that these chemicals evolved to help us survive, not to make us feel like spiritual influencers sipping matcha under a full moon. Loretta urges us to stop blaming society, screens, and serotonin sprays and instead build healthy brain habits with intention—like rewarding ourselves for incremental change (without devouring a pint of ice cream in the process). She also takes a torch to pop trauma culture and calls out the performative side of modern spirituality, which is as bold as it is overdue. If you’re curious to find out why your brain behaves more like a dolphin learning backflips than a monk meditating in bliss, the full podcast is a ride worth taking.------------------------------------------------------Links to our guest: web: https://InnerMammalInstitute.org https://a.co/d/glUGrNm--------------------------------------------------------Links provided by our host: HolisticCircleweb: HolisticCircle.org @HolisticCircle Instagram @holistic_circle_org --------------------------------------------------------Hashtags:#Neurohacks #LorettaBreuning #BrainChemistry #SelfAwareness #HolisticCircle #PhilippKobald #SpiritualConversation #MentalWellness #DopamineDecoded #HappinessScienceP 40 / 25 (E0058)
