dopamine detox

Dopamine detox is the idea that you can “reset” your brain by cutting out stuff that gives you quick hits of pleasure, like social media, video games, junk food, or porn, usually for a day or a few days. The roast is that dopamine is not a villain you can detox like it is a poison, it is literally part of how motivation and learning work. So the trend is basically digital detox plus a neuro science flavored marketing label. (bannerhealth.com
