Synopsis

A practical companion to the New York Times and international bestseller Dopamine Nation, for individuals, families, counselors, therapists, teachers, and anyone who wants to go beyond the narrative and engage in practices that will reset reward pathways for a more flourishing life

In Dopamine Nation, Dr. Lembke introduced readers to her groundbreaking research that demonstrates how abundance itself is a stressor, contributing to rising rates of addiction, depression, and anxiety. Since the book’s publication, she has often been asked: When will there be a workbook helping people apply these ideas to their own lives?

With her signature warm, authoritative voice, Dr. Lembke has written the workbook that her readers have been asking for. Full of interactive exercises and inspiring examples, the workbook helps readers identify the substances and behaviors they struggle to moderate, undertake a dopamine fast, and reset reward pathways for a happier and more fulfilling life.
