Y'all are really onto this one I feel! Awesome work @Shaz51 @amber22 @Captain24 Getting out into nature, doses of sun and exercise are all awesome ways of harnessing/ boosting serotonin! A few other possibilities are:

  • Reminiscing about good times
  • Good food- like bananas and apples

The final Happy Hormone, the E in D.O.S.E is Endorphins!

Endorphins are hormones and neuro-signalling molecules that function as painkillers and also have involvement in our natural rewards circuits!

Once again, over to all of you: What ideas do you have about how you could harness endorphins? @Captain24 @Shaz51 @7cough9 @june23 @Medicated

Going for a run always helps me. Also I've heard apparently chocolate is meant to give you some endorphins... specifically dark chocolate 🙂
