Is dopamine truly the elixir of happiness or the source of our dependencies ? This mini book, published by Five Minutes in the CORPS & ESPRIT collection, offers a clear and concise plunge into the heart of this fascinating neurotransmitter.
Drawing on recent research (2024 2025), the author dismantles the myth of the happiness hormone and shows that dopamine primarily regulates our motivation, learning and energy. When these circuits are hijacked by drugs, screens or stress, they can lead to addictions and a loss of pleasure. The book explains the mechanisms of reward prediction error, the differences between wanting and liking, and how love or fear mobilize the same neural pathways as cocaine.
This synthesis also proposes natural strategies to rebalance dopamine (nutrition, exercise, sleep, meditation) and presents emerging therapies targeting dopaminergic circuits. Aimed at curious readers, it invites everyone to understand and master their own sources of motivation.
Discover how to tame your reward system and regain control over your urges-a captivating journey that blends science, health and self awareness.
