Why You’re Always Overwhelmed - 5 Ways to Defeat Stress

I interviewed neuroscientist TJ Power about the 4 most important brain chemicals: Dopamine, Oxytocin, Serotonin and Endorphins. This video is the final in a 4 part series where we explore each chemical in more depth, and how we can better understand it to improve our lives. Enjoy! xx

The importance of sleep cannot be overstated! I've started prioritizing my sleep schedule and noticed a huge difference in my stress levels.

The 4th and last video off the series, the series is coming to an end. This series was a masterpiece, I would love Ali for making another series like this

I love this because all of the options are very 'human' things to do. Laughing, singing, moving our bodies!

One of the best series of videos I watched in the recent times on using neuroscience to improve our everyday wellbeing! kudos to you Ali! 👏

[edwinamarie]

Thanks so much for filming this series! I’ve been struggling with my mental health lately and I’m also a nurse practitioner so combining evidence with simple tips is exactly what I need! 👏🏾👏🏾

[unifiedlearners]

Doing Suryanamaskar in morning with 5 rep is the best yoga/stretching keeping it simple and effective.

[sarahirwin]

I’m a singing teacher and it was so awesome to see singing as one of these points listed! 😊 loved this series so much Ali!

[EliseRoseCrochet]

I am loving this series! Thank you, Ali and team! ❤

The algorithm brought your dopamine video to me and I loved it. So many things I am struggling with and some real, actionable steps towards improvement. Obviously I’m now interested in the rest of your DOSE series but I had to stop the video and leave a comment because I have just tried VoicePal and it’s EXACTLY what I need just now. I haven’t even watched to the end of the video yet, I was too excited and wanted to leave a comment. I know this level of gushing sounds like some shopping channel sales pitch, obviously you and your team will know this comment isn’t generated or solicited by you but for anyone reading this I just really, REALLY wanted to share how excited I am with the potential for what I can create. I struggle with writing and sitting down to focus so being able to get a polished looking draft from a voice note is just the perfect solution for me. Absolutely love it. Just using the free 24 hour trial at the moment, fully intend to subscribe but have to wait till payday (lol there’s your dose of reality right there). So thanks for the video series and well done with the app. Look forward to using it frequently.

I am insanely grateful for this series. It will transform my life. Literally, no jokes :)

[just_matth_]

This video alone, especially your laugh made my mood, thanks man❤

[torikellyreeves]

I start to walk and do running sprints in between on the treadmill. On my days off work except for weekends. I do work morning shift at dunkin donuts as well as starting my prayer time at 4:50 so quite naturally when I get home I am very tired.

[thorabecker]

[adilmuhammed]
