- Do you want more focus, energy, drive, motivation, and happiness? Then increase your dopamine! Don't want to take meth or crack to do it? Then watch 8 ways on how to increase your dopamine naturally! • 8 Ways How to Increase...
I am a pharmacist, which is why you may be surprised that I'm not recommending you take any medication or supplements in this video on 8 Ways on How to Increase Dopamine Levels Naturally.
The goal is to have your dopamine at a solid level at all times. Not too low where you feel tired and depressed, or too high where you're having hallucinations and symptoms of a schizophrenic.
That's why after doing a little research on dopamine and activities that increase it, I'm offering you 8 ways to increase dopamine levels naturally. Why are you wanting to increase your dopamine in the first place? Is it for more success, productivity, focus, drive, happiness?
If it's any of those, then these ways to increase your dopamine will work for you! There are 8 ways to increase your dopamine in this video and there are also some odd video clips. That's just how I roll. This presentation style maybe odd, however I know that learning or experiencing something new can increase dopamine, too.
I learned this from author Carmine Gallo, who wrote "Talk like TED" and "The Storytellers Secret," among other awesome books I've read. Carmine discuss dopamine increases when we experience emotionally charged events. That's why you remember your first kiss, but not what you ate for lunch last Thursday.
If material that you already know is presented in a new and exciting way it can make it easier to remember. If you remember it, you have a "Sticky note" as Carmine Gallo refers it, because of the dopamine increase from the emotionally charged event and then ultimately increase your success when you apply what you learn.
If you liked this video and want more videos like it I make videos each week and will be taking video suggestions from you.

8 Ways on How to Increase Dopamine Levels Naturally - Krátké a kreslené filmy
Thank you, I know what I am dealing with right now is exactly that, low dopamine. I have been lethargic, stuck, uninterested , hard time doing anything,etc. --depressed. High anxiety as well leading to all of this--you advice is something I will begin to put into action. Awesome video BTW
Denise Routhier Ledoux great to hear. Let me know of anything I can do to help you!
I have problems with high anxiety/ leads to depressive feelings but now I am struggling. Doctor prescribed 12.5 mgs seroquel to help me sleep. This was last March--took it for a short time but stopped, did not like the dreams and sleep was not a great quality sleep. Recently she suggest I take 25 mgs. And that was giving me more anxiety, so suggested I go down to 12.5 mgs. Again. Sleep is not a restful sleep, I am trying to incorporate what you suggest into my life, going to drop this seroquel, I am not comfortable with this stuff at all. Oh, and I have been on Effexor 225 for quite a few years, but for now I will continue, when I start feeling stronger mentally and get a great schedul going I may lower dose slowly with my doctors help of course. Anyway--you are awesome, glad I came upon your video--and yes I love that painting, love those colors. Thanks you
The " I start feeling stronger mentally" really stuck out at me. If you don't mind me asking, what it particular is going on in your life that makes you feel mentally weak?
Michael Unks I have always had high anxiety---but for years I was doing great. Back in 2016 my hubby was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma, but prior to that I was one who was spending too much time on my IPad, wanted an recipe, went online, wanted to learn how to, went on Pinterest, in other words I was stagnet, did not walk, was not interested in going out, sent my hubby to do groceries, sort of stayed in the house not realizing I was making things for myself. I saw that the blue light from cell phone, IPad,etc. Is not good, it robs your dopamine. That was a question I wanted to ask you. It’s obvious I lack dopamine the way I feel---have been meditating for two years, well, I had a brief period where I stopped but have started again , twice a day. Transcendental meditation. Is this true about the blue light robbing our dopamine after spending a lot of time on computer????
Denise Routhier Ledoux I believe your mind is more powerful than evidence...meaning what you believe about something can have a stronger effect than what’s actually happening. However I do believe spending too much time disconnects you from your world and the people in it. I’ve noticed those are say that the feel down generally aren’t involved with other people...as in a small group in church, or any other group involvement that adds meaning to their life. If you don’t kind me asking, do you believe in God? Involved in a church where you feel you belong?
1. exercise
2. create something
3. get more sleep
4. meditate
5. listen to music
6. make a check-list
7. don't get attached to anything...(vices, tv, social media, junk food, texting)
8. build momentum
Thanks for adding that summary!
Thank you, you just save me a bunch of time!
You are generous Alex thx
@@alepta8476 you better watch the whole thing. This comment is good only as summary, because it is doesn't explain why
Isn’t there just a pill???
The first day I did 20 min of cardio made me feel amazing. Instant dopamine boost. Then , knowing that I can feel that good every day motivated me to keep that routine.
Makes me think of a quote from Ralph Waldo Emerson, "Do the thing, then you will have the power." I'm with you, it's tough to get started, but once you get going you don't want to stop!
Jesse Gandy lucky you! that ain't happen to me
Jz use weed
I subscribed after watching this

Your welcome
LIFE # Thanks for making that little summary for my viewers!
LIFE # lol that's nice of you! Thank you!
Michael Unks thanks a million for educating me on this topic. I made it so it would help people. Btw you can pin the comment if you like it so it will help your viewers
Michael Unks thanks for pinning my comment.. but point 7. Don't get attached to anything like don't use much of social media TV texting especially gaming this increases dopamine so is it good? Not in excess but to get rid of depression..
LIFE # my pleasure! As far as point 7, I mean don't get addicted to anything, to feel you need it to feel good because when you're attached to something out of your control, it ultimately leads to negative consequences
As a 10 year long meth, opiate, and Benzodiazapen addict, I'm 3 or 4 months clean and I feel worse than ever. I still feel like shit every morning and just have no motivation to do absolutely anything. I have no motivation to do anything, not even go look for a job or get out of bed. This inspires me to get up and try some of these. I've been jobless, friendless, no girlfriend, no money, no nothing at all for 7 months now and have had 3 suicide attempts and got locked in crisis stabilization for 5 to 7 days all 3 times... I feel so hopeless but this is inspirational.
Derek Martin, my friend, you have nowhere to go but up! Times are tough for you now, but I truly believe you are a handful of daily habits that will transform your life, making you feel incredible and allowing you to make a positive difference in the lives of many people.
Dr. Michael Unks Thanks for the quick reply sir. I graduated high school with honors and went to college and could have done a lot of positive things, but I took a wrong turn and I ruined everything I had going for me. Hopefully I can build myself back up. I've been on numerous anti depressants but they didn't help much, if any. Thanks for the kind positive words.
Derek, you have an inspiring personal story in the making. It's easy for most to never get back up after falling down, but I can tell you're in the process of getting back up. Keep looking for answers on how to turn your life around, you'll find them. Also know there are people out there who care about you and want you to succeed. If I can be of any help, please let me know what I can do for you!
Derek Martin your body chemistry is off track take cold shower for a whole week
you can do it Derek!
I am struggling with both addiction and cancer. I so appreciate you making this video. My life is changing and I am scared to death, this helped me. 🙏
I happy to hear that!
Thank you Michael, I related most to the devices portion of the video. I have been so attached to my social media to the point where I'm always expecting something out of it
Thank you for the time making this video Michael. Loving the energy!
Dustin Williams Thanks, man! Happy to make it
Thank you i needed that 😎🙏
Michael Unks thank you for the brilliant video. I am even more impressed with your responses to your viewers posts. Hope you keep sharing the knowledge and love that youve shared here
Thank you for taking the time and reaching out with a comment! Your kind words make me want to start making videos again...I’ve taken the last month off
@@MichaelUnks Take a break if you must but please do keep going. I have benefitted from two of your videos today and I am in India - thats quite some reach isnt it? Thanks again. I look forward to seeing the next video from you next month.
Thank you for sharing!
Thank you for this video
Great information! Thank you.
Love this! Very helpful for me. ☺️
Super video! Thank you! 🙏🤍🙏
After many yrs of not exercising due to age and weight gain I started to lift weights. Then I realized that I had to do cardio too. I felt a bit defeated b/c to begin with I hate lifting weights & then thought I was too old to dance around in group exercise. My sisters suggested I try again b/c I was contemplating resigning myself to take the easy route quit & not care about getting toned. Well this week I tried different group exercises like Zumba, high & low cardio, & a pump class all to upbeat fun music. I was so energized, exhilarated & happy. I even lifted weights right after as well and didn’t feel bored. The lesson for me is to reward your with something that is healthy and makes you happy before doing a dull task it made it more than tolerable for me. What is also motivating is that today there are people of all ages exercising, which I find inspirational! Just remember to pace yourself where you are, to have fun first, and to put the right amount of exertion.
LCbr1j I love it! Thanks for sharing
Michael I come across lot of stuff long talk that doesn't work in most cases.
You are very precise, to the point and practical

MJ B I'm blushing on that comment. Just so you know lol

@@MichaelUnks you should straighten it though!
That smile at the end says it all my friend....hope u have a great literally everyday❤️
I hope the same for you! Thank you.
@@MichaelUnks ...wow this literally increased my dopamine buddy...u r my first comment as a reply from the channel....i am subcribing you❤️....my insta(tony_1013_)
I’m happy to hear this! Are there any future video topics you’d be interested in seeing on this channel?
@@MichaelUnks hey buddy good to see you again...yes of course,ketogenic diet...it is something that is very impor.....ohh i'll leave that upto you...you'll do the explaining way better and hope this info. Gives a bit of help on ur channel friend
Thanks for responding. I don’t really cover fitness and health in my videos, but I do appreciate you letting me know. I have watch Thomas Delauer for fasting and keto information. He does a great job if you haven’t check his videos out yet
I liked on the serotonin's video. the pattern of it. If you can do it also for dopamine I will be so grateful to you.
I've gotten into Blender recently (3D modeling) and having suffered an injury from work, most I could do is sit on the PC. Day after day for the past 2 weeks almost, and my dreams have spiked. I was on a long run of not dreaming at all... so by creating things and thinking about what to do, day after day, has really spiked the dreams in that aspect.
+Add in music.
+Checklist in project in Blender.
-Definitely not on board with 'getting addicted to anything' though lmao
Good stuff man
Thanks for watching!
im subbinggg.... so grateful i foound this channel today. r u still making videos?
It’s been almost two years since I made a video..not making videos at this time. I appreciate you leaving a comment and subscribing though!
I really like this video! A lot of the things you mention have made me feel validated/ okay in the past. I never thought about how these activities could truly benefit me on a brain chemical way. I will have to check out your channel to see why weed was in there a bit. Michael blube sucks.
It's really good video, amazing content.
Nice video. Charismatic young man.
I really love that painting!!
Nyokazelen am impulse buy, but I'm loving it!
Love the video, love the blue v-neck lol, love the painting...love the too cute humor
Suzanne Robinson, Awe shucks lol thank you!
I like your humor and the picture is great. All suggestions are good ones. May I suggest that these are all great things to do, this and the serotonin video, but when one is low on serotonin and dopamine and is very depressed these can be very hard things to do. You might want to address that in your videos. I think they are all things that will help depression because they will increase serotonin and dopamine but can be overwhelming to do all of these things when one is very depressed. I'm not being critical it's just an added thought.
jo ho, thanks for commenting! You made excellent points, when you're down you don't feel like doing many of these this. I've learned how true this quote from Emerson is, "do the thing, then have the power." many times it's the action that you take when you don't feel like it, that rewards you with dopamine. I was planning on doing a video on hopelessness, and feeling lonely, maybe I can mention ways in those videos. Thanks again for your input, my friend!
Dr. Michael Unks you're welcome. I also really like the way that your videos move very quickly and you get to the point really fast. some videos on CZcams their introduction is 10 minutes before they get to their first point. And I also like the way you summarize the points you make at the end to reinforce them.
Good job!
jo ho, again, thank you so much for commenting and thank you for the encouragement!
to build momentum i pray salah 5 times everyday .. and it is compulsory in islam ..
Thanks for watching!
I agree with your advice, thanks I have a question for you that is I forget. what I read after 1 hour and I am 50 years old do you have something for me to improve my short memory please ??

How about how to increase dopamine receptivity and receptors themselves?
hiit,cold shower
The painting is great. Don’t want you to think I’m all negativity haha.
aye nice outro song. love me some electric mantis
Can you make 1 more video on this topic
Make a checklist..... Awesome....
Prashant Sah, thanks for commenting buddy!
4- meditation depends on how you define it but better to choose DEEP BREATH for a 1 min to 5 min, or to think deeply each time about something: stars, anatomy, sea, flowers,...
5- depends because many contain subliminals, so lead to a toxic dopamine doing auto destruction by time.
From my experience.
I have subscribed 🖒informative video thanks sir
Muhammad Imran you’re welcome!
Do you think this can be the cure for fibromyalgia gastritis ibs and prostatitis?
Excellent video Michael Unks! I would like to know where to buy that picture/painting! Please respond. I am interested in neuroscience and I got over a depression and suddenly feel euphoric! Weirdest thing so I looked up these videos regarding serotonin and dopamine. Please reply!
Eagle Freedom, you can find that picture by going to teepeat.com and searching "clouds." Happy to hear you enjoyed the video!
I do all of these but still! Going back to prescription drugs
Thank you . You said it right.
All the things you said are supper important to be a happy person. Drugs and alcohol make the seller rich and the user's poor.

Goggle “five piece wall art” and you’ll see several options
