In this episode, we'll peek at why scrolling isn't a "willpower" problem, but an exploitation of your brain's reward systems (kinda like slot machines!). We'll cover the neuroscience behind the prefrontal cortex "battling" dopamine loops, and how stress makes it worse. We'll also talk about practical strategies that actually WORK with your brain's design, so you can ditch any guilt and reclaim control. . . . oh hi & welcome to “Not Entirely Unlike Tea” – i’m christine collins & i love...
