If going home for the holidays leaves you anxious, exhausted, or feeling like you’re twelve years old again, this is not emotional weakness. This is your nervous system.When you’re around your family of origin, the oldest wiring in your brain comes back online. These patterns were built before you had adult self-regulation. Your limbic system reacts fast, old roles resurface, and your regulated adult self can get pushed offline without you realizing it.What you’re experiencing is neurological

Winter Blues or Brain Overload?If you have been feeling heavier, foggier, or slower this winter, you are not broken. Your brain is overloaded.Many people mistake this for depression, but often it is a miswired nervous system struggling to regulate in the dark, cold season.Less sunlight lowers dopamine and serotonin. More isolation weakens emotional rhythm. More screen time overstimulates your reward pathways.Your motivation dips and your mood flattens because your system is strained, not because you

Holiday Overstimulation: How the Season Hijacks Your Dopamine—And What Your Brain Actually NeedsIf December leaves you anxious, numb, restless, or overwhelmed, your brain is not malfunctioning.

The Neuroscience of Flow: Why Stillness Fuels Your DopamineIf you feel overstimulated, tense, or stuck in control mode, your brain is not the problem. It’s your rhythm. In this episode, I show you how your nervous system shifts from chaos to coherence when you stop forcing and start flowing.Flow is not a mindset. It’s a biological state in which your brain waves, heart rhythm, and emotional circuits sync. When that harmony returns, your dopamine stabilizes, your focus strengthens, and you feel

Neuroscientist Explains Why You Can’t “Fix” Your Dopamine You’ve tried to fix yourself — more routines, more tracking, more control. But neuroscience shows what you’re really chasing isn’t progress… it’s another dopamine hit.When you constantly tweak, check, or perfect, your brain lights up — not from growth, but from anticipation. That’s why stillness feels unsafe. You’ve trained your nervous system to equate safety with activity.Real discipline isn’t about doing more. It’s about learning to trust

You quit everything — screens, stimulation, even connection — thinking it would make you feel alive again.But three weeks into your dopamine detox, you feel worse. Numb. Flat. Drained.That’s not failure — it’s feedback. Your brain isn’t broken; it’s withdrawing.When you’ve spent years wired for constant novelty, cutting dopamine off doesn’t regulate your system — it crashes it.Your neurons go silent, your motivation disappears, and your nervous system panics in the quiet.The truth?

You’ve seen dopamine everywhere—on shirts, mugs, even tattoos—but the real issue isn’t “more dopamine,” it’s imbalance. In a world wired for novelty—clicks, explicit matter, endless goals—your brain learns compulsion, not clarity. Dopamine was meant to be a teacher, not a trophy.This November isn’t just NoFap—it’s No Numb November. Because the problem isn’t only the behavior, it’s the numbing your nervous system keeps chasing.

You think you’re just catching up—but suddenly your chest tightens, your breath shortens, and your brain whispers, “You’re not enough.” That’s not a lack of discipline. It’s a nervous system hijack. 🧠Every scroll trains your brain to crave stimulation instead of stillness and comparison instead of contentment. This is the digital envy loop—a dopamine-driven trap that floods you with pleasure and shame all at once, leaving you restless, anxious, and disconnected from your true worth.But here’s the

The Dopamine Illusion — Why Pleasure Isn’t the Same as JoyYour brain isn’t broken—it’s been tricked into chasing quick dopamine spikes and calling them happiness. That’s the illusion. Every swipe, scroll, and surge of stimulation rewires your reward circuits, dulling the calm rhythm of your mind—the peak alpha state where real joy and creativity live.But here’s the hope: your brain is neuroplastic. It can change, grow, and heal when given the right input. Through stillness, intention, and the right

Dr. Trish Leigh Podcast ·

2025/10/12

You don’t need more willpower. You need coherence.Trying harder isn’t the answer — it’s your brain that needs realignment. Neuroscience shows that willpower lives in your prefrontal cortex, but when dopamine spikes from overstimulation, that part of your brain literally goes offline. That’s why white-knuckling through temptation never works.True discipline isn’t about control — it’s about coherence. When your nervous system is balanced and your higher self is in control, discipline flows naturally

Dopamine Hijack: How Screens Miswire Your Brain (and How to Rewire It Back)Have you ever opened your phone to “just check one thing”… and suddenly 45 minutes are gone? That isn’t weakness—it’s your brain being hijacked. Dopamine, the chemical that drives motivation, gets rewired by screens to chase novelty and notifications instead of real-life rewards.

Your phone isn’t just distracting you—it’s hijacking your brain. Every ping, scroll, and AI “interaction” trains your nervous system to crave chaos instead of calm.

When I spoke on Jubilee’s Middle Ground with porn performers, I stood up for this: porn isn’t empowerment — it’s exploitation.
