Dopamine Mountain

We are in a global pandemic of dopamine abuse. The sparkle that some people have in their eyes- That energy, enthusiasm and joy- That is dopamine. We are born with a certain amount as children, and after that, we need to create our own. Ironically, we can get it by doing what we don't want to do. Then we can do whatever we want. We can become a master of dopamine, instead of its victim.

There is a simple way to completely overhaul dopamine and motivation, and all it takes is re-ordering our efforts and rewards, to rewire the dopamine reward system. This book shows how to rapidly enhance willpower and focus by applying deliberate challenge followed by reward, play and celebration. The order of events is paramount, and the research proves it.


What was once a block, is now transformed into growth. This has profound implications for people living with executive dysfunction, ADHD, addiction, depression, boredom and other symptoms of low dopamine and low GABA. The author was previously a Long Covid sufferer with chronic fatigue, migraine and symptoms of severe ADHD, and has made a massive recovery from all of them. This book is proof that the simple strategy works, and that anyone can do it.
