Скачать или смотреть How Stress, Dopamine & Habits Rewire Your Brain | Neurologist Explains Neuroplasticity

Why do you feel mentally exhausted even after resting?
Why does motivation fade, focus drop, and stress feel constant?

In this episode, Dr. Siddharth Warrier, a neurologist breaks down how stress, dopamine, sleep, habits, and modern life are actively rewiring your brain. We explore the real difference between stress, fatigue, and burnout, why willpower keeps failing, how dopamine traps keep you stuck starting but not finishing, and what actually helps your brain recover.

This conversation explains neuroplasticity in simple terms , how your brain adapts to pressure, scrolling, hustle culture, poor sleep, and chronic stress and how you can rewire it safely without burning out.

If you’re struggling with focus, anxiety, mental fatigue, or burnout, this episode will help you understand what’s happening inside your brain and what to do next.
