Imagine having the power to influence your brain chemistry for a more focused, creative, and motivated day.

It’s not as far-fetched as you might think.

With the right lifestyle and nutrition habits, you can control your brain’s pre-existing neurochemical pathways by enhancing the neurochemicals you’re already producing.

There are many neurochemicals (more than 100!), but when it comes to your productivity and overall mental health, you’re dealing with a handful of especially potent molecules:

  1. Dopamine
  2. Epinephrine
  3. Acetylcholine
  4. Serotonin

These four molecules are involved in a wide variety of mental states and behaviors, including focus, creativity, motivation, drive, learning, alertness, mood, relationships, and feelings of well-being.

We’ll look at all four of these molecules on three different levels:

  1. Baseline
  2. Directed
  3. Task-oriented
