009: How to Create a Sustainable Minimalist’s Bathroom

Declutter, tidy + sustainably minimize your bathroom with simple, action-oriented steps.

Did you know? Most expired medications shouldn’t be flushed. And nail polish? It’s considered a hazardous household waste and should never be tossed in the trash.

Bathrooms are havens for clutter. They’re hideaways for pesky plastic, too. If you’ve been wanting to declutter and make more sustainable your bathrooms, this episode is for you. Because first we responsibly minimize the clutter. Then we organize smart and – finally – we get serious about creating eco-friendly sanctuaries out of our bathrooms.

Unhappy? You're Normal

Cultural messaging and suggests you should be happy all the time. But your "happy chemicals"—dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin, and endorphin—evolved to motivate survival behavior, not make you happy.

In fact, unhappiness is your brain's default state.

On today's show Dr. Loretta Breuning argues that you can manage your happy chemicals when you know how they work in the state of nature, and she's here to show us how.

Here's a preview:

[9:00] Serotonin is about social dominance. Enter comparison and competition

[13:00] Want a dose of oxytocin? Be part of a herd

[15:30] Endorphin is the brain's natural opioid. But you can habituate to it!

[18:00] Just got something you want? That flood of happiness is dopamine's doing, but dopamine runs out

[25:00] We are living in an era of immense abundance. So why aren't we happy?
