Prioritizing Your Priorities

Prioritizing Your Priorities

“How can I make eco-minimalist choices when I truly don’t have the time? I’m divorced, have two children, and work full time. There simply aren’t enough hours in the day to care for the kids, earn an income, and run the household, let alone add in sustainable living. Help!” 

 

Together, let’s re-prioritize our priorities. On today’s show I’m answering a listener’s question about sustainability fatigue: What’s the best course of action when we’re exhausted, unmotivated, and overworked?

 

Here’s a preview:

[3:30] The ‘how’ and ‘why’ behind making sure your heart-first values get onto your To-Do list

[9:15] The deliberate and tragic trade-off: Why items on your To-Do list are not created equal

[16:00] How to change your verbiage to change your mindset

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?
