And what dopamine does is it gives you
what we call psychic energy.
It gives you a burst of energy to go after something.
And so you can get it from a video game or social media, you can get it from food.
Everything is being ta tailored now.
to to trigger dopamine in children.
Now I'll just tell you very, very quickly about probably the greatest experiment ever done
in self regulation.
It was done by Milner and Olds in nineteen fifty four.
What they did was they gave rats.
Two feeding stations, one where they could get dopamine, and right beside it, one where they could get food and water.
And what they found was that the rats were stuck on the dopamine.
to the point where they wouldn't go to right beside it was food and water, they would ignore the food and water, keep on hitting the dopamine trigger, and die from a lack of food and water.
It's an extraordinary discovery.
And so what's happening is our kids are keeping themselves going.
with a dopamine fix.
So
What we need when we work on self-regulation is we need to the program we run is called self-reg, and it's five steps to lead to something called restoration.
That's a fifth step.
And restoration, what you're restoring is energy.
