Dopamine: Enhanced Package
-
Dopamine, An Introduction
This lesson outlines the basic background information about dopamine and its vital role in learning and development.
-
Mesolimbic Dopamine Pathway
The first of the 4 major dopamine pathways in our mind-body system. This lesson bridges concepts from Module 1, Root the Reset in Your Reality, which focused on the amygdala within the limbic system. This pathway is heavily exploited by stimuli that enter our environment and is the center of focus in addiction. As such, it has a strong impact on all human learning and development.
-
Mesocortical Dopamine Pathway
This lesson focuses on the mesocortical dopamine pathway, that is integral in executive functioning skills that take place in the prefrontal cortex. Root cause of the delicacy of motivational reward behaviors to learning is explored.
-
Nigrostriatal Dopamine Pathway
This lesson explores the nigrostriatal dopamine pathway. As such, we begin to integrate connections beyond our central nervous system and explore chronic impacts of this dopamine pathway throughout our mind-body system.
-
Tuberoinfundibular Dopamine Pathway
The brain structures involved in this dopamine pathway become explicitly interconnected to our peripheral nervous system and have cascading impacts throughout our mind-body system. Gain a simple understanding of the HPA axis and the cascading impacts throughout the mind-body system.
-
Dopamine and ADHD, A Root Cause Approach
This lesson applies principles from Bloom’s Taxonomy of Learning to dopamine and its pathways. Evaluating environmental stimuli and the dopamine pathways that run default for an individual is essential in learning and development. Conscious recognition of our environmental stimuli is addressed here.
-
Dopamine in the Professional Environment
Professional organizations must shift to meet the human needs of its employees, as well as client relations. Examining how dopamine, through motivational reward pathways, are manipulated through performance metrics is brought forth. This lesson also brings forth internal, systemic solutions organizations can take to thrive as 5 generations embody the workforce.
-
Strategic Reflection
10 powerful insights to reflect upon, as it pertains to the role dopamine has on learning, development, and growth. Reflections drive conscious awareness of motivational reward pathways and the relationship they have with environmental stimuli.
