Do you need a dopamine detox? Probably, but it’s not what you think, says Jan Gerber – SheerLuxe
Do you often feel nostalgic for those days when you could sit on a plane, go for a walk, or speak to friends without constantly checking your phone? Or, even more specifically, do you feel irritable, stressed out and unable to enjoy those activities one’s ‘supposed’ to enjoy (e.g. exercise, healthy eating or reading?)
