I Tried a Dopamine Replenish Routine for 24 Hours *The Anti Dopamine Detox*

[@KeltieOConnor]

Ps to clarify the avocado reference, I am VERY allergic to them . The world’s most ironic allergy for a fitness channel I know. My body loves gluten & diary, but put me near a 🥑 and you’re driving me to the hospital haah

[@purseypurslane]

FINALLY another person who is good with gluten and dairy, they are not poison! Quite the opposite -- bring on the sourdough bread and kefir or cottage cheese! I just found your channel and am liking it very much -- hopefully you'll do some of your skincare products, hair health and diet. Those are never boring and very motivating!

[@shelseys8029]

I am also allergic to avocados and it makes it hard when they are always mentioned as one of the best healthy fats.

[@AnrupB]

Latex allergy? Avocados are one of the foods that cross react.

[@katrinefosgerau3351]

Not gonna lie, you are to me what Huberman is to you

[@madeleinemetalmusic]

Honestly same. I love a good bio hack but for some reason I just CAN'T listen to him so I rely on Keltie to drop the news lol

[@dollyta]

best comment ever, and very true

[@jeovannasanchez369]

This was poetic; I feel so seen bc same 🤣❤️

[@aday-su5om]

One of my “delayed dopamine” routines that has worked for me is scheduling the 1 night a week that I get take out to be Sunday night. I do a lot of my chores on Sunday to prep for the week ahead, including my grocery shopping, and by that night I have no motivation left to cook and wash dishes. So looking forward to takeout keeps me motivated and less stressed about all the stuff I have to do that day, and I save money by eating the things I cook the rest of the week but still getting to enjoy restaurant food on a scheduled plan/budget.

[@jenmatt1923]

This sounds like a good idea. It's a shame the restaurants in my area are often closed on Sundays.

[@madeleinemetalmusic]

Holy shit this sounds like an AMAZING idea. I have band rehearsal on Sundays along with taking care of my kids during the day beforehand. After rehearsal we pick up the kids and clean the house. I often make a big dinner but leave the kitchen a MESS for Monday because as relaxing as it is to finally sit and eat I still have the kitchen anxiety. Hmmmmmm. I am going to try your method and while the food is coming I will take a shower and relish in my clean home. THEN eat the awesome takeout food and all we have to do is clean up the bags and napkins. I'm SO going to try this for this upcoming Sunday! Thankyou for sharing!

[@TrainAndTrade]

We love the Huberman stuff. It's backed by great studies and research, and it's nice to hear him share his findings. But it's even better when someone like yourself actually puts it in practice and reports back. Ultimately, do what you like and motivates you. We appreciate all your content.

[@Ccchristopher6483]

Keltie I don't think you realize the amount of joy you bring to people with your genuine positivity and happiness. God bless you.

[@docter4ever]

I personally love all the huberman references. It's like I hear him on a podcast and then see it come to life in your videos.

[@MiaCatAdventures]

Taking Facebook off my mobile was the best thing I’ve done for my mental health 🎉

[@KeltieOConnor]

Love that you found that!!

[@ReDuVernay]

Relatable! I ended up having to remove messenger now too, since they added that new feature where the newsfeed is right there in messenger.

[@macsek29]

I think you are my favorite person on KZbin. Thanks for sharing your energy with us! Love from Budapest, Hungary!

[@nadiacambridge7539]

Every Monday on my lunch time I have scheduled happiness. I go and deliver meals to elderly shut ins with no family. It’s not just dropping off food it’s making sure that someone has checked on them that day. It’s humbling. And I’m pretty sure it’s impossible to figure out who benefits more. In a world of bad news it shifts my focus to getting to make a little good news. Best “life hack” advice ever. Volunteer on something that you think makes your world a little better. You get to see other people actively working on creating positive change. It doesn’t have to be a big time commitment but don’t just write a check- be present.

[@nadiacambridge7539]

And I mad love your content. Yours is the tv show I look forward to. Also I have beings watched you and I’m better for it. 💐🥂✨

[@MajestyHammond]

Love this! Thank you for sharing.

[@kathrynmarie9592]

Keltie, your content has helped me so much with my health. Thank you for your consistent quality content!

[@KeltieOConnor]

So happy my videos could help 🩵

[@CrisOnTheInternet]

Hard earned dopamine came to me in the form of a jigsaw puzzle, I engaged in the activity without rush and definitely need to walk in the morning before work even if it's not bright and sunny.

[@franknsteinsASMR]

Keltie o'connor I"ve found magic in your videos thank you ma'am and for those who don't believe in magic you will never find it ❤

[@mindelicious]

I'm so happy you've mentioned not questioning your own standards of growth and celebrating small steps and not to put “go viral” as a usual, easy-to-achieve thing! I've started my dance workouts channel and so excited when a single person is subscribing😅 and people around sounds like “emm, it's even not a 100/day”.

[@wasicu88]

I gave up caffeine 3 years ago and was so surprised by the changes I noticed after 6 months caffeine free. I would be so interested to see how you would approach a challenge like that! You have such a positive approach to tough challenges.

[@amandarose7465]

Your content this year has been next level -- thank you!

[@grey7331]

I love that you are a part of my saturday routine ❤ love from Germany ☺️

[@KeltieOConnor]

I love being a part of your Saturdays 🩵

[@AnrupB]

That part at the end about focusing on enjoying the process vs only on achieving something grandiose really hits home. Thank you. ❤

[@dollyta]

my wish is to forget i ever watched your videos so i can binge watch them again. your content really is my fav! running 5k today, you're my guru haha

[@zzzz000]

just stumbled upon your channel again - used to watch 4 years ago , glad to see you still here and well, will be watching again I'm at a glow up self care stage which these videos help a lot with. thanks ! :)

[@agneswillrichdeoliveira7809]

I found your channel last week, and I have been binging your videos no stop! Tks so much for your content, it helps me a lot with my healthy and fitness journey

[@Andi-Bee]

Three little words. !!!!!Rescue more huskies!!!! As a recovering addict(18 years clean) Achieving any feeling(s) was initially a challenge. I'm prob one of the only people in my inner circle who does not have the tic tack or Twitter/X. For me, I have to good fortune to dedicate my days and nights to the husky pack. Right now that is it's own challenge as my eldest is going into her final times on this rock. Getting the happy vibe takes work sometimes, but is so worth it in the end. Stay amazing ! 🐾 🐾 ❤ 🐾 🐾 ❤ 🐾 🐾

[@vanessad5629]

Keltie, the self control of only baking one cookie, how? 🤣

[@KeltieOConnor]

FACTS HAHHAHAHHA

[@D9Beats]

Love your channel. One of your vids is a big reason why I Strive to walk 10 miles a day. Hope you get to 1 million subs soon

[@KeltieOConnor]

I love hearing that! Thank you so much 🩵

[@umafa1645]

I have also been implementing little habbits here and there, which all come together to improve my dopamine and fulfillment a lot. So seeing this video was inspirational and motivating, thank you for sharing!!

[@taradevito6751]

Another way to get to bed is maybe put a timer on your tv or set an alarm. Also books are a great way to still escape..,esp smut books lol

[@lisinbondi1240]

balancing it out sometimes comes from being so bored with social media that you take a break to just for the peace of brain space (another dopamine hit) I don't mean anything as structured as meditation but just small simple singular activities

[@ambervelasquez904]

Your very authentic and you share yourself as you see it/experience it, if your watching a lot Huberman currently then of course you talk about it a lot. It’s all good 👍 I love him too 😂❤

[@faithpetit4678]

Watching this on my night shift and listening to you talk about the beauty and comfort of your bed is torture 🤤

[@MxWh1sp3r]

Watching your content is SUCH a treat! Thank you gor this video!

[@fdiw]

Your videos really help me to ground and take a look at small changes to make my life better❤

[@Ronda8215]

Thank You Keltie!! I look forward to your videos. It’s my special screen-time treat the day

[@hugz8kisses]

Does anyone else get ptsd when keltie sits on the couch with coffee? Flash backs to double spill day.

[@notthatkindofsam]

Put the colour filter “greyscale” on your phone. I’ve done it for 2 weeks and I can fall sleep easier and don’t feel the constant need to check my phone.

[@sewnforsport]

I love that I’m not the only one who makes one giant cookie! 🍪

[@andrearoose5919]

I LOVE the Huberman references!!!

[@DreamKrazy2028]

Absolutely agree, Keltie! Taking time to replenish dopamine and rejuvenate is crucial, especially after the grind of basketball or any physical activity. Excited to see your journey and maybe get some tips for my own detox routine!

[@KeltieOConnor]

So happy you agree!!!

[@Angie_P]

You're an adult now! You can sleep on the couch if you want to especially if it's as comfy as it looks! (BTW, where is the couch from? I'm in the market for one, looking for suggestions)

[@TradeWise1000]

This video was so good!! All your videos are good but this one hit!

[@soniaaafelicity]

Always look forward to your videos! Thanks for always being real ❤

[@zenmariac7956]

I feel the need (aggressively) to protect my morning coffee routine because I've found that it is the actual thing I look forward to when waking up in the morning, and if I'm doing a "coffee detox" (usually if I've had stomach issues or too much anxiety), I legitimately don't even want to get up. It's sad in a way, but in another way... why can't we have little micro-pleasures to look forward to and to make every day, ordinary life enjoyable (or tolerable)? I definitely struggle with this as a chronically low-dopamine person - when I do a dopamine detox to reset, I'm actually forcing myself to live below the average person's baseline because I tend to not "shoot up" on much dopamine triggers the way the average person does anyway. Cheesy to point out, but that's why balance is the real goal - because balance will look different to each person and their unique experience. The one dopamine detox I regularly exercise is music dieting - I'll do podcasts instead of music for a week or two when I notice that I'm not even enjoying my favorite music. It works every time! When I turn my faves back on, they are way more stimulating (in a good way) - I can tell by if my body dances without consciously choosing to :) Thanks for always making a great motivational or thought-provoking video Keltie! And you go ahead and enjoy that morning cuppa joy!

[@kathleensolomon9041]

Loving the new content and the explanations are understandable. I listen to Huberman during work, but it can be tough to digest when multitasking. Little bites are the best, especially when it’s a cookie! 🍪

[@jacquiejax]

Quite a few great insights here. I’m definitely coming back to this video. 😊

[@laurenjacquin8562]

I love the huberman content. It’s like getting spark notes from him!

[@KeltieOConnor]

So happy you agree! That’s what I want just don’t want to over kill 😅💚☘️

[@mynameistania]

Amazing video Keltie! 🎉 Definitely wanna try the morning sunlight tip 🙂 Just wondering have you tried the Morning Pages exercise? I highly recommend trying it out! Keep up the good work 😊

[@acoke4u]

yeah Huberman is great but it's also only one persons approach to health. I find his routine a bit on the minutia-side

[@KatessaT]

Postures looking good Keltie! Love your videos. Thank you for making everything so realistic. You make me feel like I can achieve those goals I want to achieve.

[@mateoborton]

Love this....very balanced. avocado is your enemy too?? I do like learning about the distilled andrew huberman from you. His content is just too long for me right now.

[@ElaineWidrick]

I quoted Huberman for the first time on Sunday! Then it was like word vomit for our entire hike lol!!!

[@tiger_burning]

I think big weddings can have this dopamine drop for the bride and groom for some couples. Upping the ante on wedding planning for years, a giant big party and then afterwards feeling empty

[@KeltieOConnor]

Ooooo such good insight!!!

[@barbbrazes869]

Love your channel! Fun, inspiring, great energy and humor!

[@KeltieOConnor]

Thank you so much!!☘️💚

[@nikki.nav.]

Hi! Just subscribed YESTERDAY and omg where have you been???? Why have the algorithms not aligned and brought you to my attention sooner?! I don't get it. Not only are we fitness/music junkies but I'm acknowledging my Huberman addiction too! Better late than never!

[@amynealon9411]

I would definitely recommend the book Scarcity Brain by Michael Easter - if you haven’t read it already. He talks a lot about the hard earned rewards vs the quick repeatable loops of social media or slot machines. I also love his other book The comfort crisis.

[@Villager565]

I love that coffee mug. It’s huge!

[@michaelflak9463]

love all your videos your doing amazing Keltie you get me motivated to workout

[@KeltieOConnor]

You’re so welcome Michael!

[@Lynnie17196]

I don’t know why someone isn’t saying this yet and believe me I love your channel and your content- but are you alright? You’re starting to wither away and I’m worried you might be doing too many of these challenges consecutively 🙁 content is important but your health is surely more important right? Don’t shoot me in the comments I’m just concerned ❤

[@senderoni5oh]

I fall asleep on the couch every night.. I keep saying it’s not happening again. And I wake up on the damn couch again at 2am Lolol

[@JessKaplan]

I do this weird thing at night once in a while where I go between opening my Instagram and then email and then Facebook looking for new notifications. Then I start scrolling a bit and repeat 😳 It freaks me out to realize that I literally dopamine addicted.

[@madison.j.bowers]

Omg the part about the small wins and not seeking overnight growth; literally changed my brain just now. Love you and your content so much! If we were friends in real life you could come pet my dogs 💕 I’ll pet them now on your behalf 😊

[@ReDuVernay]

Okay, so did you do that dry erase board drawing of Huberman? Cause if so, great job!

[@christinesophia9318]

I KNEW that you would say something about Caffeine just when I heard Huberman talking about it. hahaha. 🥰 Greetings from Germany

[@Shortcake-AZ2]

Have you ever tried aloe vera as part of your face routine? I met a woman in her 50’s and looked no older than 30 who swears by it. Fig fan of you and your videos. Maybe testing the aloe could be one for the future. Thanks!

hi, try balance your huberman obsession with listening to jay shetty or diary of a ceo (especially jay sheets

[@Drrck11]

Great advice. But I'm not doing that cold exposure thing. Dipped in the Atlantic Ocean one winter time. Came out of the water sounding like Michael Jackson. 🥶

[@shelseys8029]

I love your dedication to research and testing. I have a request for a video. I’m confident even that it will equate to lots of content. And specifically beneficial to you and your audience. Girl let’s see you biohack like a woman 💪🌷 I recommend videos on cycle syncing! I’m reading the book In the Flow by Alisa Vitti about unlocking hormonal advantage and how as women we arent harnessing our natural energy and potential. I would love to see your take and your benefits from this perspective.

[@GeneenBecker]

Love your videos they are so relatable ❤ Have to ask, where did you get your couch??? I’m not sure I would want to get off it either 😂

[@AF2277S]

I know you just said you don't have crashes at 2pm but I swear you also drink caffeine monster at mid day which would probably explain why that doesn't happen. That's not you not crashing, that's you pushing the can down the road.

Nothing against the guy, big Mr. H…. Just a small note that many scientists actually did not hear about him or did but just chuckle at the references. And i say it as a scientist myself. He is just a human being doing his best as he can.

[@user-strength10]

Might sound like dated advice but i remember the good ole days (such as the 90's and first 10 yr's of the 2000's lol) before smart phones, imagine if we went back to using side-kicks and flip phones. Fun fact, casinos, "substances", tik-tok, and po*n all get folks addicted using the same instant gratification method (hence the addictions) tik-tok is actually currently being legislated here in the US to be banned.... at the end of the day just putting the phone away and finding contemptment (as you mentioned at the 13:00 mark), or better yet, gratitude would be better (Some gym bro's after awhile hop on "juice" usually do to that "never be satisified attitude).... btw unrelated but thanks for answering that question on shift work in your podcast, as my job makes anything "routine-wise" basically impossible

[@KeltieOConnor]

Hope this shift works answer helped! Happy we could give some tips 🩵

[@KeltieOConnor]

Defiantly not praising him don’t worry :) Just an interesting observation about someone whose experienced too much of a good thing

[@M.A-k6u]

*Unfortunately, a lot of this is hocus pocus. So I am going to tell you how to fix your dopamine.* First, the problem: Why does this happen to us? It is the human condition. We humans are extremely adaptable. We adapt to something and make it into the norm faster than any other living creature on earth. So, for example. I pinch your hand. You say ow, and you tell me the pain scale for example is 5/10. For the next few days, I keep doing the same thing, over and over and you will notice that the pain scale is not a 5 any more. It's dropping down to 4, 3 etc... You are adapting to the norm. The same thing works with lifting weights. The body recognizes you are putting a lot of effort to work certain muscles and sends signals to repair and strengthen said muscles to adapt to the situation, making you grow in strength. The same thing happens to something positive. You eat something sweet like a kitkat and go "Yeah, it's alright. It's a Kitkat." You had many kitkats before. You had many chocolates before. You're used to this and give it a 4/10. Now, watch on youtube to some tribes in africa who never had chocolate have a kitkat for the first time. They are blown away by the taste and give it a 9/10. Their 10/10 is your 4/10. So let's think about this for a moment. If your standard of dopamine is very high. It becomes impossible for you to achieve it because your baseline of dopamine that you are used to, is incredibly high. Now. The solution: You don't "restart" your dopamine. However... You do Lower your dopamine standard to a new norm. How does that happen? Hardship. For every living being on earth, and us up until the industrial revolution, hardship lead to success and a dopamine reward. From something as simple as going and hunting for your food. So your first order of business, is to start limiting things that induce joy. Things like, sweets, video games, relaxation, music etc... And you introduce more physical hardship into your life, something controlled and not dangerous. Have you ever been outside a few hours when it's cold and you were wet or dirty, you step inside and take a long hot shower and it's amazing? It's just a hot bath, but at the time being, it's so good. Here's one thing you can try. Do an hour of Cardio and medium intensity, not weight lifting, cardio. Make sure you have cooked HEALTHY food prepared ahead of time that's warm. Once you finish your cardio, jump in, take a shower (Hot or cold, whatever you prefer). Jump out of the shower, wear CLEAN comfortable clothing, like PJs. Sit down and watch something light hearted like family guy and have your dinner. I guarantee you'll feel great. You were miserable during that hour of cardio, but for the next 4 hours, you're gonna feel pretty good. There's been studies of people who experience the most joy/laughter, are people who are going through military boot camp. Their conditions hard enough that the baseline for dopamine becomes very low. Anything over a 2/10 is joy. I did military boot camp and coming after work at 6pm to just shower, eat, and rest on my bunk was so joyful, I might as well have been on vacation in on a beach. We laughed over the stupidest jokes, and after boot camps, I rode a "high" unlike anything I have ever felt that I wanted to go through it all over again. That high is known as "PTGD", similar to PTSD, but positive. TLDR: Too much of a good thing, is bad.
