Pleasure Chemical Vacation Planning

Event or ActivityTom WalmaComment

Idea: To plan vacations around the science of brain chemistry, such as the concept that it takes a few hours or days to fully replenish pleasure-inducing brain chemicals. For example, if it takes a few days to replenish a brain pleasure chemical like dopamine, in the meantime, you could schedule leisure activities which require different brain pleasure chemicals, such as a rollercoaster which requires lots of adrenaline but not much dopamine. Also: varying your schedule so your body can't predict its future state and level you out (i.e. make you bored)
