Description
Rewire your brain to break free from the cycle of comparison and status-seeking. Our brains are wired with an innate desire for status, inherited from our animal ancestors who valued strength and position. This instinct drives our emotions about status today, releasing stress hormones when we feel weak or anxious about being left behind. Loretta Breuning sheds light on the brain processes that fuel our pursuit of higher status, revealing how these connections can be rewired to promote contentment and reduce stress. By understanding the underlying drivers of our behavior, you'll learn a new way of thinking that will help you relax and find happiness in your own journey. With this book, you'll discover how to rewire your brain for more joy and less anxiety, letting go of the need to constantly strive for status.
