Books mentioned on Time Perception & Entrainment by Dopamine, Serotonin & Hormones
In this episode, I discuss how our brain and body track time and the role that neurochemicals, in particular dopamine and serotonin, but also hormones such as melatonin, allow us to orient ourselves in time.
Andrew Huberman recommended Your Brain Is a Time Machine by Dean Buonomano and The Philosophy of Physics by Dean Rickles.
