Dose is an acronym for the four key chemicals that live within your brain and body — dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin and endorphins. Once you have understood how they impact you, you will learn to be guided by them. This book reveals how common feelings like stress, anxiety and depression are directly linked to imbalances in our brain chemistry, often triggered by our rapidly changing, modern lifestyles. Packed with simple tools, it offers strategies to build resilience, cope with stress and feel more fulfilled.

The collection presents an assortment of divergent perspectives and brings out the nuances of life across a wide human spectrum. Divided into three sections, Self, Love and World, the book explores connection, disconnection and reconnection with the self; mines, sieves, collects and disperses the stardust of love; and contemplates over and comments on the larger malaise of the world. Anita Nahal writes in the Foreword that the collection evokes a dreamy desire to remember all that is lost in the audacious hope of securing it again one day.
