What would our lives look like if we drowned out all the noise around us? In our modern world, we constantly expose ourselves to different sources of instant gratification like social media, junk food, video games, alcohol, or porn as these activities provide us with one dopamine hit after another. But it can quickly happen that our consumption gets out of balance and we get addicted to one of those things. Our brain creates impulsive behaviors where we don't even think about engaging in one of these activities anymore but just do it right away. In order to show you the benefits of a life without any toxic consumption, I decided to detox from all of these dopamine sources for 7 days. During that time I recognized massive benefits like boosted productivity, mental clarity, and overall calmness. I hope this video motivates you to take back control over your own life as well!

The irony here is that the RUclips algorithm, whose main purpose is to increase our dopamine, recommended me this video.
We still get dopamine from this video
Pal , the edits the chocolates , the nice house the colour , the info u get one after another the good music between takes is FULL OF DOPAMINE CHARGE ..... if he meant it to be dopanime less I wouldn't watch it and I wouldn't have subscribed
Exactly. The dude is messing with viewers just to get his dopamine. Dopamine fasting is not science based and it is debunked by multiple scientific articles. As harvard edu puts it "You can’t “fast” from a naturally occurring brain chemical".
@@Bromoteknada BOO, did I scare you
@@nope.4837 No, this is not true, there is no such thing as "receptor resetting". If you have any related research, please be my guest. If not, I don't think that saying "can actually help....." is a responsible thing to say.

Congratulations, that takes some serious guts. I hope you're living your best life ❤
It feels really bad to procrastinate the entire day then look back and not be able to pinpoint what exactly you were doing, like it was all pointless

Here I am after 7 Days of Dopamine Detox!
Thank you so much, Niklas Christl, for sharing your personal experience and guiding us through each step of the dopamine detox. Your video not only provided valuable insights but also served as a source of motivation for people like me who were seeking a positive change.
Throughout the detox, I discovered a newfound appreciation for what truly matters in life. Breaking away from the distractions and bad habits allowed me to reconnect with my thoughts, engage in meaningful activities, and cultivate a sense of discipline I never knew I had. These 7 days were certainly not easy, but the sense of accomplishment I feel now is incredible. I can confidently say that this experience has ignited a positive change in my life, and I am committed to continuing this journey of self-improvement. Thank you once again for guiding this path, and I hope your video reaches many more individuals seeking positive transformations.
I watched this video at my office and it has been released two years ago. watching it from east Africa, Ethiopia. I don't have all this resources like shown on this video. I don't have a camera, audio recorder, vehicle, drone, beautiful home around amazing landscape and all extra. I have smartphone on my hand. my phone killed me gradually starting from my age of 16. now I am 28. For all those 12 years my brain activity, my thinking level, my memory, all of my good identity was fadeout. i lost a focus at all currently. I tried a lot of time to escape from it, I tried to watch a lot of video. but nothing happened. today its April 6, 2024 GC. i found this video while i was searching for procrastination. this is experimental video. even if i don't have all this resource to show my change, keep my word, i will overcome all my scattered and wandering mind. I will disengage with all destruction from my phone and my environment. I will regain my focus and become vigilant as my childhood.
Thank you in advance
😢
I am 16 and destroying myself
Pls help❤
So did u do it? The challenge?
Fun fact: Because of his epic cinematography and script we all are having that hit of DOPAMINE.
Better than binging netflix or porn or alcohol or excessive gaming
this guy is doing his best to be ironic
@@mixazizu 🤣😂😂
😂🤣
And we only looked in the comment section because we expected smth which is also because of dopamine
As a psychotherapist, I must add that the root cause of all the addictions is dopamine addiction but that can be replaced by getting dopamine by doing good things too. High Intensity workout, achieving small goals, following a routine, being productive & a good sleep - all of these are a source of good dopamine 👌🏻🔥
Thank you
Yes but the dopamine hits we get from content and junk food is instant and as a result we become impatient and aren't ready to work for the good things. Working out, good sleep, learning new things, they are all slow processes.
@@coldfeetmonsoon9832 yeah, i its called delayed gratification. It is much better though
FACTS ❤️💯🔥
Atomic habits IV
the best edited and filmed youtube videos i have seen over my years on this website, it is cinematic and is especially impressive given that you are doing all the work yourself. i appreciate this topic you chose to share to make a positive impact on people's lives, dopamine really is a issue these days. honestly, your life seems so fruitful and fun, and cute dogs! keep doing what you are doing, i love your photographic style and the way you present the video!
You have literally increased my DOPAMINE . Generally, I don't watch this type of videos but this video was something! . I think this will make a good change in my journey.
When I abuse dopamine, I notice a huge increase in anxiety, laziness, confusion, emotional instability, inability to focus, depression, and mental and physical weakness. So self-destructive and the ruin of many. Never again
We lose the high of life brotha, of being in the moment
This is exactly how I feel when I wake up in the morning and start scrolling through stuff on my phone. I am slowly breaking this awful addiction but it's hard.
Same bro
It’s true brother. I genuinely believe having the discipline to delay dopamine is the key to no depression I just do
Yes I felt that too and it is hard to control, and the feeling of being guilty of weird things done hahahaha watchng p***. The next day, just the same.... 😭
"Boredom gives you a sense of realization and direction in you life".
But how bro
@@Nabam-cf9fi when your bored and you cant do the most stimulating things you can focus more on the less stimulating things which are usually the things that help you achieve certain goals and you have a sense of clarity on what you are doing.
@@ellis1469 yes
Being bored actually really gives you some time to think abt stuff with urself.
Just sharing, It gives me unique ideas for novels and such.
This is one of the people who gave me the courage to start my RUclips channel 2 months ago about self development and now have 74 subs and almost 55 hour watch time. I know it’s not comparable with others but I’m still proud I started because I’ve been learning so much lessons that I couldn’t have learned without getting started in the 1st place
This was useful and a 'penny dropping' moment thank you! . I for the life of me couldn't figure out why I had abandoned my daily walking, my permaculture garden project, and baking and socialising. And yet sit for hours on RUclips (like now) , gaming, and social media. Funnily enough most of the content I was watching was self improvement. I had reduced the amount and thought I'm back on track, but after watching this clearly tells me I need to set some rules and remove all 'hijacking' habits to drive my brain to seek delayed gratification activities.
Great presentation and film work by the way. 🙏
"Spend time in my own life instead of everyone else's". You said more then a mouthful here man. Great stuff
Spent not spend :)
I disliked liked, the comment 😅😳😒🤔🤔
That line changed my months man ..
Not gonna lie this guy's content is underrated
Funny thing is that he's actually showing his life to everyone...
As soon as I started watching this video i got stunned by the cinematography. Then I got amazed by the content. And it made me think a lot…thank you for this masterpiece!
Hey bro
naska che ci fai qui bella per te
Dopamine cinematography
Yesss
The video maybe addictive for someone
So inspirational, dude. I had to look up your age out of curiosity -- and you're a year younger than me. I'm so impressed you figured all of this stuff out so early and had the discipline to follow through with it. I've been trying social media detoxes over the past few months and none were successful. After watching this video though, I really feel inspired to step up my game and try harder.
Thanks a lot man, really.
how's it going?
A few months back I watched this video, i was really into the dopamine detox thing, I watched your video and it was just great, the music, the way you edited, and just the way how it was so calm. It was one of the videos I remember for months. if you can create that, than you are the best kind of creator. I spend hours finding this video hoping to find it, and I did.
The sad truth is "Everyone knows about this...but no one wants to tackle it."
True the urge is just too strong
ok.. you caught me (no joke)
@@justnotme6886 hmm
But then life would be boring so there is no point
"no one wants" more like "most people can't"
"The thing is that dopamine doesn't know what's good for us what isn't"
This line is enough for me to detox dopamine.
But you know what dopamine is good for, we all do.

@@sriku1000 hey spammer!
I'd like to ask, if digital entertainment and music are not allowed, am i allowed to watch all of the entertainment and hearing music inside in my head, the music kinda stuck in my head and playing over and over
Yup. I just watch this video again earlier to motivate me to try again. Got to like 3 days last time and it felt good
Thank you so much for the value you bring to us, it’s so precious❤
I'm so glad I clicked on your channel. I am a writer and I needed to see this. I could never get to my writing. I know I have a book in me. So many distractions can keep you stuck in a muck. But I'm at the point where I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired of wasting my time on scrolling on RUclips. It's so draining. Now I know what I need to do. A detox is in order. Thank you for an awesome video. You are very talented in video editing and creating videos. Also you are a great teacher/motivator. I can see you reaching many people at whatever you do. God bless you.
Girl same
"I'm spending time in my life and not somebody else's." Wow that's a great way to put it. Social media has made us forget about living our own lives. This was inspiring. Thanks man!
Yes 😦
true
As I sit here in lockdown, basically from March 2020 at this point, I think about this.
I have been working hard to keep positive, trying to improve my life. Tbh, living my own life is not a great thing. Too much stress, isolation, and responsibilities. I keep trying though, but it makes it hard to take advice from a young, obviously wealthy, young man littered with opportunities. His life is not my life. I would rather live his life too.
Is like u living a life inside ur phone. Crazy :(
This types of videos are the one that actually give me motivation to change. Not the ones where people just talk about addictions and detoxes but the one where people are actually doing them.

Thank you Niklas Christl!!
I'm 19 yrs old and I'm preparing for a competitive exam by doing online coaching.....that's why it's difficult for me to completely get rid from mobile phone or computer..... I don't use social media, don't play any video games and I don't have any other bad habits.... But due to huge competition in this examination sometimes I get scared which make me distracted from my goals, also I get stucked in you tube shorts and then everything gets soo messy in my mind.... I just wanna overcome from this 😣
Gonna follow "Dopamine detox" and I'll come back to this comment after completing this challenge !!!
Love from India 🇮🇳
hows shit goin ? Hows prep goin for NEET/JEE
yeah bro preparng for jee and facing distractions....going to follow it from today
you have no idea how MUCH i needed this like rn! thanks a lot bro for this motivation! good luck on your future experiments and videos.
I find this weird that what he is saying is exactly what I need and I wasn’t even looking for this video…
Same situation I am in I guess RUclips cares about me idk😅
bro istfg this is so scary like the algorithm is mad
Well, like he mentioned in the video: the world is built around consumerism, which makes the average person be addicted to constant dopamine hits.
Yes guys, we're allowed to have *some* good luck.
yeah mee too
Now i know why I feel like I've lost myself and doing nothing because I'm not interested of anything at all. Thanks for making this video, gotta do my dopamine detox soon
Same
I feel you guys, i'm so unmotivated for everythin. When i try to do something for my university my i go on youtube after 10 minutes or i read whatsapp messages or anything else. I feel empty and i feel like i can't get work done its just sad. Btw i have a presentation on thursday and i am procastrinating as hell
dont do it soon, do it now
Not soon now, time is so precious
soon never comes, do it now
Really enjoying and spending the days without dopamine stimuli makes you realize how quickly the days pass, how many events you miss staring at in reality, and how many beautiful landscapes outside of social networking sites.
having that kind of nature around you is so good when you want to chill and escape all addictions i wish i have something like that, but definetly thinking forward to take the challenge for myself

"We live in a world which is designed to stimulate our emotions in order to maximize profits." That hit different.
And the irony is that he is making videos about that, which are also 'designed to stimulate our emotions in order to maximize profits'!
It's ironic because that's exactly what this video was made to do
@@goldeneddie well to be fair, this is the red pill blue pill scenario. You choose. No one does for you
@@moonease4173 -- Fun idea, but your chioce will be influenced.. If you believe people like this, You're choice is not your own, and from the miseducated, uneducated idea of "Dopamine" going around in the comments, most people rely on it.
This has always been the case. Every single trader always used to manipulate human's emotions to sell their product. A shoe salesman and a hair stylist will manipulate your ego into getting their fancy shoes or getting some weird hairdo, a butcher and a baker will sell their products by telling you how delicious they are and what meals you could prepare with it etc. This is not something new. It is not a company's job to take care of you. They are only there to provide you with a product you may want.
Stop blaming everyone around you and be responsible.
found this at the perfect time man, thanks for the motivation 🙏
Shine on you crazy diamond. Thanks so much for the motivation to start a digital detox in the new year. The Mallorca scenery is splendid. You have a great life already, and you fulfilled your goal of "escaping the constant stimulus of our modern world." May you remain present and alive for all your days.
That's exactly what i needed. Starting my detox today
Good luck
you will need it
👍
Let call me drug dealer.
Bruhhh... u here please upload more of your videos , i like them a lot
remember, if you think you're in too deep and 7 days is a LOT to even imagine, then start slow. Do just 1 day. Remember 1 day is way better than nothing at all.
Hell even for some people, an hour is something too
Or don't cut everything at once, I cant imagine going for a single day without music
@@elsenortortilla5402 It's possible. Believe in yourself and try boosting your self-confidence too. Internet have it own advantages and disadvantages so use it for good.
@@elsenortortilla5402
I also can't imagine a life without music
*I am a musician*
I get the general idea that having too much dopamine can be bad for you because it can cause addictions but then why not just do everything in moderation?
I love soda I love juice but I've been drinking lots of water. I've been trying to limit my videogame time to only a couple hours a day and a few days a week I use social media very minimally (except discord and RUclips but I'm working on that)
I watch little TV or Movies the only thing that's left is working on cutting out more junk food out of my diet in favor of more balanced meals. I don't think going on a detox is a bad idea it just seems a little unnecessary to cut it all out especially when it's gonna make you go into withdrawal
Thanks man, really appreciate how practical and close to home you express these issues. So practical, real and to the point. Thanks for helping be the best of my potential. One new word I've stick to is 'PROGRESSION', really helps me to desire to grow.
This video felt so much refreshing ❤ Thank you Niklas Christl❤
Watched this. Decided to do a social media detox for a week. Got back here to write THANK YOU. Had a calmest and the most productive week in a long time.
I've been really inspired to create content that helps people to stop. There should be more of us !
how did it go?
Did you include digital entertainment too ? Like youtube and netflix ? Thinking about doing the samw
Congrats to you Ricke !
That's great, i hope you can go on for long :)
The first week of stopping is the worst in my opinion, each time I re-stop, I'm still so obsessed with it for so long, that I don't feel productive at all.
I encourage any others that may have the same plan to do so :)
It's a long journey, but a sober life is a life more worth living, I think. Because, as the videast said... The more you drown yourself in thoses bad habit, the more your decisions are less yours and more those of the content you feed yourself with
I'm currently away from Facebook & Instagram. It's been 2 weeks now. Now I realised that I don't really check my phone like I used to before. I do watch movies or listen to music but that's it. Just getting away from these 2 apps shows a lot of difference.
Edit: I'll be reinstalling them after a few more days or weeks or maybe months.

To get dopamine, all of them r for dopamine, there isnt much point
@@aemtiealien1916 dopamine is natural. Its about controlling by what activities you get dopamine
Getting dopamine by completing your work, nature, etc >> getting dopamine by social media, drugs, porn

@@piyush5190 yes and if weigh correctly doing useful and productive activities that gives you dopamine is also a good thing, for example Exercise not only gives you dopamine but also a fit and healthy, anyways its more about how you control it.
Why job bro?
Boredom is actually a very crucial part of creativity imo. Some of the best ideas/thoughts always pop up in your mind when trying to fall asleep, walking alone, having a shower etc (i.e. moments when your brain is not busy and thoughts can flow freely). Boredom is cool and I think people in the past were blessed in a way to have more moments of boredom as it can push you to do or take on things/passions/habits that you wouldn't normally take on in a busy and chaotic life... Great video!
Exactly bro!!!

@@liam-ec-m595 that's true tho
I don't consider walking alone to be boring. It's one of my favorite activities and I find it quite relaxing... Partly because I'm also a lonely person, I guess
this really impressed me a lot. I must think more about me and my life. this video is just like a miracle, it's really magic. thank you, Niklas!❤
These last few weeks, i came through heart-breaking break up with my ex-girlfriend. I was so stressed everyday, this day that im typing this im also stressed, overthinking, last few days i failed on university exams, because i didn't focused on my learning as much as i should've had, i couldn't keep my mind in place, because of everything that is happening in my life. I'm listening to music all the time, im constantly on social media, etc.. This video got on my recommended, and i'm really inspired to finally go with my self-improvement for real, to stop procrastinating, and to get my life in place that it should be. Im gonna start with this for next 7 days, and i hope that i'll finally respect myself and proceed with this thing until i change my life completely.
Keep going brother❤

I came back after 150 days of doing this. It has been a challenge, and it was not fun the first couple of days. But this video gave me the motivation to turn my life around, from a 7 hours of screen time a day life to something much better. I am still going strong. Thank you.

@@oliverchetwin6635 thx
I try to do it but a key part of this I feel is that you need to have friends and people to talk to outside. I don't have that so I rely on social media a lot.
@@DantesInferno96 Yeah, but that's the vicious circle you probably just gotta break, although it's gonna be tough at the beginning - Because how are you otherwise ever gonna find the time to find irl friends if you spend all of it on social media?
Pick an irl hobby or something you like and see if you find like-minded people that way...
The irony of this exercise is that we are quite literally receiving dopamine by watching this video. This was super interesting, though!
Not this specific video. I'm just procrastinating, everything on youtube will give me dopamine at this point.
That's exactly what I was thinking too..!!!
Still confused about the message
My thoughts exactly
not really...this video its kinda boring
Really?
It actually just makes me sad
This is such a good video! Very motivating and pleasing to look at. Very professional. I needed a restart and motivation 11 months ago. I watched this video and I believed it helped me. Now, recently I have again been feeling down and not that motivated. I remembered your video and I'm going to do it again. Thank you!

I've been cognizant of the addictive nature of social media for some time now, and generally manage it pretty well, but I noticed since giving birth to my second child 4 months ago I've slowly been slipping into bad phone habits. I paused the video right around when you deleted your social media to delete mine as well. My favorite quote is at 20:06, "I'm spending my time in *my* life, not anyone else's." That sums it up perfectly. Thank you for this beautiful video and for reminding me what life is really about.

you should do a 7 days without keyboards xD
You're keyboard videos are cool
You should use a membrane keyboard for 1 week as your dopamine detox
I was not expecting the big man glarses himself
Thank you for this video. We have learned that our lives are shackled and make us lose our sense of things. For example, things from our childhood. I will work on applying this.
Great video! I am happy that as a boomer I got to spend the vast majority of my life pre-social media. But even for me, sitting quietly is not easy. I sat in a doctor's waiting room 45 minutes yesterday, just observing and listening and thinking ( or at least trying to think...). Everyone else was staring at a device. You reference the awareness and calmness that came back into your life - research is starting to document the negative effects of screen addiction, and I am afraid we are just seeing the tip of the proverbial iceberg.
This dude definitely lives somewhere near heaven, I mean the house, the surroundings, everything is so friggin beautiful!
And now it's me, in a neighborhood with all the dangers of the world... Leaving me to limit myself to play videogames and watch videos like this one, just because i don't have a place to watch a sunset, or take a safe walk like that... This is the third world experience... This sucks :')
@@MichiruKnoxwell eyyy, its alright buddy, I'm from a "third world country" too😂 we're gonna build a better future for ourselves, keep going🔥
Its called Spain, and I can assure you I wouldn't change my nationality for nothing on the world. :D
@@anantprakashsingh8777 you're so encouraging. Thank you
Unlike me , i'm living in such a depressive and polluted area....
One crucial tip for everyone : when watching videos like this make sure to take a note while watching it. Otherwise you will forget it completely and lose that motivation you had after some hours. Taking short notes takes effort, that effort makes the brain save that memory.
It's true and really effective.
Thank me later.
Good advice
@@EJBTV 😊 thanks brother
Bout to do that rn, thx!
1) how many videos like this do you watch?
2) memory. use it.
@@point-bl4nk create notes while watching.
*Notes on how dopamine detox works
*What are the benefits
*What are the things to avoid and how positively it affects our life, etc.
Noting these down will make us never forget what we saw and learn. Simply watching videos makes us feel like we understood everything about it, but we forget it suddenly. In life without effort there is no result, so we make effort by writing and fixing it to the brain. So that memory will stay there. And you are more likely to follow what you have learned in it
This is the first RUclips video from you I have ever seen but its also the best RUclips video I've ever seen amazing point and editing thank you!
This video makes us realizse... we are litterally wasting the time of our lifes.
I started noticing i picked up my phone and... what? for what?
Thank you, now, I'm working on better life habits and I'm grateful to watch his video as a teen.
Sports without music. That’s how David goggins says it should be done. The hard way, just you vs your head
My one exception is lifting weights. For me personally, listening to heavy metal while lifting gets me in an angry rage-full mood that I use to lift heavier and serve as an healthy outlet for negative emotions.
@@DeltaHouseStudios not a lot of people understand this great point
@@DeltaHouseStudios Absolutely. Studies show you train harder with music so take advantage of it and have fun when you exercise!
I think there are two aspects to sport - mental and physical. Silence helps you train the mental aspect, improving your psychological conditioning. Music boosts your mental aspect so you can push past it, thus pushing your body to its limits, if your mental aspect is weaker. This improves your physiology more than if you trained in silence (but at the expense of extra mental conditioning).
He's living the vacation we always wanted.
Thank you for motivating me. I'm doing this experiment this week. I've not challenged myself for a long time and this is the chance.
Still watching this video even after 2 years since it was published. Really great work done and I enjoy watching it every single time. Thank you very much for it, Niklas 🙂
me too
No way his dopamine didn't spike while holding the dog.
My thoughts exactly.

When I spent 4 months in jail, where I didnt have access to anything other than books I felt so much sharper and my mind was so fast!
How brave of you to share your story. I'm really trying to cut my dopamine up starting tomorrow. Hopefully I'll catch up.

Hey Niklas, came across your videos recently. Just wanted to say I'm enjoying your content. Love personal development and so great to see your journey / experiments. Keep up great work and content.
Hey Man, Niklas this is one of greatest videos of our time. Mankind should thank you. I am.💕
DUDEEEE - these videos are so well produced. GREAT Job. You have a big fan here :)
Thanks so much Chris! Happy to hear that coming from you :)

Totally agree !
I think the fact that you made a video of your challenge is the reason why you were able to accomplish it in the first place
It's a lot harder when you know that you won't be rewarded with admirers after you complete it.
But still you completed it so it's fair I guess
@@user-de3vz5dp8o 😂 dude so what are you doing on social media 🤣
I didn't realise that this was the actual reason why I wasted my 2 years being distracted from goals and at the end not achieving goals caused dipression and anxiety . This are real issues we should focus on this 👍
wow, i experienced exactly the same thing
I am experiencing that exact situation right now.
@@nininghue same here, i am experiencing this right now & im only 19, hbu???
Even I have done the same and experienced depression and anxiety all because of bad habits developed during the lockdown
@@nininghue same dude
You are the one who motivated me to do a season-long dopamine detox that has changed my life. Thank You!
This is really inspring video ...i love your this vlog ... and this is the first video i listened patientley🤗 i'm really obsessed💜
The weird thing is that you used so many transitions and good color that gave us dopamine to convince us to stop with dopamine hahahahaha

Dude, you're living in a perfect environment.. It's just surreal.
True...
And also he's super rich
This is exactly how I'm going to get my life back on track
How was it?
So how is it now?
It's super helpful to find myself.
Thanks a million, Man.
It's my first time watching your video. Absolutely enjoyed every second of it.
as a 17 year old, i had hit a plateau in life where i always wondered about why i cant pursue my dream and my goals, how bad i overthink, how insecure i am and why i was single how didnt have any social skills. this video has definitely helped me and i hope this would lead me to great things. i'll share my progress in a month or so.
good luck :)
wish you the best!:)
Good luck :)
Good luck🙂
I'm also 17 with the same issues. Good luck!
Excellent explanation of dopamine and addiction. Thank you.
He just replaces some stimulus for others. Try making an ego detox and you'll see some change.
