Pleasure and Contentment
A lively discussion contrasts fleeting pleasure with steady contentment and how brain chemistry favors one over the other. Neuroscience, addiction, and how modern marketing amplifies craving are explored. Buddhist practice, meditation, and real recovery stories are presented as routes to lasting contentment.
