As I mentioned in the Introduction to Brain Chemistry Course we explored in Phase One, the fastest way to shrink your amygdala is by engaging in new experiences. We can do this by going to new places. This is why vacations always feel so good. Still, we don’t need to travel far to have new experiences taking a new way to and from work, traveling to areas near our home we haven’t visited before, or even going for a walk in a neighborhood that is foreign to us. If you have a little more time, geocaching is a great way to get the most out of this practice. You can search for ways to participate online.
Try the practice once before doing your meditations. Try exposing yourself to new places for at least twenty minutes, even if it’s a street near your home, try walking or driving somewhere you haven’t been. Notice the details around you. To increase the practice, contemplate your centering question.

Going forward with the week, try doing the practice before your meditations by simplifying the practice to a five or ten-minute walk, or a new way to and from places you go throughout the day.
After doing your practice of twenty minutes a day for a few days, what have you noticed? What is the most significant change you’ve noticed in your life? Enter your notes below.
If you’ve not noticed a change, try finding a place that’s more challenging for your brain to process. Try switching between nature and the city. What has a stronger effect on your brain chemistry? It’s not your failing if the first thing you try doesn’t work. It’s just a sign that the thing you’re doing is not challenging your brain enough. Keep trying new things until you find something that makes a significant difference in how you feel.
Good luck! and I look forward to connecting with you in the next video.
