Pt 2: Healthy Ways to Get a Dopamine Hit with Chris Boardman

In part 2, Chris and Alex get psychological as they talk about human nature and our natural bias for choosing the easiest option.


Chris shares his thoughts on the importance of language when trying to get people to be more active, constructive ways to get the dopamine hits we all crave and how to get more cyclists on our roads safely.


Chris also talks through the elaborate stages of The Tour de France (which were surely thought up in a pub!), forming temporary race alliances and where cyclists wee on an 8-hour race!

For children, you can pick up Dr Alex’s new handbook, ‘A Better Day: Your Positive Mental Health Handbook
