Susun interviews Dr. Loretta Breuning after 90 minutes of herbal health questions.  Bio: Dr. Loretta Breuning, Happy-Chemical Pioneer and founder of The Inner Mammal Institute, wrote the first book on the animal origins of our happy brain chemicals: serotonin, dopamine, oxytocin, and endorphin. Her work has been translated into 16 different languages. In her latest book, she explains that unhappiness is not a disorder, but our brain's natural default state. Our happy chemicals are not designed to be on all the time, yet we're taught that happiness is "normal." This leaves a lot of people feeling like something is wrong with them. The disease model of mental health is so entrenched that we don't notice it the way a fish doesn't notice water. It's proclaimed as a service to the greater good, but it does more harm than good. So, why is this misleading view of our biology so popular? It's politics. Not the politics of government elections, but the politics of saying what's popular to win support.
