Dopamine is a type of neurotransmitter that is released in our body whenever there is a sense of pleasure. When we do any activity that gives us mental happiness it is due to the release of chemical dopamine. It is basically synthesized in the brain and can be artificially induced by the use of certain drugs.

It is also known as a happy hormone and can be absent when we are going through phases of depression or stress in our lives. Exercising regularly, eating healthy, doing some yoga, decreasing stress can also help trigger the release of dopamine.
