Motivation and reward mechanisms in health behavior change processes

This resource focuses specifically on the motivation and reward system that takes place chemically within the brain. The motivation and reward system might be invisible to the human eye but has a significant effect on behaviors, feelings, and internal emotions. The article goes into depth on how the brain motivates people to build habits with the reward system and how future interventions can be used to change one’s lifestyle.
