The Science of Self Help
Manage episode 288894443 series 2904105
#001 - According to research on the topic, about 60% of us admit that we make New Year's resolutions but only about 8% of us are successful in completing them. In the first episode of Critical Mind, Embodied Spirit, Biju Sukumaran, author of the Science of Self Help https://scienceofselfhelp.org/, discusses why we might be failing and how to take a practical, scientific, and systems-based approach to habit formation as a way to permanent self-improvement that doesn't just rely on the brute force of willpower. Biju talks about a decade of recording the data from the first-person science of implementing (almost) every self-help technique under the sun and how he surveyed the epic self-help landscape to put it all in one place and devise The Elements of Change: A Grand Unified Theory of Self-Help.
