1. Who are you? | Anastazja Adamczyk (former Healthy Habits)

December 05, 2023 Season 1 Episode 1

(Former Healthy Habits Podcast)
I invite you to reflect upon who you are and what makes you, you. In describing how our memory impacts our sense of self, I bring up the works of scientists from the domains of neuroscience and psychology, which shed light on the understanding on how we create the beliefs we have about ourselves and, most importantly, how we can change them.

-> What Is a Self-Concept?
-> How Does Memory Shape Our Sense of Self?
-> Are We All Guilty of Crafting Our Past?
-> What's Behind Our Brains 'Cherry-Picking' Memories?
-> Did He Really Mean What He Did? Mistakes and Automatic Behaviours.

CHALLENGE #1:
- Why am I here?
- What can I bring to the world?
- When am I the happiest?
