    The Dark Side of Productivity and Why It's Dangerous | Oliver Burkeman

    My guest for today is Oliver Burkeman, author of Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals and Meditations for Mortals. We look into the paradox of productivity, exploring why our relentless pursuit of doing more doesn't necessarily lead to a happier or more fulfilling life. Oliver shares insights on how letting go of the impossible quest to "get it all done" can open the door to genuine fulfilment and peace of mind.  By embracing self-compassion and seeing imperfection as a strength, we uncover how personally redefining success can transform our approach to life. Oliver offers practical strategies to help us shift our focus from constant busyness to making more meaningful choices with our finite time.  Oliver Burkeman’s Website: https://www.oliverburkeman.com/  Books: https://www.oliverburkeman.com/meditationsformortals https://www.oliverburkeman.com/fourthousandweeks *** Thank you to my wonderful sponsors!  EXHALE COFFEE | Ridiculously healthy coffee works well for me.  https://exhalecoffee.com/pages/sarah Use code FREETRIALSARAH for your free trial.

    Lisa Feldman Barrett: How to Master Your Emotions | Be Well Moments

    In this clip, my guest is Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett, a renowned neuroscientist and psychologist specializing in the science of emotion. We delve into the fascinating concept of the brain's "body budget"—how our brains predict and regulate the needs of our bodies through a process called allostasis. Lisa explains how disruptions in this body budgeting system can manifest as depression and anxiety, essentially viewing depression as a "bankrupt" body budget. We discuss the profound connection between our physical state and our emotions, and how changing the meanings we assign to our physical sensations can transform anxiety into determination. This episode offers actionable insights to help you retrain your brain, manage your emotions, and foster a healthier mind-body relationship.
