Because life is complicated enough and information is everywhere Small Steps is aimed at providing life relevant information in digestible episodes of only a few minutes at a time. Each episode also includes an experiment that can be tried out quickly, and replicated in most environments. I'm not trying to provide definitive answers, but want to stimulate listeners to explore multiple alternatives that resonate in their own search for understanding and purpose in life. Small Steps takes inspiration from my own experiences as a human experimenting with and exploring life, but also draws on my professional life as a walking therapist in the Netherlands and my readings into a variety of perspectives from eastern philosophy, stoicism and modern day perspectives regarding what it may mean to lead a fulfilling and human centered existence.

    Cognitive Fatigue - The Efficiency Trap

    Send me your Feedback or Suggestions! We have the tools available to us now-a-days that can help reduce the amount of time we spend on many activities, and while this is generally a good thing it may create an unrealistic perception that we can get an increasing amount of activities done per day.  We need to stop comparing our brains to computer processors and start using the time we create for ourselves to reduce cognitive fatigue instead. This episode provides an alternative perspective you can start exploring today. Click for the episode: 'Cognitive Fatigue - Context Switching'

    Cognitive Fatigue - Context Switching

    Send me your Feedback or Suggestions! This is the start of a series of episodes that dive deeper into potential factors that can contribute towards the experience of cognitive fatigue, which at best can leave us experiencing occasional brain fog or mental tiredness and at worse could be a large contributor to burnout.  Today's episode focuses on the role that context switching can play and how that can appear in your day to day life. An exercise that can be used to increase focus and reduce context switching for a few minutes is the exercise of "Engaging the Senses" and can be listened to by clicking the link below; https://www.buzzsprout.com/2569749/episodes/18879080
