    28. Belonging

    In this episode, Nash and our special guest, Bonny Astor, discuss what can give us a sense of belonging, the pros and cons of groups, what groups require to last, and how to maximise your chances of being accepted when joining a new group.  Bonny and Nash  draw extensively from their experience of running Meetup groups,  Thought Experiments in Pubs and Pub Psychology (also mostly in London pubs!), respectively. If you join these groups, you can meet them in person! personalsynthesis.com

    27. Interest and boredom

    This podcast can help you be more in charge of interest and boredom. Generally, there are two reasons why we get bored: because nothing is happening and because of what is happening and they require different approaches. We will address both. Also, we sometimes may not be interested enough in things that we want to be, so we will talk about how to get there too.   personalsynthesis.com

    Do you consider yourself an open or closed person? Are you in charge of opening and closing to new experiences or information, or sometimes you find yourself too open or too closed? Would you like to change anything in this respect? In this episode, we discuss what openness is, when and to what extent; we also share with our listeners tips on how to regulate the ability to open up as well as close down.  You can be more in charge of it! personalsynthesis.com

    Resilience is a hot topic - we seem to get less and less resilient with detrimental consequences for our well-being and mental health. In this episode, we first discuss factors that reduce resilience and then suggest what we can do to increase it. Three steps of resilience (think, choose, accept and move on), as well as how to deal with iceberg situations, are also addressed. personalsynthesis.com
