  • I was not expecting this episode to hit the way it did. I've started and quit so many healthy habits over the years and honestly just assumed I was lazy. But hearing Dr. Jones talk about long term potentiation and how brain cells literally need to physically change their structure over months of repetition before a habit sticks, that completely changed how I see myself. It's not laziness, it's just biology, and nobody ever tells about that.Sweat smile

    The escalator thing made me laugh because I do exactly that. I stand on the right every single time without even thinking about it. It's such a small thing but it really gets you thinking about how many little automated choices are quietly shaping your health without you even noticing.

    I also really appreciated the honesty around the wellness industry. The point about creators needing to constantly feed an algorithm and ending up contradicting themselves makes so much sense. I've felt confused and guilty for years trying to keep up with all the advice and it was just really refreshing to hear someone call that out.

    If I could ask for anything in a future episode, it would be to go a bit deeper on some of the science. For example, does long term potentiation happen faster for some habits than others? And I would have loved to hear more about how sleep connects to habit formation specifically, because Dr. Jones mentioned it as the top priority but it felt a little separate from the neuroscience conversation earlier. Tying those two things together would be really interesting.Relieved

    You would likely end up with very long podcasts if you did !  Slight smile

    Perhaps including some links to 'further reading' on the topics being discussed, may be helpful though.
