  • Summary

  • Can techniques like CBT and hypnotism help us change our behavior? Ash starts the episode by hypnotising Alice. He trained in hypnosis when he was practicing as a medical doctor. This episode is all about tricking the brain to overcome your issues with willpower. Ash explains how often the big issue with behaviour change is just getting started. We all know what we want to change about ourselves but there is often a barrier to that change. Alice feels like she has a barrier when it comes to writing more often. Hypnosis helps us reframe that barrier.

    Alice then explains that actually sometimes we aren’t aware of the things we want to change. She tells the story of Roy Smalls, an ex-offender in South Carolina, who is trying to change his habitual behaviours through a technique called cognitive behavioral therapy. CBT helps people reframe their thoughts in order to help them change. If CBT can work for someone like Roy it is likely a really useful way to start changing our behaviour.
