The Psychology Podcast S01E01 - AddictionsAddictions have changed over centuries, and they will continue to change in the following centuries. Whether behavioural or substance use, there is a complex interplay of internal and external factors in every addiction. The episode equips the listener with various techniques to manage their addiction. Even if you aren’t sure about quitting, reducing the addiction or the damage, this episode will help you in every contemplation stage. The listener will understand how addictions are closely related to emotions, and involve a cyclic behaviour, that you can stop. From avoiding pain to seeking pleasure, every addictive action serves a purpose, only to make things worse in the long run. Some hands-on techniques are discussed to help you take a different action. Finally, the episode deals with preventing and managing a relapse. If used well, the episode is a powerful adjunct to formal treatment by an addiction specialist, psychiatrist or a de-addiction counsellor.

The Psychology Podcast S01E02 - AngerDo you remember the last time you had intense anger? Although expressing anger got you certain benefits, there were costs to it. What if you had expressed in a controlled way? Is it healthy to express and get done with anger, or to hold it and suppress it? Most of us have a ‘to be or not to be’ relationship with Anger, which keeps us on a pendulum. Not knowing that there is a healthier version of Anger stops many from reacting differently. Unhealthy anger has short term and long term costs, and many of them are irreversible. Unhealthy anger also leads to a chain reaction in the other person, keeping both perpetually angry. Unhealthy anger can destroy relationships, lead to arguments, violence and even wars. Master your own Anger, without trying to eliminate it. Convey your view, opinion and wishes assertively with healthy Anger, without damaging the relationships, and your peace of mind. The episode explores the origins of anger, the difference between healthy and unhealthy anger, how to switch to the healthier version.
