This October, we're celebrating 8 years of Behavioral Grooves! To mark the occasion, we're digging into our archives and re-sharing some of our most popular and thought-provoking conversations every Thursday for the next two months. The celebration builds to our Anniversary Event on October 16th in Minneapolis, where fan favorite Nick Epley will lead the audience in a live social experiment and conversation about the science we all love. Space is limited—grab your tickets now through the link in the show notes and join us for an unforgettable night of behavioral science, connection, and fun! Now, onto the episode! In this episode of Behavioral Grooves, we sit down with behavioral economics pioneer George Loewenstein, whose groundbreaking research has shaped our understanding of decision-making, risk, incentives, emotions, and so much more. Though not a household name, George is a legend in the field—so much so that Richard Thaler dedicated his book Misbehaving to him. Our conversation explores his latest work on boredom, a surprisingly understudied emotion, and what it reveals about attention, productivity, and even workplace meetings. Along the way, we touch on curiosity, music, and why boredom itself may hold the key to unlocking deeper flow and focus. Links Behavioral Grooves LIVE in Minneapolis! About George

Get as much done ahead of time .Requesting shoes off without offering alternatives - It's fine to ask guests to take their shoes off, but don't leave them barefoot, which can make them feel awkward. Follow Martha Stewart's lead and have a basket of washable slippers or cozy socks .Forgetting the farewell - People don't always know when it's time to go, so you can announce a “last call” or try Martha's method. To kick guests out, she explains, “I just say, ‘I'm going to bed, I'll see you.'”Are You Burnt Out Or Just Bored?Burnout's typically associated with feelings of overwhelmingness and exhaustion.

The Dark Ages: Rome has fallen, the Church won't shut the fuck up, there's a killer plague for every season, and everyone else is dying of BOREDOM.Right? WRONG.Western Europe may have been a shitshow for much of what we ridiculously call the "Dark Ages," but the rest of the world had its act together.Specifically: Baghdad around the 800s AD. At the height of the Golden Age of Islam. They had libraries, they had mathematics, and...they had lesbian sex scientists.This week we're taking a tantalizing dip into the Golden Age of Islam to uncover a treasure trove archive of lesbionic women from medieval Arabia.Muslim philosophers and physicians had actual words for lesbians (or lesbian-like women), entire books about famous lesbian couples, and specific manuals that explained how to vigorously rub one out with your beloved.From labia gas to celery-and-rocket shakes, the science was...shaky, at best. But the spirit of inquiry was strong, and the genuine respect for lesbian love profound.Tune in to explore:Why doctors thought the only sensible treatment for lesbianism was – get this! – lesbian sexA 13th-century Kama Sutra-style manual that coined the “saffron massage” (and came with a guide to lesbian sound effects)The interfaith power couple Hind Bint al-Nu'man and al-Zarqāʾ, whose legendary love story inspired queer and heterosexual writers for centuries to comeThe lost books of lesbian couples with names like Basil and Clove and Justice and Happiness (welcome, ladies, to the queer Muslim SPICE RACK)How medieval lesbian communities were rumoured to hold meetings and sex ed classes, because like all good homosexuals, they got organized.

From simple daily habits to parenting with purpose, Jennifer offers no-nonsense strategies for building strength - mentally, emotionally, and physically.

Jogen emphasizes the unique value of sustained practice in bringing clarity of mind, calming the nervous system, and reshaping our habitual patterns.

PirsigChapters0:26 Introduction to Boredom1:43 Hidden Benefits of Boredom4:04 Practicing Intentional Boredom7:30 Mini Pause Practice11:09 Affirmations for Stillness15:25 Boredom as Space, Not Danger17:22 Filling the Silence18:27 Invitation to Share Your ExperienceSummaryIn this episode of the Anxiety Coaches Podcast, I delve into part two of our exploration on boredom as an unexpected ally for our nervous system. Today, we expand on our previous discussion where we unpacked the significance of boredom in our hyper-stimulated environment. We clarified boredom as a state of mental unrest, distinct from feelings of depression and apathy, and why it triggers discomfort, particularly for those of us grappling with anxiety. Rather than being an adversary, I emphasize that boredom serves as a natural pause, a crucial moment for self-reflection and healing.As we shift our lens on boredom, I highlight its hidden benefits, which include the chance for our nervous systems to reset and the creation of space for self-exploration, creativity, and problem-solving—elements often overshadowed by constant engagement. Embracing boredom, I argue, can catalyze profound changes in our anxiety levels and overall wellness. The challenge, however, lies in how we can actively integrate periods of stillness and unstructured time into our lives.I offer practical strategies for practicing boredom, particularly for those who are apprehensive about it. Starting small, I suggest letting your mind wander without the pressure to be productive—the freedom of taking a leisurely, phone-free walk or simply allowing your thoughts to drift. I encourage listeners to engage in intentional moments of boredom, like setting aside five to ten minutes of doing nothing. It might feel uncomfortable initially, as a response to years of overstimulation, but this is part of the unlearning process.#AnxietyRelief #BoredomBenefits #NervousSystemRegulation #FindYourCalm #StillnessSpeaks #SelfCareJourney #MentalWellness #MindfulLiving #CreativeFlow #StressLess #OverstimulationSolution #RelaxAndRecharge #InnerPeaceNow #WellnessJourney #HealYourself #BePresent #DigitalWellbeing #EmotionalBalance #ConnectWithin #JustBe #UnwindYourMind #RestorativePractice #ThoughtfulLiving #AnxietySupport #DailyCalm #BreatheDeep #QuietMoments #EmbraceStillness #BeyondBoredom #AnxietyCoach #PodcastWisdom #GinaRyan #AnxietyCoachesPodcast #AnxietyAwareness #SelfHelp #MindBodySoul #HealthyHabits #StressReduction #CalmMind #EmotionalFreedom #PeacefulLiving #BoredomIsGood #UnlockCreativity #StayGrounded #NoMoreOverwhelm #AnxietyCoping #WellbeingTips #RestIsBest #MindfulMoments #PositiveAffirmations #ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We're wired to chase the next spark - scrolling, swiping, refreshing - but some of our brightest ideas sneak in when we stop chasing, let boredom settle in and give our minds room to wander.Elle Cordova knows the power of that pause. When the pandemic hit pause on her life as a touring musician, she stumbled into new creative territory - making offbeat comedy videos about delightfully nerdy topics like particle physics, grammar, and fonts. Those sketches went viral, and suddenly she was thriving as a social media creator with a devoted following. In this episode, we talk about finding what truly lights you up, pushing through writer's block, working with anxiety - and yes, Star Wars makes an appearance (because of course it does). Plus, Elle treats us to a live, in-studio performance of her song Roswell.This…is A Bit of Optimism.For more on Elle, check out:ellecordova.com/

In this episode, Lisa gets real about the challenges we face on the road to better health. From recognizing and overcoming burnout, to finding ways to keep moving forward despite health issues, to reigniting your spark when boredom sets in. She shares practical tips and the encouragement you need to stay in the game.

What if you were convinced you got a good night's sleep even if you didn't? It turns out what you believe can actually determine if you do or don't feel tired the next day. How can this possibly be true? This episode starts with an explanation which could be very useful one day when you didn't sleep well. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24417326/ Many times in your life you have felt totally bored. What exactly is boredom? Is it a feeling or maybe it is a lack of a feeling? Does feeling bored ever serve a purpose? Then there is that phrase, “I'm bored to death.” Can that actually happen – death by boredom? Here for a fascinating discussion on the topic of boredom is psychologist James Danckert, author of the book, Out of My Skull: The Psychology of Boredom (https://amzn.to/3ePmnsq). On one end of the scale are thrill seekers and daredevils who jump out of airplanes or climb dangerous mountains. On the other end of the scale are people who would rather stay home and read a book by the fire. What is the difference? What cause thrill seekers to do what they do? What is it they gain from those experiences? That is what Ken Carter is here to reveal. Ken is a board-certified clinical psychologist and professor of psychology at Oxford College of Emory University and author of the book Buzz!: Inside the Minds of Thrill-Seekers, Daredevils, and Adrenaline Junkies (https://amzn.to/35FIwCn) One day your car's check engine light will come on. It's a pretty vague warning that doesn't tell you much. What could it be? Sometimes it's nothing. In fact, often it is nothing. Listen as I reveal one of the most likely reasons it comes on and the simple fix. Source: Phil Edmonston author of The Lemon-Aid Car Guide (https://amzn.to/33wtJaC) Learn more about your ad choices.

Many of us, especially those who experience anxiety, tend to view boredom as a negative state—something to be avoided at all costs. However, I challenge this perspective and invite you to explore the hidden benefits of boredom. It can actually serve as a pathway to mental clarity and tranquility, helping to restore our natural peace.I begin by discussing the common aversion to stillness and unstructured time that many anxious individuals face. In a world saturated with constant stimulation, the very idea of being bored can trigger discomfort. This discomfort often leads us to fill our time with distractions—social media, snacking, or busy tasks—in a bid to escape that empty space. Yet, I argue that this avoidance keeps our nervous systems in a perpetual state of low-level stress and robs us of essential moments for healing and reflection.In this episode, I redefine boredom as a signal rather than a problem. It indicates that our brain is seeking something to engage with. It's not inherently bad; instead, it can provide a needed pause for mental rest. I outline how this state of mental restlessness differs fundamentally from feelings of depression and apathy, which can mislead individuals into fearing they are fundamentally unwell when they're merely experiencing a temporary state of boredom. Recognizing boredom as a safe and natural experience invites us to engage with it more gently and curiously, rather than as something to escape or dread.#DeepRest#MindfulnessMoment#AnxietySolution#BoredomIsGood#InnerPeaceJourney#DigitalWellbeing#QuietRevolution#ConsciousLiving#VagusNerveHealing#EmotionalFreedom#CreativeFlow#ProblemSolvingPower#SelfAwarenessBoost#StressDetox#MindfulPause#UnplugAndRecharge#StillnessPractice#BrainBreak#HolisticWellness#LifeBalanceTips#MentalClarity#InnerGuidanceSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this introspective episode of Shark Theory, Baylor Barbee unpacks an overlooked emotion: boredom. Flashing back to the early COVID days of spinning in an office chair and playing ping pong alone, Baylor explores why boredom makes us uncomfortable—and how learning to sit still can unlock self-awareness, clarity, and power. He challenges the hustle-obsessed mindset, sharing insights from Buddhist philosophy, military preparation, and his own practices to help listeners turn silence into strategy. If you've been feeling “off,” unmotivated, or anxious about not doing enough—this episode is your permission to be still and your playbook to grow in it. Key Takeaways: Stillness Reveals the Truth: We avoid boredom because it forces us to face ourselves—but that's exactly where growth begins. Boredom Is a Privilege: If you have time to be bored, you're already ahead. Use that margin to your advantage. Sit Without a Purpose: Practice sitting still not to plan, fix, or produce—but simply to be. That's where clarity emerges. Prepare in the Quiet: Like the military develops planes long before battle, use your downtime to sharpen your skills and expand your arsenal. New Battles Will Come: Don't waste the rare calm. Use it to prepare for your next level, not to coast in comfort. Notable Quotes: “When you're bored, you're not behind—you're privileged.” “The biggest battle you'll ever fight is the one with the person in the mirror.” “Sit still long enough, and you'll realize clarity always finds a way in.” “This calm season is your chance to get combat-ready for what's next.” “Don't waste your boredom. Weaponize it.”
