We had a great time interviewing our friend and colleague Dr. Amy Johnson about the nature of thought and how it impacts our relationships. As Amy points out, we're all in relationship with our thinking about other people and our thinking about ourselves. We can't be in direct relationship with anyone without experiencing them through thought.Amy shares how seeing the role of thought in her life, helped her relax around some of the "problems" she imagined would eventually derail her relationship. Once she saw how she was making it up, she was able to be present and enjoy her husband just as he is. One of the reasons it's so powerful talking to Amy is her ability to seamlessly draw from her knowledge about biology and neuroscience. It's our biology to have preferences, and for the mind to work the way it does -- calculating and assessing -- but realizing there is an invisible force at play that is far more powerful than our brain, helps us to shift our identification from our intellect to the intelligent, formless energy behind life. We conclude the interview with a set of personal questions about Amy's own relationship, and we were really touched by her responses. Amy's work centers around helping people who struggle with habits and anxiety as she struggled with this herself for many years. We cannot recommend Amy's work enough, and we outline some of her offerings below in the show notes. This episode explores:We are a spiritual being having human experiencesOur brains find evidence for whatever we expectThis understanding is not about transcending the human experienceThe content of conditioning varies, but the same understanding can create a shift for anyoneWe have a greater perspective when the situation isn't about us -- sticky thinking is sticky because we've personalized it.

Most of us struggle with some kind of habit we’d like to break. Whether it’s overindulging in food or alcohol, spending endless hours online, compulsively shopping, or being consumed by self-doubt, our minds can trap us into habitual thinking and behaviors that lead us away from the life we want. But the truth is, you are not your habit or addiction—and you already possess the power to end it for good. With The Little Book of Big Change, you’ll discover what’s behind your habit or addiction and be able to stop it at its source. Drawing on a powerful combination of neuroscience and spirituality, you’ll learn that thought is at the root of all habits, so understanding the way you think can help rewire your brain and put an end to unhealthy behavior patterns. So, if you’re ready to say good-bye to bad habits and embrace real change, this book is for you.

  If somebody asked you how to change habits, you'd probably tell that person that he or she had better have strong willpower. That's because habits are usually associated with willpower, whether you want to ditch a bad one or develop good ones. This is why ditching or acquiring habits is harder than it needs to be. This episode, I have Dr. Amy Johnson, psychologist and author of Little Book of Big Change: The No-Willpower Approach to Breaking Any Habit. Yes, she's here to show us how to change habits without having anything to do with willpower! Change is all about having the right perspective on habits. Here are the some of the main points we discussed during this episode: First off, Dr. Amy defines habit as recurrent way of thinking that we take seriously. Behind every single habit is a thought that shows up in our head that we take as true. In other words, a habit is what we do based on what we are thinking and believing at the moment. The thought processes that influence our habits include those that are at the subconscious level. In fact, we're not aware of some thoughts until we notice how we're feeling or what we're doing. The brain is plastic and malleable. Through our behavior and our thinking that we take seriously, we get our brains habituated to things. The reverse is also true. When we choose not to act on certain thoughts, our brains go the other way. Thoughts show up; we don't make them happen. They are a stream of energy going through us. We shouldn't be judged or blamed for them. We are not bad people for having habits. Most of our habits stem from our attempts at making ourselves feel better. You are in a position of power when watch your thoughts from an observer's standpoint. You realize that thoughts just come and go. You can choose whether or not to act on them -- that's how you change habits. See urges as any other thought. You don't have to act to make it go away. It will just pass. We can have power over our habits. It's less about discipline and self-control and more about having a deep understanding of how the mind works. I hope that this episode on how to change habits has helped you gain some valuable insights that will empower you to master your habits so that you can change your life for the better. Last week's episode was all about self-sabotage. In this coaching session, I share three simple steps on how to stop sabotaging yourself permanently.
