Summary

CAUTION: Includes themes of an adult nature.

Do you think you have an addiction, or perhaps an unhealthy relationship with a certain behaviour?

Feel Better Live More Bitesize is my weekly podcast for your mind, body, and heart. Each week I’ll be featuring inspirational stories and practical tips from some of my former guests.

Today’s clip is from episode 222 of the podcast with Dr Anna Lembke, a professor of psychiatry at Stanford University School of Medicine and author of the book Dopamine Nation: Finding Balance In the Age Of Indulgence.

In this clip, Anna explains why we’re living in a world that’s turned us all into addicts and shares some practical tips to help us find the right balance.
