With this knowledge that it takes a lot of effort to get that first connection going and then it takes less and less effort but a lot of repetitions to keep it going, then we can kind of learn how we can hack this to create some change in our life.
Change is hard. We all know that feeling of starting the New Year with big plans, only to find ourselves slipping back into old habits by February. But why does this happen? In this episode of 'Building Thriving Lifestyles', Oddrun Eik Gylfadottir dives into the science of change and how our brains can be trained to embrace it. Using insights from neuroscience, Oddrun explains how our brains form new connections through repetition.
She likens it to learning to play the piano: the first few notes are tough, but with practice, it gets easier and more automatic. Oddrun emphasizes self-compassion during this journey. It's crucial not to beat yourself up for every slip-up. Interestingly, she highlights that our brains don't distinguish much between thinking about change and actually doing it, making repetition key to lasting transformation.
If you're looking to make positive changes in your life, this episode offers practical advice and a compassionate approach to help you get there. So, grab a pen, jot down the key takeaways, and start your journey toward lasting change.
