Addiction, Relationships, and Motivation: A Student's Guide with Dr. Christian Heim

Happiness equals long-term contentment and short-term pleasure. But if your long-term relationship is breaking up because of it, then your long-term contentment is suffering and it's actually not worth it.
Imagine being a student in the middle of a pandemic, juggling online classes, isolation, and the temptation of addictive behaviors. In this episode of The Dr. Christian Heim Podcast, Dr. Christian Heim and Senior Lecturer Dr. Caroline Heim tackle these very issues in a webinar hosted by Queensland University of Technology. They respond to real questions from students about how to cope with isolation, manage relationships, and stay motivated during such a challenging time. Dr.
Heim delves into the idea that while short-term pleasures can be enticing, they often lead to long-term struggles with addiction and dissatisfaction. Instead, he encourages listeners to seek lasting contentment by aligning their actions with their core values. The episode wraps up with a practical Q&A session where both experts offer actionable tips for managing anxiety, especially performance anxiety. This conversation is packed with insights to help students navigate their mental health during these unprecedented times.
