the challenge of social media and smartphone addiction
recognizing addiction to news during the COVID-19 crisis
the phenomenon of “social contagion” in relation to the current pandemic and social media
the nature of primitive limbic fear versus the higher reasoning of the prefrontal cortex (elephant and rider)
what happens when worry becomes a habit
the relationship of worry to anxiety
how we can hack our brain with the BBO (Bigger Better Offer) approach with regards to habit and addiction
insights around panic disorder
the nature and utility of changing “reward value”
bringing “curious awareness” online to recognize cravings and their low reward value
addiction and it's relationship to dopamine
the nature of selfless flow states
fMRI data on adept meditators and the quieting of the “default mode network”
psychedelics and the effect on default mode network
the effectiveness of an app-based mindfulness approach on physician anxiety and physician burnout in a recent set of studies
