On this episode of Being Well, Forrest and I open up the mailbag to explore a variety of questions from our listeners. We talk about what causes our brains to become attached to unwanted habits, changing old patterns, how to know which of your thoughts are worth listening to, and the pros and cons of Forrest’s tendency to say “kind of” so often.
We then consider how to improve sibling relationships, and what to do with positive emotions we experience during meditation.
