The Science of Habits | Why You Do What You Do | Sleep Smart

Tonight, settle in and discover why nearly half of everything you do each day isn't a decision at all, it's a habit running on autopilot. From William James's foundational insight that habits are the brain's operating system to the extraordinary case of a man who couldn't form new memories but could still learn new routes, this episode traces the science of how habits form, why they persist, and what it actually takes to change them. You'll learn about the habit loop, why dopamine is an anticipation chemical rather than a pleasure chemical, and why the most effective approach isn't willpower but working with your brain's own machinery. One hour of gentle narration followed by seven hours of ambient music designed for overnight listening. Learn something fascinating as you fall asleep, and let your brain do the rest. Part of the Being & Becoming Sleep Smart series.
