Listen Later

Welcome to episode nr 2 of The Coffee Journeys Show: Is routine good for you? Exploring the Power and Limits of Routine.

In this episode, Piotr explores the topic of routines and whether they are good or bad. He shares some true stories to illustrate the power of routine and how our brain operates.

Piotr introduces a synthetically generated voice assistant named Droidella McElectron, who explains the different parts of the human brain, including:

  • The limbic system: responsible for regulating our emotions and memories
  • The prefrontal cortex: responsible for higher-level thinking, such as decision-making, problem-solving, and planning
  • The basal ganglia: involved in the control of movement and coordination.

    • Piotr concludes that it is important to be aware of this system and develop habits and routines that will serve you because our brain is trying to help us by simplifying, categorizing, and automating as much as possible.
