The pandemic upended all of our lives. As a response, we started different habits — and perhaps even formed addictions — that helped us to cope. But, after two years of pandemic living, is it possible to change? In this episode, we talk with Dr. Nii Addy, a researcher at Yale specializing in addiction, depression, and anxiety. And he says we can have hope — according to his research, it is possible to rewire our brains for greater mental health.

If you’re curious to hear more from Nii, check out his podcast, Addy Hour, wherever you listen to podcasts! One of his recent episodes on faith, spirituality, and psychiatry is available here.
