Learn to develop better coping mechanisms.

In this episode I talk about "negative" or maladaptive coping mechanisms - what they are, why they develop, and why they work. Then, learn how to replace these negative coping mechanisms with healthier, more effective coping, including how to use movement and somatics to improve your brain chemistry and mood.

Notes: For more on somatics, see the work of Bessel van der Kolk and Peter Levine (who has a new book out). On habits, see the work of James Clear.
