EC 107: The Opposite of Addiction


Listen Later

The opposite of addiction is not what you think – unless you happen to have seen Johan Hari’s TED talk Everything You Think You Know About Addiction Is Wrong.

 

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

What on earth is Groucho Marx doing in Eating Coach HQ???

 

MAIN SECTION

In this episode, I talk about some key points from this talk. You don’t need to have watched it to understand.

Find out:

  • Why grandmothers aren’t heroin addicts (it’s not Victorian morality!)
  • How our innate need to bond can indirectly lead to addiction under specific circumstances
  • The role of shame in all this
