Food. We all love it and sometimes hate it at the same time. Food gives us pleasure, pretext to bond with people we care about and all the nutrients we need to have energy and be healthy. On the other hand, in a busy world it is unbelievably hard not to eat too much or the wrong stuff.

What can we do to improve our health in a tasty way? How can we find time to prepare healthy meals? What kind of question can help us to avoid eating sweet or salty snacks too often?

In this episode I will try to answer all of these questions and even more.

“I see and praise what is better, but follow what is worse.” With these words Roman poet Ovid 2 000 years ago named a struggle that we still all feel in the 21. century. We know what is best for our health, but sometimes a chocolate bar or a bag of chips is just irresistible. We are convinced that exercising is essential, but after a hard day at work or at home with children it is so much easier to lay on the couch and watch TV shows instead. We experienced many times that nothing good will happen after visiting Facebook during our work, but we just can’t stop ourselves. Or can we? Is there a way to ignore our urges, be consistent with our values and priorities? Can habits help us with this struggle?

In this episode I will try to answer all of these questions and even more.

Let’s talk about the habit of expressing love!

Most of us, as human beings, seek pleasure and comfort. We tend to take the line of least resistance and do what is easy and convenient. We fear pain (for example connected with the dentist appointment) and we will go to extremes to avoid it, if possible.

In this episode I will try to convince you that discomfort not only isn’t as bad as we portray it, but getting used to it can help you solve many of your biggest problems.

Let’s talk about the habit of voluntary suffering!

Hi! My name is Andrzej and welcome to The Helpful Habits. In this podcast, we will learn how to employ good habits that will do the hard work for us. How to change our lives for the better not by taking massive leaps, but with the help of small, easy-to-implement steps.

In this episode, you will learn what is a habit, what is the proven formula to develop a great habit in your life, and what I consider to be the greatest habit of all.

Let’s talk about the habit of learning.

Hi! My name is Andrzej Bernardyn and welcome to The Helpful Habits. I am a business trainer, expert in developing habits, and the author of a board game The Land of Habits.

In this podcast I will show you how good routines can transform any aspect of your life - your health, finances, relationships, work, and business.

To achieve this you don’t need to meditate in the Himalayas for a couple of years or become a cult member. Instead of massive leaps, we will use small steps. Seemingly insignificant shifts that in time lead to spectacular results. Like a tiny snowball that can cause an avalanche… but of positive changes.

In The Helpful Habits I will talk about matters that are both important and practical in a listener-friendly way. Instead of scientific gibberish or philosophical jargon I will use a simple, easy-to-understand language with a lot of stories from my life, analogies, and metaphors.

In each episode I will present at least 1 helpful habit. You will learn why it is essential and how this habit can improve the quality of your life. What’s more, you will learn how to step-by-step make it a part of you that is your second, better nature.

From time to time I will invite special guests and trick them to confess which habits greatly contributed to their success. Because of that you will use their experience and avoid painful mistakes.

You can listen to The Helpful Habits on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and all the good podcasting apps.

May the power of good habits be with you and till next time.
