Empowerment Solutions With Dr. Friedemann

Your Brain Is Wired for Negativity | ES224 | PART 1 of 2


Listen Later

Even when life is going well, do you catch yourself scanning for what’s not perfect? That little voice that fixates on the one thing that went wrong the email you didn’t get, the offhand comment, the 10% of your day that wasn’t ideal? That’s not just a mood, it’s a habit. A deeply wired one.

In this episode, I explore why negativity is so persistent, even when we consciously want to feel better. From ancient survival instincts to emotional conditioning, I break down the root cause of our negative bias and why your brain might still be scanning the bushes for tigers even in the middle of a peaceful day.

Because happiness isn't just something you find it's something you practice. And breaking free from negativity starts by understanding it.

Dr Friedemann's Takeaways:

  • Negativity as a Bad Habit (00:00)
  • Impact of Negativity on Perception (01:28)
  • Evolutionary Origins of Negativity (02:31)
  • The Role of Negativity in Survival (03:16)
