Mike Carruthers: 本期节目探讨了当今世界安全和自我改变两个主题。首先,安全专家Spencer Corson分享了关于个人安全和家庭安全的实用建议,强调了警惕性和风险评估的重要性,以及在紧急情况下制定应急计划的重要性。他还强调了过度自信是最大的安全隐患,人们应该在日常生活中保持警惕,但不必过度焦虑。 其次,神经科学家Nicole Vignola讨论了改变不良习惯和思维模式的方法。她指出,许多不良习惯源于童年时期的潜移默化,可以通过意识到并重复新的行为模式来改变。她还强调了积极思维模式的重要性,以及通过想象来创建新的神经通路,从而实现自我提升。 Spencer Corson: 当今世界虽然比以往任何时候都安全,但人们对安全的焦虑却在增加。媒体对暴力事件的广泛报道加剧了这种焦虑,但实际风险可能被夸大了。人们普遍缺乏对个人安全的准备,除了基本的防范措施外,很少采取其他行动。大多数住宅入侵是由于门锁未锁造成的,因此锁门是重要的安全措施。罪犯通常会选择容易下手的目标,因此了解自己房屋的薄弱之处,有助于提升家居安全。制定应对入侵事件的计划,包括逃生路线和家庭成员集合计划,至关重要。人们不应该仅仅依靠紧急救援人员,而应该积极参与自身保护。过度自信是最大的安全威胁,大多数人在危险情况下会惊慌失措,提前做好心理准备,能够在危险情况下做出更有效的反应。在感觉危险来临之前就应该采取行动,而不是等到危险发生后再后悔。经常变换回家路线,有助于提高警惕性,降低被跟踪的风险。危险信号总是存在,但人们往往因为缺乏警惕而忽略它们。舒适感有时是最危险的因素,人们往往忽略自己注意不到的危险。安全有时需要预见他人的愚蠢行为。保持健康的怀疑态度,并积极寻找潜在危险的动机。积极互动,可以降低自身风险,即使判断错误,也能保证安全。 Nicole Vignola: 许多不良习惯和思维模式源于童年时期受到的潜移默化的影响。一些不利的思维模式和行为习惯可能并非源于自身,而是来自他人的影响。许多潜意识的思维模式和行为习惯,只有在被带到意识层面后才能被改变。人们容易关注自身的负面方面,并做出负面结论。区分“现实”和“过度消极”至关重要,前者是目标导向的,后者则源于情绪。过度消极的思维模式会导致确认偏差,放大负面体验。通过关注自身重复的言行,可以意识到并改变不良习惯。改变并非完全改变自我,而是改进自身不足之处,并重新连接自身优点。相信自己能够改变,有助于成功改变。相信自己能够改变,并认同新的自我形象,是保持改变的关键。许多人认为自己无法改变,这阻碍了他们做出改变。改变习惯分为三个阶段:意识、步骤和强化。改变习惯需要重复,大脑会通过重复来形成新的神经通路。大脑具有可塑性,即使偶尔失败,也不会影响最终的改变。改变习惯需要时间和重复,不要期望一夜之间就能改变。想象也能改变大脑,通过想象可以创建新的神经通路。通过想象,可以为改变创建蓝图。改变习惯需要维护,良好的身心状态有助于维护习惯。良好的身心状态有助于维护习惯。改变习惯需要时间,不要期望一夜之间就能改变。改变习惯需要时间和重复,改变所需时间取决于习惯的根深蒂固程度和付出的努力。一次只改变一个习惯,避免分散精力。大脑的可塑性持续到老年,人们可以在任何年龄改变自身。

Whenever you see the equal sign, you know what it means. So how did these two little parallel lines come to mean - Is equal to? This episode begins with a story that goes back almost 1,000 years to reveal the answer. Source: Professor Stewart's Hoard of Mathematical Treasures (https://amzn.to/3RhUt8l) )

Do you feel safe? Do know what you would do if someone attacked you or broke into your home? Are you doing all you can to keep you and your family out of harm’s way? Perhaps most importantly, are sure you or your home are not an easy target for criminals? These are important questions we should all be asking ourselves according to Spencer Coursen. Spencer is a nationally recognized threat management expert and author of the book The Safety Trap: A Security Expert’s Secrets for Staying Safe in a Dangerous World (https://amzn.to/3gtV5pp).) Listen and you will feel better about staying safe in an uncertain world. 

Probably everyone has something about themselves they would like to change. But as we all know, change is hard. But what if it could be easier than you think? And what if you didn’t really have to change as much as you might think? That’s what Nicole Vignola is here to discuss. Nicole is a neuroscientist and organizational consultant and author of the book Rewire: Break the Cycle, Alter Your Thoughts and Create Lasting Change (https://amzn.to/3KAmZOO))

If you have a lawn, you have likely come to hate the dandelion. It is a prolific weed that drives people crazy. Actually, it didn’t start out that way. The dandelion was deliberately brought to North America and is used in some surprising ways. And insects love dandelions. Listen as I reveal why. http://www.gardenguides.com/76016-dandelion-flower.html)
