Cuentenme, hay algo que notaron en su entorno recientemente que no les guste pero se acostumbraron a verlo y les dejó de afectar?

En este episodio hablamos de la capacidad que tenemos las personas para de adaptarnos a nuestro entornos así sea favorable o desfavorables. Nos acostumbramos a ver las cosas bonitas y de repente ya no las vemos, pero igual pasa con las cosas feas. Nos acostumbramos a verlas y esto nos lleva a normalizar la fealdad en nuestro entorno cotidiano. A esta adaptación se le conoce como “habituación” o “adaptación hedónica”. In this episode I speak about my personal experience and how having a home that was not pretty (by my own standards) affected my mental health, along with information I learned from a couple studies and articles. 

Esta adaptación aplica a todo, desde nuestro barrio hasta nuestras relaciones. Por esa razón tenemos que estar atentos para hacer pequeños cambios que nos ayuden a mantenernos felices con la percepción que tenemos de nosotros mismos.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
