Breaking Free of Your Habits

<p>Have you ever tried to change a behavior but fall back into old habits? In this episode, we explore the work of B.F. Skinner who believed behavior was affected by one of three operants. In his book, <em>Beyond Freedom &amp; Dignity</em> (1971), he implied that humans had no free will or individual consciousness. Join us for an interesting discussion on the power of habit and the ability to change, including:</p><ul><li>The difference between Classical and Operant Conditioning</li><li>How our society uses conditioning to control the masses or manipulate behavior</li><li>How social media, dating, work habits and dieting are all influenced by conditioning behavior</li><li>Why we disagree with Skinner and that human beings are able to change</li><li>What this means for coaching and helping clients change their behavior</li></ul><p><br/>To learn more about Skinner&apos;s work, check out these videos:<br/>Pigeon Turn: <a href='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TtfQlkGwE2U'>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TtfQlkGwE2U</a><br/>Skinner Box: <a href='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CtoH5tlr-bI'>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CtoH5tlr-bI</a></p><p>Watch the next Soul Session in this series on our <a href='https://www.youtube.com/c/CreativeMindMethod/?sub_confirmation=1'>YouTube Channel.</a><br/>Discover our <a href='https://www.creativemindlife.com/life-coach-training/'>Jungian Life Coach Training Program</a>.</p>
