The Science of Habits - Tiny Moves, Big Changes

Felix Mercer explores the neuroscience of habit formation, revealing why starting absurdly small—one breath, one sentence, one step—creates lasting change. Learn about habit stacking, the 66-day automaticity timeline, environment design, and how micro-habits rewire your basal ganglia. Discover why consistency beats perfection and self-compassion outperforms willpower in building routines that stick. Loved this episode?

The Science of Habits - The Art of the Unlearn

Felix Mercer explores the neuroscience behind why bad habits persist and how to break them using evidence-based strategies. Discover why willpower fails, how habits migrate from conscious thought to automatic processing in the basal ganglia, and learn practical techniques like trigger disruption, habit substitution, and approach goals that work with your brain's architecture rather than against it.

The Science of Habits - Inside the Loop

Felix Mercer explores the science behind habit formation, from B.F. Skinner's pigeon experiments to modern neuroscience revealing how the basal ganglia automates behavior through cue-routine-reward loops. Discover why the 21-day myth is wrong, why breaking habits feels impossible, and how understanding your brain's automation system empowers you to rewire it intentionally. Loved this episode?
