Summary
What is psychology? Why are there so many views on how human psychology works? What are some key questions in psychological work? This is both a foundational episode for understanding all of the work I do on this podcast, and for our May and June Psychology series, where we look at many critical questions in psychological and self-development work. My definition? Psychology is the study of why you are the way you are. [I apologise for the mic taps. I attempted to edit out as many as possible.] Next listen: Key Principles for Psychological Work, Part 1/2 My Psychology category: https://player.captivate.fm/collection/9f81342e-0c6f-4b7d-ab6c-bd333126470e Explore my 200-episode podcast library: https://deep-psychology.com/#pod-cats Newsletter & books: https://deep-psychology.com/my-links
