The Psychology of Time

In this episode of Everything’s Psychology, I sit down with Dr Richard Gross, author of The Psychology of Time, to unpack how our minds construct the very thing we live inside of: time. From internal body clocks and ‘mind time’ to cultural attitudes and our awareness of mortality, we explore why time can race, crawl, or seem to stand still.You’ll learn why your brain is always half a second late, yet your experience still feels live and continuous.You’ll hear how extreme situations – from car crashes to psychedelic trips – can make seconds feel like minutes, and why the memory of an event, not the event itself, often stretches time.You’ll discover why age, culture, and even gender can reshape your sense of time – and what that means for how you plan and live your life.Grab a copy of The Psychology of Time here:From Routledge: https://www.routledge.com/The-Psychology-of-Time/Gross/p/book/9781032696195From Amazon (UK): https://amzn.eu/d/gwqdR92From Amazon (US): https://a.co/d/b3MSis7This episode is sponsored by At My Best: www.atmybest.comUse code Everything10 to get 10% off all At My Best tools.Send us a textYou can watch the video of this episode on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/@EverythingsPsychology
