Psychology Now

Magazine

"Understanding human behaviour and mental processes, whether our own or those belonging to others, is essential if we want to make better decisions and lead happier lives. Why do we feel certain emotions in specific situations? Why do we behave in particular ways? And what can we do to overcome the things that hold us back? Delve into the world of psychology and build a better relationship with your mind. Learn how to be kind to it, unlock its full potential and use it to your advantage. In the pages that follow, we explore why people feel the need to give unsolicited advice (and why we’re often guilty of giving it), how to heal emotional hurt, and why hardships can benefit us. We also look into the power of manifesting, the psychol...ogy of serial killers, whether we’re bubble-wrapping our kids, and what drives us to stalk people online. Packed full of expert guidance from psychologists, counsellors and other professionals, we also speak exclusively to Levison Wood about the benefits of adversity and stepping out of our comfort zones. The mind is a powerful tool. Learn how to take control of your own mind today for a happier, healthier tomorrow." more
