如果對壞習慣有所好奇，可以幫助我們戒除它們嗎？ 心理學者賈德森．布魯爾（Judson Brewer）研究冥想與嗜癮兩者的關係--從吸煙到暴飲暴食，以至到其他那些--我們明明知道有害卻又照做的事情。多了解一些有關於習慣其形成的模式，就會發現到一個簡單而有效的方法，在你下回犯菸癮、想吃零食或開車想回覆訊息的時候，它可能可以幫助你戒掉這些不好的習慣。

Habits like smoking and overeating are reinforced by deep, evolution-driven reward loops that can override logic and self-control, especially during stress. In one study, mindfulness training proved twice as effective as standard therapy for quitting smoking. By getting genuinely curious about cravings instead of fighting them, people move from intellectual knowledge to visceral understanding, which weakens old habits. This approach helps people step out of automatic loops and form healthier behaviors over time.
