All articles where pleasure is mentioned

The night went by so fast, but the fall on the concrete floor happened in slow motion. Intoxication is a cruel pleasure. I found myself being pulled by my friends from the ground where I hit my head. Before I knew it, we were in a speeding car. It was chaos. I was bawling, screaming for my doctor’s name. My friends were trying to calm me down. Then, it all went dark.

“The capacity to experience pleasure or enjoyment without getting distracted by intrusive thoughts contributes at least as much to a happy and satisfied life as successful self-control.”According to new research from the University of Zurich and Radboud University in the Netherlands, enjoying short-term pleasurable activities that don’t lead to long-term goals contributes at least as much to a happy life as self-control. The researchers therefore argue for a greater appreciation of hedonism in our lives.This is one of those hot new research topics that comes out and makes people think to themselves, “Wait, I already knew that.

So, yes, I know that means many of us are NOT out at bars, meetings, etc., as discussed below...but learning to drink mindfully (even at home) is still a healthy goal, and in fact I know many of us are even MORE interested in how to moderate drinking than ever before. So, even though the first paragraph refers to being "out and about" please know that the techniques in the article below are still relevant, and can potentially be more important than ever if you find alcohol calling your name during COVID.

Permission to Indulge? Relapse Self-Talk During COVID-19

With the current crisis and upheaval in our lives, there are many “good excuses” to exceed personal limits you set for yourself on drinking, using drugs, or any other indulgent and possibly addictive behaviors. The same can be said about diets and emotional or binge eating. If you’ve set limits for yourself, your success will depend in part upon your ability to resist “relapse self-talk” that tempts you to abandon your goals. You’ll face the same challenging self-talk you encountered pre-pandemic, but now amplified by current circumstances that can be used to justify exceeding your limits.

The idea of “signature” behavior while committing a crime is that offenders make choices that reveal aspects of their personality. “The killer’s signature is his psychological ‘calling card’ that he leaves at each crime scene across a spectrum of several murders,” says former homicide detective Robert Keppel.
