In this podcast, Jamie and Martin discuss how the past conditions the present and what we do now reinforces the future. How fateful is our behaviour and what is the role of free-will in the process of transformation?

•   How did early psychology see the effects that past has on the present and what models did it apply to help patients?

•   The change from early psychology to 3rd Wave CBT.

•   Discovery of the Unconscious and its everyday influence on our behaviour.

•   The importance of the role of ‘self’ in this model of psychology.

•   Is consciousness important for change to happen?

•   How does the Buddha’s teaching on no-self change how this is approached?

•   The Yogacara's answer to how continuity of characteristics and personality can exist, in the absence of a self.
