Time Series Part 1: Is There a Time Famine?

This is part 1 of a series exploring the perception of time. How we experience time depends on what’s happening, our age, our mental health, our motivation, our emotions, what drugs we have ingested and the nature of our attention - for example, if we are looking backwards, at-the-present-moment or forwards.  And, how we perceive time makes a big difference to us: it impacts our mood, our wellbeing, our productivity, and our sense of meaning and purpose.  We start in this first podcast with the question of whether in fact we have ‘less time’ in modern life: whether we suffer from the so-called ‘time famine’.
