Every Cognitive Bias Explained Slowly (For Sleep)

Take a slow, relaxing journey through the hidden shortcuts your mind uses every day. This video explores cognitive biases like anchoring, confirmation bias, hindsight bias, the availability heuristic, sunk costs, overconfidence, the Dunning-Kruger effect, and the bias blind spot—and explains why these mental shortcuts exist in the first place. Along the way, we look at famous psychology experiments, key researchers, and how these biases quietly shape our memories, decisions, relationships, money, risk, and everyday thinking.
