E242: The Science of Making Good Habits in Long Term Sobriety
Many of us eventually realize that we have unhealthy habits like eating a bunch of junk at night, drinking way too much caffeine, not exercising, and more. We want to change these, but changing habits is tough. We can easily get into the same cycle we did with our drinking where we say we’re going to do it and then we do nothing, or we get inspired briefly, and then go right back to normal. So how can we take advantage of the brain’s habit building system to get some healthy habits into our lives? In this episode you’ll learn how the brain forms habits and what makes the process quicker or slower. I’ll discuss a few ways that you can approach making new habits so it’s easier to follow through.
