What do you do when you’ve lost your fight and slip back into sloppy habits that make you miserable? You pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and get back in the game. In this episode, I’m exploring habits, the cues and triggers that govern them, the benefits they provide, and how to replace “bad” habits with better ones. I’m discussing my long, weight loss saga, and the way I’m moving forward, as a woman in my late 50s, to rebuild my healthy eating and exercise habits. It’s a rational approach, made tolerable by the soothing sounds of my spoken word poetry. In this episode, I explore:
- What habits are and how they work
- The hows and whys of replacing a “bad” habit with a better one
- How habit stacking can help
- How to problem solve when unhealthy habits persist
- How to plan for failure so you don’t lose your mind when you slip up
- My weight-loss (and weight-gain) story and how I’m moving my habits back into a healthy direction with the help of my trusted friend, music
Welcome to my reflections from the bright side of the beat.
