By definition, habit means "a settled or regular tendency or practice, especially one that is hard to give up."
There are many theories out there that habits take 21 days to solidify, however, according to research on average, habits take 66 days to build. Some take as few as 18 days and some may take 200+ days.
Why is that?
Training yourself to build new habits isn’t always as simple as “I’m just going to do this every single day”. It would be nice if it was that easy, wouldn’t it?
There are many different ways to add that habit into your day-to-day routine depending on what that habit is.
For those habits that are not as easy to rotate in (for example: building new eating habits) I encourage my clients to use my Best Self Method.
- Research
- Adjust
- Heal
Today I’m going to take you through each step of the method as it can apply to building new eating habits, specifically, we’re going to work through the best self method to build the habit of adding a vegetable to each meal and the steps that come with it.
