The Power

Corner Border Background

We all have our own unique habits, those behaviors that we do without giving them a second thought. And that is good because otherwise our brains would be bombarded in a mental overload of thoughts.

In fact, it is estimated that for every 11,000 signals that the brain receives from its senses, it only processes 40.

Sometimes these habits are not in our best interest and can have adverse effects on our health. Smoking, poor diets, excessive alcohol intake, and inactivity can not only harm your long-term health but also age you by several years.

               Conversely, good habits can allow us to follow positive health                    practices without even realizing it, leaving our valuable brain                        power available for addressing its many other demands.

                             As the old proverb goes, habits are at first cobwebs, then                               cables. Make sure that your cables are not only strong but                                that they serve you well.
                          

Tips Header

Don't attempt to change everything at once. Begin with one habit and keep it in your awareness as often as possible. Once you are aware of it, it is easier to stop doing it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

To be successful in cultivating a good habit, make sure that it is simple. The purpose of habit is to be able to do it without thinking about it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It takes the brain 21 days to create a new neural pathway so repeat your new habit faithfully everyday for three weeks and then forget about it. Your brain will take over from that point.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Write it down. Commit to your new habit by putting it on the calendar, or posting it on the refrigerator door.
