How to straighten up and free yourself from negative behaviour patterns
BREAKING BAD HABITS

Our lives are essentially woven together with a series of daily habits and rituals. When we're living in a way that feels peaceful, it's usually because our positive practices outweigh the not-so-great ones.

Consider habits such as overindulging in junk food, working excessively, endlessly scrolling through social media, or overspending. I think that we usually know when something starts to become an issue.

Deep down, we can sense when they start to steal the joy from other areas of our lives. It's true that we all grapple with habits we wish to change.

Breaking these unwanted habits can be challenging, particularly if they've been the fabric of your life for an extended amount of time. I'm sharing some simple, yet effective tips to help you break free from the practices that are no longer serving you.

The journey begins with a well-crafted strategy and actionable steps to keep you on course. No matter the nature, with determination and a clear plan, I hope these ideas will help you find the more positive rituals to enrich your life.

Be profoundly honest with yourself
