Power Tools Support Habit Change

If you want to successfully change your health habits, you have to retrain your brain to like your new healthy habits and to forget about your old unhealthy habits. Here's how it works. Our established health habits (self-care behaviors) are imprinted into the subconscious mind and act like an automatic tape recording which effortlessly reminds you each day what actions need to be performed in order to get your physical and emotional needs met. New self-care behaviors must be imprinted into the subconscious mind before they can become permanent self-care behaviors. This process takes time and persistence. And that's where Power Tools come in!

There are 3 sections of the Power Tools Manual. Each section has a companion video to walk you through the section. For each section, watch the video first, then read the section of the manual that goes with the video. Make sure you take time to complete the activities in each section of the manual.  

Start with Part 5.1 Power Tools. Watch the video then read pages 191 through 201. 

Next, watch Part 5.2 and read pages 202 through 206. 

Last, watch part 5.3 and read pages 207 through 213. 

Again! It is very important to complete the activities in each section. Power tools are really easy to use. Some people think the because the power tools are so easy to use, that they can't help with habit change. Power tools work with the brain. Remember, habit change starts in the brain. 

I encourage you to try every power tool and then choose a couple to continue to use during the habit change journey you are on.
