How to Break Bad Habits: The No Willpower Approach (Video Interview)

Do you struggle with some kind of habit you’d like to break?

Do you over indulge in food or wine, or spend hours online? Do you compulsively shop or feel consumed by self doubt? Or do you do any one of a thousand other unwanted habits?

This week I talked to Dr Amy Johnson, author of  The Little Book of Big Change: The No Willpower Approach to Breaking Any Habit (New Harbinger, Jan 2016), about her groundbreaking approach to breaking habits and addictions.

Gentle, wise and instantly reassuring, and using a mixture of neuroscience and spirituality, Amy walks us through what’s really behind our bad habit or addiction and how to stop it at source.

I read Amy’s book last year (I was lucky enough to get a pre sale copy) and I loved it! Watch the interview here:

Or listen to it here:

 

We talk about…

Why traditional methods often don’t work and can actually strengthen your habit.

Why you feel so hijacked, and what to do instead so your urges lessen over time

Why setbacks are normal and what to do if/when you have them.

Our own personal stories, successes and failures.

Plus lots more, including an unscheduled appearance by Amy’s super cute dog, Buddha, who had an urgent matter to attend to in the middle of our interview.
