Psychologist Amy Johnson, drawing on neuroscience and spiritual practices, explains how to get rid of unnecessary habits—once and for all.
The harder you try to break a destructive habit using willpower, the worse it gets. Paradoxically, the principle “pull yourself together and do it at any cost” often produces the opposite result: we get even more entangled in negative thoughts and actions.
Psychologist and coach Amy Johnson herself struggled for a long time with a habit that was poisoning her life, and she realized that violence against oneself doesn’t bring long-term results. In this book, she offers a different approach based on caring for yourself. The key to changing behavior lies in our mindset, and that’s exactly what you should focus on. With this, you’ll be able to get rid of the habits that interfere with you—without harming yourself.
