Habituate
A 60 Day Self Awareness & Habit Forming Program
Habituate is an exclusive guidance and coaching program created to support you to unhook from negative habits and ingrain positive habits (of mind and/or body) over a 60 day period – a realistic time frame to develop awareness and habituation.
The daily focus of the program is to consciously practice Essential Self Care Behaviours which are the fundamental actions of mind and body (what you think, say & do) that have a positive ripple effect on your health and wellbeing and on your relationships. They serve as the bedrock upon which other good habits are cultivated and maintained promoting emotional stability and holistic life satisfaction.
Whilst Habituate does focus on forming new habits, the process of this is at the core, developing self awareness and evolving your relationship with your Self which will provide you with a clearer, calmer and more fulfilling way to live daily life.
If you are stuck in negative behaviour patterns, Habituate is your pathway out!

How Does the Program Work?
With you every step of the way
Complete a Questionnaire About The Behaviour/s Your Want to Habituate.
Prior to starting the program you will receive a simple questionnaire to help you decide on a maximum of 3 Essential Self Care Behaviours to habituate. You will make a Commitment Pledge to yourself and email it to me as I will be your Accountability Partner and Coach over the 60 Day program.
Read the Morning Email & Be Conscious of Your Behaviour Throughout Each Day.
Every morning for 60 days you will wake up to a brief, informative and inspiring email that will set you up for a day of conscious behaviour practice and enduring motivation. The morning emails are the heart beat of the program; they will enlighten you to the root causes of negative behaviours/patterns and help you unhook from the problematic thoughts, beliefs, urges and behaviours that trip you up over and over again. And most importantly, they will keep you resolutely focused on the behaviours you commit to habituating. Attend 3 Live Talks on Zoom (Beginning, Middle and End) and watch/listen to the a recorded talk every week in between. On the 1st Monday, the Middle Monday and the 60th Day I will be live on Zoom to present the weeks 'Pep Talk & Mindfulness Practice', and every other Monday you will receive a recorded video of it. The Pep Talk sessions are informative and motivating and include simple writing tasks to enhance self awareness and a mindfulness practice to keep your attention in the present and your emotions steady. I strongly recommend that you attend the 3 live sessions because the live connection helps to keep you committed and motivated. If for some reason you can't be there, the sessions will be recorded and emailed to you the following day. See the 'Pep Talk Topic List' below.

My pledge to you is that I will help you maintain your commitment to yourself.
Whilst the behaviours you choose to habituate will be quite specific, they will originate from one of the following 5 Essential Self Care Categories.
This category focuses on appreciating food as fuel for the body so that you eat what your body needs, not what your mind/emotions craves. Nutritious and mindful eating is a critical part of maintaining robust health and wellbeing. The Week 3 Pep Talk will explore this topic extensively.
Daily physical activity is absolutely essential for mindbody health and vitality. Being active everyday has so many upsides and there are plenty of options that are simple, accessible, affordable and time efficient for where you are at on any given day. Daily Physical Activity is not neccesarily about ‘working out’ (although it can be) – it’s simply about moving your body everyday to keep it thriving. The Week 4 Pep Talk will provide simple ways to be active each day and to build strength and vitality – in mind and body.
This practice is a game changer in regards to mood stability, concentration capacity , energy and metabolism levels – and most beneficially, when we are well rested we are better at making values aligned decisions and remaining emotionally steady throughout the day. In the week 4 Pep Talk I will provide insights and practices for improving your sleep, I will also include a deep rest meditation.
There’s no doubt that emotion regulation and urge control are the the most important behaviour practices for all people on the planet (!) so if you have never learnt how to do this then this will an essential practice for you to habituate. In the week 6 I will talk in very simple terms about how your nervous system works, specifically what activates a triggered state, what deactivates it and how to do that within a few minutes.
This category applies to self, spousal/partner, family of origin, social and workplace relationships. As relationships are the feeder to and from our internal world every day, it is absolutely vital that we learn to communicate and connect through the filter of our values so we can be authentically ourselves and, the other person can be that too. The Week 7 Pep Talk will provide more insights into the complexity of relationship dynamics and to establishing relationship harmony in service of relationship longevity.
