#AlcoholAwarenessWeek If willpower is not enough to change our behaviour then what works? Consistency, planning, tiny habits, habit stacking, noticing.
#AlcoholAwarenessWeek Willpower is not enough - if we want to change our behaviour, be it around alcohol, sleep, nutrition, exercise or our finances, we must focus on changing our habits. Noticing our current habits is the first step.
#AlcoholAwarenessWeek Behaviour change is a process. It's not linear. Focus on progress not perfection. If you want to change your relationship with drink, the first step is noticing.
#AlcoholAwarenessWeek Changing behaviour is first about noticing: how much you drink, when you drink and with whom. Taking a moment to consider what it is you'd like to change is the first step.
#AlcoholAwarenessWeek Changing our relationship with alcohol is a process which starts with awareness.
