Let’s be real, we’ve all got bad habits that are less than beneficial to our wellbeing. Whether it’s scrolling Instagram for hours or being late to everything – it’s time to admit that a big part of adulting is recognizing our own troublesome habits and doing the work to change them. We’re all about growth here at Teach Me How To Adult, people!

The good news is: bad habits aren’t actually that hard to shake once you break it down. When we understand the psychology behind our patterns we can rewire our routines and start replacing them with good habits, instead. Revolutionary, we know!

So we’re getting to the bottom of all our bad habits in this week’s Quickie and breaking down the 5 steps to break free of them!

  • The psychology behind how bad habits are formed

  • Getting clear on why you *need* to change your habit
