Small Habits for a Big Life
Summary
Change is not about grand statements and sweeping gestures. It is about chipping away, a bit at a time, at the habits that hold us back.
Dr Rebecca Ray knows about the power of small habits to make big changes. By introducing small changes into her own life, she transformed her career as a clinical psychologist to become one of Australia's most effective communicators on matters of the mind. Rebecca has helped many members of her large online community and her clients do the same.
In Small Habits for a Big Life (Macmillan, 2022), Dr Rebecca Ray breaks down the process for her reader. She explains how we can override the part of the brain that seeks pleasure and comfort (ice cream and wine) and activate the parts that tolerate some discomfort for the sake of long-term goals (an hour of study instead of an hour of TV).
Small Habits for a Big Life clears the way for readers to embark on their own path to change and provides exactly the right amount of support along the way.
