When it comes to building new, healthy routines – simplicity is the secret weapon for success. Did you know your brain is naturally wired to thrive on patterns of three? It’s true! Neuroscience and psychology both show us that three is the smallest number required for our brain to establish a new pattern or routine. That’s why Balance in Motion is launching the Easy as 1,2,3 series: to help you develop new, healthy routines in just 3 easy steps!
Keeping it simple with three easy steps reduces overwhelm, increases carryover, and ensures success. Simple routines remove unnecessary steps. The easier it is to start – the more likely you’ll actually do it. Keeping it simple also allows you to carry the new habit or routine into your daily life. When you make small changes over time, rather than try to overhaul your whole life at once, you increase your chance for success!
Use the easy as 1,2,3, posts as actionable guides to help you develop new routines to become a healthier, more independent YOU. Your brain is capable of growth and renewal at any age – so why not start now?!
Follow along on our website or socials for weekly Easy as 1, 2, 3 posts!
