To successfully build a habit, it is helpful to understand what happens in your brain when actions become habits. Every action we perform consists of three steps:

• Trigger: The signal that sets an action in motion
• Reaction: The behavior in response to the signal
• Reward: The benefit we gain from the habit

Over time, these activities become ingrained habits as our brain builds a strong network of neurons to support these habits. Our habits therefore change the nature of our brain. We can use this insight to build new habits that become easier and easier over time.

Behavioral psychology has some tips to help us build and maintain new habits. Here are the top three tips:

1. Stack habits: one of the best ways to build a habit is to identify a current habit you're already cultivating and then "stack" your new behavior on top of it.
2. Start small: It's tempting to write yourself a whole long list of new habits you want to implement in the new year. However, research shows that we have a better chance of success if we start with smaller goals and bring in continuity.
3. Patience: It takes at least 18 days for a new activity to become a habit. During this time, it is quite normal to find the change a little more difficult. Keep at it anyway, it's worth it!

The next 6 months have been designed to introduce you to a new habit each month. Some habits will be easier for you, others will be a challenge. But use each month to integrate the habit into your life to reap the health benefits. Once you have completed a month, you can decide whether you want to continue with the habit and continue to build new healthy habits. Our supplements provide you with optimal support and ensure that you can easily integrate at least one healthy habit into your everyday life every day. We wish you lots of fun!
