We humans deal with lots of Communication Habits…such as people pleasing…and perseverating/ruminating/over thinking.

How can you overcome or at least decrease or unwind these super common habits?

Try Dr. Judson Brewer’s : 3 Step Habit Change process… Dr. Jud is a neuroscientist and addiction psychiatrist…who I’ve been fortunate enough to study with.

Dr. Jud’s 3 step process is called the Mindshift Method and uses the analogy of Gears: Like on a Car or Bike.

1.       Awareness: Is this that habit loop again? Notice it…stay aware…

2.       Curiosity (sans judgment…zero into the results): What am I getting from this? …How does it feel in the body (embodying results…)?

3.       BBO? Could I try something different? Compassion - breathe - take a walk or call a friend. Is there a BBO that’s different that you could consider?

When you tap into the Mindshift Method… 3-step process…remember, you’re in learning mode…SLOW DOWN…staying off electronics…stay present.

And know…that even you …I…can update our habits…when we’re aware.
