What is a habit?

"We are what we repeatedly do"

-Aristotle

Habits make up a portion of our day, while we are running on auto-pilot.  Many many habits are healthy and normal. Some habits simply are not and cause more harm in the long term.

In reality, one does not quit a habit, without replacing it with another.

The challenge is to identify the triggers for the unhealthy habit and incorporate new ones with healthier choices. 

Trying to quit smoking? Trying to cut back on or quit sugar? Trying to drink more water? Trying to exercise more?

For many it is a physical addiction to the unhealthy substance or its impact.  For many it is a stress relieving or social habit.  For many unfortunately it maybe both.
