According to James Clear, “Your life today is essentially the sum of your habits”. But what if you’d like to break old habits and make new ones that will totally transform your life? What would you do to improve yourself without being overwhelmed or even trying everything at once? What steps are you going to make to keep things moving forward and be able to make it a habit?    This week’s Empower Your Pelvis Podcast, Dr. Amanda Fisher will talk about the framework of creating new habits developed by James Clear as described in his book, the Atomic Habits, and how she uses this to empower her patients and not overwhelm them with routines and exercises that are new to them. She will also discuss how these new habits can help you improve your pelvic floor health, your work, and your life in general.   Book Reference: The Atomic Habits by James Clear     I will touch on such topics as:   How can a small habit decrease the endurance, decrease the fatigue that is happening on those pelvic floor muscles so the patient gains confidence and can run without leakage? Habit consists of four things: Cue, Craving, Response, and the Reward; and why these four elements are important in creating new habits. What action triggers those habits, whether it becomes a positive habit or a negative habit?  91% of people are more likely to do their habits when they write it down and document what they do than to those people who don’t.  How can your habits slowly become your identity?   P.S.
