Course overview
Lesson Overview
7.2 – Understanding Why Bad Habits Form: Bad habits often form because they meet an emotional need quickly. They give comfort, escape, or reward when life feels hard. Your brain remembers that relief and repeats the pattern, even if the outcome isn’t healthy. Stress, boredom, and fear are common triggers. The problem isn’t your willpower—it’s how your brain learns what feels safe. Understanding this helps you replace judgment with strategy. By finding better ways to meet those same needs, the habit starts to fade. Every habit makes sense once you know its reason. Knowing why it formed gives you the power to change it.
