• This is how we have conceptualised Habit change in our LiFE functional-integrated exercise program.
  • First, articulating an action plan and then visualising doing it within a specific situation.
  • In repetition we begin to associate the environmental or situational cue with the action.
  • If done enough times to strengthen the association between the cue and the action then it becomes automatic.
  • Habit may initially be triggered by having an action plan, but over time that conscious planning becomes less necessary and the action becomes more automatic.
