"Behaviour isn't random. It is responsive. And more often than not, it's being cued by something you can see."
Ever wondered what it takes to harness the power of your environment in shaping your behaviour? Molly Watts, the host of The Alcohol Minimalist Podcast, dives into the fascinating world of visual triggers and their impact on our habits. In this Think Thursday episode, Molly unpacks how these subtle cues—like a bottle on the counter or a glowing screen—can influence your actions without you even realising it.
She explains how visual input is processed faster than any other sense and becomes tightly linked with repetitive behaviours. Drawing on neuroscience and habit psychology, Molly provides practical strategies to manage these cues effectively. Whether it's moving a tempting snack out of sight or placing a journal on your pillow to encourage bedtime writing, Molly shares actionable tips to help you control unwanted behaviours and reinforce positive ones. It's all about working with your brain rather than against it.
So, are you ready to audit your visual environment and make it work for you? Dive into this engaging episode and discover how you can start creating sustainable change today.
