Summary

Why is it that so many of us find it hard to stick to a new diet or lifestyle plan? We all start off well enough – full of energy and optimism but then the novelty soon wears off and life gets in the way. After some time, we are right back where we first started. Feel Better Live More Bitesize is my weekly podcast for your mind, body, and heart.  Each week I’ll be featuring inspirational stories and practical tips from some of my former guests. Today’s clip is from episode 92 of the podcast when my good friend, Dr Ayan Panja, put me in the hot seat. In this clip, we explore why lasting change doesn’t often come from huge life overhauls or extreme routines, but from small actions repeated consistently over time. We discuss why so many health plans fail, how 5 minute habits can create a powerful ripple effect throughout our lives, and why sustainable lifestyle change may be much simpler than we think.

In this clip, we explore why lasting change doesn't often come from huge life overhauls

or extreme routines, but from

five-minute habits can create a powerful ripple effect throughout our lives, and why sustainable

lifestyle change may be much simpler than we think.

1:30.8

minutes every day, that's where the magic happens. That's when

things start to change. I think the biggest issue at the moment is that nobody's got any time.
