Habits are automatic behaviors that shape the outline of our lives. The path for a repeated behavior like brushing your teeth to become a habit begins in the brain. Research shows habits form when conscious choices are slowly integrated and reinforced across brain circuits over time. By repeating these actions over and over and over again, they become automatic - until one day, you don’t have to remember to brush your teeth when you get up. You just do it. It’s a habit.
