How to create a healthy habit:
Start with a small, achievable goal/habit you want to create. For example, your ultimate health goal might be running a marathon, but you’re not fit yet. Start by committing to a 20-minute walk every day.
Create an action plan. Plan how you are going to achieve that goal and how you are going to hold yourself accountable.
Schedule your new habit into your diary or set a reminder on your phone – in case you forget.
Remember that consistency is key – habits take 21 days to form and 90 days to make a lifestyle change.
