My 7 fav habit-change posts incl. boost self-control, beat procrastination, dating habits + stranger than fiction
Some juicy posts you may have missed …
Easier habit change
Wish you had more self-control & willpower? Well, here’s the biggest myth of self-control (+ marshmallows!) [Hint: you have PLENTY of self control - you just need to learn how to access it!]
How to use tiny behaviors for big habit change. What if habit change was easy? Well, ‘little & often' boosts habit change. The 'little' can be time, but equally it can be a little behavior, read on (a little) to learn creative ways of using this simple but powerful habit-change tactic ...
Life-transforming habits
My ugly-crying & the simple, proven tactic to boost your immunity [it’s impossible to overestimate the importance of this information - I describe the research (& my clinical experience) showing how this simple, free psychology hack can boost our immunity of such a magnitude that it leaves all existing drugs for dust! Big pharma does not want you to know this!]
Stranger than fiction
What REALLY happened at the Tantra workshop [I REALLY did NOT want to go to the Tantra workshop. But I had to. Because of my Policy of Yes!]
My encounter with the clairvoyant dominatrix - does this type of bizarreness ever happen to anyone else?
Relationship/dating habits
Staying single means we have no one else to blame! [benefits of singledom from Liz Gilbert - best selling author of Eat, Pray, Love, & bitterly-divorced me]
Unusual 1st date advice: They say never to ask your date this question [I disagree - the answer can tell you whether your date is potentially a keeper or whether to run away as fast as your legs will allow ...]
I wanted a trophy boyfriend [And I got one - when I finally stopped needing one to validate me! - this is my most embarrassing post to date! - and I still have plenty of time …]
Sick of struggling with unwanted habits - or unwanted weight - or being driven crazy by procrastination?
If so, you may enjoy working with me - I’ve been helping free people from unwanted habits ever since I got myself from uni dropout to PhD (it helps majoring in psychology!) Check out some of my client testimonials below - or head to my work with me page for more info.

“Hi Rebecca! Wanted to let you know about my victory after our procrastination-busting coaching session — late Thursday last week I was assigned ten articles to write, due a week later on the following Thursday (i.e. tomorrow). I finished the last one before noon Monday!!!”
MARCIA KAPUVAI, HANMER SPRINGS, NZ
“I’ve lost 20 kgs by exercising more and eating better. It really helps remembering what Rebecca says about weight-loss: that it’s not the most important thing in life.. yes I will get skinnier but does that mean that it would make me happier? No, it will make me healthier and fitter, which will make things easier physically, but weight-loss is not the main thing that would make me happier – if that makes sense. It also helps remembering that weight-loss is more bearable if you are happier, love yourself and remember your self worth”
ROBYN, AUDIENCE MEMBER, PECHA KUCHA EVENT, AUCKLAND
“Hi Rebecca, I really loved your talk and was totally inspired. My procrastination level had been over the top for quite a while. I was getting through each day just spending half my time thinking about what I should be doing next.
I used [the psychology technique] religiously for a week and was totally stunned by how much I achieved!! I was having problems filling up the day with tasks as I had never structured myself so well before.
I was achieving lots and ‘getting things done’ so well it felt like magic. Then I had a month where the wheels fell off … and I noticed by not using [the psychological technique] I was falling back into old habits again. So I am back on to it and can’t thank you enough for the wisdom you shared. It works really well for me and has changed my life. Keep up the great work.”
