What if lasting change had far less to do with motivation… and far more to do with systems, awareness, and identity? The first book in the psychology and spirituality series, Ditch Your Therapist, introduced a future-self rewiring approach — helping readers step out of endless fixing and into a calmer, clearer, more empowered way of living. Then, A Flexible Mind explored how psychological flexibility allows that future self to be lived moment by moment. Now, in this third book, Lasting Behavioural Habit Change brings these ideas into everyday behavioural transformation. Drawing upon behavioural science, therapeutic insight, mindfulness, and practical psychology, psychologist and author Alan Sullivan reveals why so many attempts at change fail — not because people are weak or lazy, but because they rely too heavily on motivation and willpower while ignoring the systems and conditions that shape behaviour. This book offers a compassionate and practical framework for creating sustainable habits that support greater well-being, emotional resilience, clarity, health, productivity, and meaning. Inside, you’ll discover: Why motivation is unreliable for long-term change - How habits are shaped by cues, rewards, emotions, and environment - The role of awareness and psychological flexibility in behavioural transformation - Therapist-informed strategies for reducing resistance and self-sabotage - Practical ways to make positive behaviours easier, more natural, and more sustainable - How identity and nervous system regulation influence lasting change Clear, grounded, and accessible, Lasting Behavioural Habit Change bridges psychology and spirituality in a way that is both practical and deeply human. The real transformation is not about becoming someone else, but about creating the conditions that allow your best self to emerge naturally.
