A Good Place Therapy

Breaking free from a bad habit is challenging—that's why we recommend journaling as a powerful way to reflect, gain clarity, and take the first steps toward positive change. Writing allows you to understand your habits on a deeper level and build a stronger foundation for growth. Here’s a prompt to help you get started: Write two letters to your bad habit—the first thanking it for all the things it’s helped you with and the purposes it’s served, and the second letting it know all the ways that it’s harming you.
