SEASIDE — At 1 p.m., Saturday, Feb. 16, the Friends of the Seaside Library will host certified health coach Jenn Visser. The event will take place in the library’s Community Room.

Have you tried to change your habits and failed? It’s not because you’re a willpower weakling — it’s because you’re only focusing on the action part of the habit.

Habits are the automatic behavior created by the world we live in. They are patterns in the subconscious, which accounts for 95 percent of our thinking. Trying to change a habit with just the action piece is like a tug of war with 95 percent of the team on the other side. To change a habit, you have to change your beliefs, thoughts, words and emotions tied to that habit.

In this presentation, you’ll learn how to recognize and change many parts of a habit so you can live your most awesome life.

Visser, a Seaside resident, specializes in the psychology of habits. She is the founder and owner of the Healthy Hub Wellness Center.

The Seaside Public Library is at 1131 Broadway St. For more information, call 503-738-6742 or visit seasidelibrary.org.
