Summary

Habit Loops: Breaking and Reinforcing Behaviors for Better Mental Health explores the science behind habit formation and its impact on our well-being. It reveals how understanding habit loops—the cue, routine, and reward cycle—can empower us to break unwanted behaviors and cultivate positive ones. The book highlights how habits are deeply rooted in our brains, with the basal ganglia playing a key role in encoding these automatic behaviors. Interestingly, dopamine, a neurotransmitter associated with reward, significantly influences our habit-seeking tendencies. The book provides practical strategies for changing habits, such as modifying cues, substituting routines, and altering rewards. It emphasizes the importance of self-awareness and mindfulness in disrupting ingrained patterns. Readers will learn techniques for building positive habits through goal setting, implementation intentions, and environmental design. The book progresses by first introducing the core concepts, then moves to breaking bad habits, and finally, focuses on building positive ones. What sets Habit Loops apart is its practical, evidence-based approach. It synthesizes research from neuroscience, psychology, and behavioral economics to provide actionable tools for self-improvement and better mental health. Case studies and real-world examples illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed strategies, making it a valuable resource for anyone seeking to understand and reshape their daily routines.

    This program is read by read by Sura Siu with an exclusive note written and read by the author.One of TIME and Oprah Daily's Most Anticipated Books of 2025“Siu's measured, compassionate delivery honors Nguyen's story, which balances the raw emotion of trauma with the strength of survival.”—AudioFile"Amanda’s story—innovatively told by versions of herself at different ages—underscores the lasting power of speaking your truth, building a movement, and never losing sight of your dreams.” —Melinda French Gates"In Saving Five, Amanda Nguyen shows us how to reclaim the full spectrum of our lives, replete with pain, fury, creativity, and recovered dreams.” —Chanel Miller, author of Know My NameA brave and imaginative memoir by the Nobel Peace Prize nominee Amanda Nguyen, detailing her healing journey and groundbreaking activism in the aftermath of her rape at Harvard.In 2013, the trajectory of Amanda Nguyen’s life was changed forever when she was raped at Harvard.Determined to not let her assault derail her goal of joining NASA after graduation, Nguyen opted for her rape kit to be filed under “Jane Doe.” But she was shocked to learn her choice to stay anonymous gave her only six months to take action before the state destroyed her kit, rendering any future legal action impossible. Nguyen knew then that she had two options: surrender to a law that effectively denied her justice, or fight for a change—not only for herself but for survivors everywhere.A heart-wrenching memoir of survival and hope, Saving Five boldly braids the story of Nguyen’s activism—which resulted in Congress’s unanimous passage of the Sexual Assault Survivors’ Rights Act in 2016—with a second, beautifully imagined adventure, of Nguyen's younger selves as they—at ages five, fifteen, twenty-two, and thirty—navigate through dramatic incarnations of the emotional stages of her path toward healing, not only from her rape but from the violent turmoil of her childhood. The result is a groundbreaking work that seamlessly blends memoir with a moving journey toward acceptance and hope, forging a path ahead that is as inspiring as it is instructive.From one of the most influential activists (and now astronauts) of her time, Saving Five is at once a tribute to resilience, a celebration of healing through action, and a resounding cry to change the world.
