Week 4 Changes in Health Behaviors Reflective Journal

Why is change so hard?  The purpose of this reflective journal is to analyze why making changes in health behaviors tends to be such a difficult process for most people.

Part 1: Identify a person in your life who has tried to change a health behavior (it can be you if you choose). Some examples of health behaviors are diet, exercise, smoking, addiction, etc…). Discuss how that person went through each of the five stages of TTM (pre-contemplation, contemplation, preparation for action, action, and maintenance).
Part 2: Analysis. How difficult was it for the person to move from pre-contemplation to action? What factors seemed to spur him or her to action? Did they experience recidivism? If yes, why? If no, what helped them not experience it?  What role did belief in one’s own self-efficacy play in the behavior change?
