You've probably heard the phrase: "humans are creatures of habit". Are we? How much control do we really have over our routines? How can we make those good habits stick (and kick the bad ones) faster? In this Episode, Drew & Liv speak with Dr. Ben Gardner, a professor in Psychology at King's College London, whose research focuses on habit formation. Follow along as we learn what a habit really is, the truth behind the "21-Day" myth, and why you shouldn’t step on three grates in a row.You can find Ben on Twitter @drbengardner.
