The POP Principle for Sustainable Change
The POP principle is a decision-making tool designed to help individuals create sustainable changes in self-care behaviors such as eating and exercise. It stands for pause, open up options, and pick the joy choice, guiding users to make mindful decisions rather than impulsive ones. By incorporating a pause, individuals can consider their options and understand that flexibility is paramount when faced with challenges. The joy choice encourages embracing imperfect solutions, allowing for progress without the pressure of perfection.
