Neuroscience is increasingly helping us to understand how our brains work (and sometimes don’t). It has upended the long held tenet that our brains are fixed, and has shown that we have the capacity to rewire our patterns of thought and behaviour.

New, good habits can through repetition come to replace old, destructive habits. This wonderful asset of neuroplasticity offers great hope to us.

According to researchers, forming both good and bad habits depends more on how often you perform an action than the satisfaction you get from the action.

One of the traits of depression is that we stop doing the things we derive pleasure from, as we no longer get the pleasure we once got from them.

And one of the key aspects of lifting mood is to do those things you know would under normal circumstances bring you pleasure, even if it does not feel worthwhile.
