Our Habit Body is our very best friend, recording and remembering every daily routine for us. Habits are reactivity set on automatic, behaviors conditioned to repeat.
If this is so, how come the one thing human beings do better than anything else is making the same mistake over and over and over again?
Based on results, we don't know as much about our habit body as people think. Fortunately since about 1990, after the convergence of Touch for Health and NLP, we have new Tools That Heal to get at the 90% of our habit body below conscious awareness. Find new language here, built on the Three Selves model.
A "habit body" is an easier, clearer, more workable concept than "unconscious." A habit body suggests "I can change this, if I want to."

Since muscle testing met NLP around 1990, our unconscious became much more accessible, for those who wish access. So we need a more accessible word and model for our unconscious.
The triune brain idea of the 1990s is increasingly passe in neuroscience. The new brain idea acknowledges much more communication and interdependence than previously thought. Consequently "fuzzier" but more useful ideas like EQ and our "habit body" are taking over.
These newer ideas are also better openings to therapeutic metaphor, the real horse power of holistic healing.
