The Real Reason Health Habits Don't Stick

In this episode of The Health Commute, Dr. Dan and Dr. Pascal explore why so many people struggle to stay consistent with their health — even when they know exactly what they should be doing. They discuss how all-or-nothing thinking, unrealistic expectations, and busy schedules cause people to drift away from healthy routines, and why falling off track isn't failure — it's a normal part of long-term health. The conversation connects this mindset to spinal health, movement, posture, and ongoing care, showing why progress comes from keeping changes realistic and learning how to restart when life gets busy. Big takeaway: Health habits don't stick because of a lack of motivation — they stick when consistency becomes the goal.
