The science of motivation

With a new year just starting, many people take the opportunity to assess their situation. Perhaps they decide to make some changes, like taking better care of themselves. This might even include getting structural integration bodywork to improve how one’s body feels (just a thought!).

If you have made resolutions in the past and they have eventually fallen by the wayside, it could be that you were looking in the wrong place for motivation. Motivation best comes from within for much of what we do every day. If you would like to learn more about the science of why that is the case, check out Daniel Pink’s website or in his new book Drive.

Best wishes for 2011 and good luck in achieving your goals for the year!
