About this listen

Little changes can make a big, big difference! In The Little Book of Big Change, psychologist Amy Johnson shows you how to rewire your brain and overcome your bad habits - once and for all.

No matter what your bad habit is, you have the power to change it. Drawing on a powerful combination of neuroscience and spirituality, this book will show you that you are not your habits. Rather, your habits and addictions are the result of simple brain wiring that is easily reversed. By learning to stop bad habits at the source, you will take charge of your habits and addictions for good.

Anything done repeatedly has the potential to form neural circuitry in the brain. In this light, habits and addictions are impersonal brain wiring problems that result from taking your habitual thinking as truth, and acting on that thinking in the form of doing your habit - over and over. This book offers a number of small changes you can make in your everyday life that will help you stop your bad habit in its tracks.

If you want to understand the science behind your habit, make the decision to end it, and commit to real, lasting change, this book will help you to finally take charge of your life - once and for all.

So simple, so profound.

This book aims at changing habits and addictions but I think that the information within applies to a fuller, richer and more meaningful life. Embracing our HUMANITY fully.

In recovery from addiction myself, I thought Amy’s approach was a wonderful paradigm shift for my journey.

Life Changing

This book should be required reading! It truly freed me from the chains i felt i was bound in. Dr Amy Johnson's take on spiritual psychology and the New Paradigm have not only helped me with my problem with alcohol, but given me a guide to a more peaceful existence. Get onto this book pronto!

Best Little Book of Big Change!

I thought this little book was superb! I'm a therapist and I work within a very similar frameworks as this book was founded upon; however I still got a lot out of it.

I would say that early on I wasn't sure if I was going to get too much out of it, however it just got better and better and more and more effective as it went along. I have started recommending this to clients who are struggling with cravings and urges to act in ways that go against their values.

This book changed my life

I have been wasting money and my energy on diet after diet. From weight watchers to keto, from HCG diet to hypnotherapy. NOTHING worked. I had almost given up. Then I found this book. Something clicked. I’m a binge eater. This saved me. And the reference to brain over binge. I listened to both and am on the path to recovery for the first time in 22 years. Thank you for this book

excellent book to kick start habit change

Simple to understand concepts that don't make you feel overwhelmed. I like that it's not long but gets through a lot in the time.

Do yourself a favour. Read this book.!!!

Then read it again. Her voice is clear and easy to listen to. A totally different way of dealing with habits that really helps you see them in a totally unattached way. Loved it.

I’m blown away, so good!

Amy has managed to put together a wide body of knowledge into actionable simplicity. I’ve studied Buddhism and psychology and spirituality and self healing modalities etc, and I’ve never seen anyone put all those together so succinctly into a practical nutshell like this. I recommend this and her other book most highly!
