Dr. Diane Gehart

A best-selling author and professor, I've studied happiness and how to achieve it for decades. 

More importantly, I am a human living life like everyone else on the planet. 

Life is often more challenging than it appears.

After writing 14 books, training thousands of therapists, and helping hundreds of thousands of clients, I've come to a startling conclusion: psychotherapy has made happiness too complex.

We need to simplify.

Caroline's Success Story...

I'm so happy to have learned about applying 5-minute micro-habits into my life. The micro-habit I committed to was a 5-minute mindfulness exercise before bedtime which I anchored to the book I typically read before sleeping. Starting small and anchoring to activities I already did was the game changer to building a positive habit into my daily routine.

I committed to doing a 5 minute guided meditation once a day and it brought me so much peace and clarity. Knowing it was okay to do just 5 minutes a day got me going and kept me consistent.

Mary Anne's Success Story...

I have been using the 5 Minute Micro Habit practice to write my digital course(s) and develop handouts.  Each day I write, jot and/or research something related to my course(s), sometime a couple of minutes, 5 minutes, or longer.  This habit has strengthened my brains neural pathways in an amazing way as ideas, titles and insights keep coming to my mind even when I am not working at it.  I realized I need to carry around little notebook to make sure I capture my thoughts.  I  am working at applying this practice to other areas of my life, plus sharing it with my clients.  So good!.

Shirley's Success Story...

I used 5-minute micro-habits (5MMH) to begin a mindfulness practice. 5MMH gently allowed me to first build the habit and then increase the time I spent with it. I felt a daily sense of being successful and accomplished even if I only did - what “I” had set as the minimum goal for the day. Today I have a successful practice, and have experienced the amazing benefits of mindfulness.

Karina's Success Story...

I decided to spend 5 minutes each morning stretching out my body, focusing on my breath, and feeling appreciation for the beauty of the trees, sky and sounds of nature from my backyard. After a few days of conscious effort to get into the habit, now I hardly think about it! Every morning it is simply what I do, and my body and mind both feel refreshed for the day to come

Megan's Success Story...

As a counseling grad student, it's been all too easy to let the things that sustain me and bring joy to my life fall by the wayside. Devoting just five minutes everyday to playing the guitar has been incredibly empowering, and much easier to keep up with than I expected it would be. This small change in my daily routine has made me feel so much more confident in my own ability to devote time to the things I care about, affect change in my life, and fill my own cup enough to be an attuned, effective counselor.

Frequently Asked Questions

Jaime's Success Story...

Under the well being pillar of stress management, my ultimate goal was to become more mindful to aide in regulation and gain more confidence in clinical skills. I had no experience with practicing mindfulness and it was intimidating to me. To build the habit, I used the app insight timer and began with 5 minutes a day of guided meditation or breathing exercises a minimum of 3 days a week, which I would do as soon as I woke up. By the end of the year I increased meditation from 5 minutes to up to an hour and I am able to sporadically use breathing techniques or meditation throughout the day to help cope with difficult situations. Plus I’m also able to practice it with clients and teach clients how to do it now.

Darcy's Success Story...

I had fallen out of my daily habit of centering and journaling when I learned about Dr. Gehart’s technique of micro-habits. I could feel the difference in my days since I had stopped my daily reading, centering and journaling, but I just couldn’t get started again. 
 
I thought her technique sounded too easy, and was looking for a more complex reason why I had stopped my daily practice. 
 
But I gave it a try, and it worked! 
 
I started getting out of bed and taking 30 seconds to write down 3 things I was grateful for. Next, I moved up to a minute, and slowly got to the point where I now have a solid 45 minute morning routine that is such blessing to my days. T
 
he great thing is that it ultimately ended up affecting my nighttime routine and choices. I go to bed an hour earlier than I used to, and turn off Netflix! 
 
So, these micro habits are a life changing game changer!
