A new and more effective way to change habits and lifestyle
Easychange is a totally new approach to habit change. We call it personal change programming, or PCP. And since it’s all about the brain, it’s all about psychology.
You could say that PCP is to psychology what pills are to medicine. An effective vehicle to deliver the right cure for the right problem into humans.
This is how it works
A program lasts from one day, up to a year. Each session takes about 10-20 minutes.
They can be used by anyone anywhere, on all platforms.
Not only will you be told what to do to manage a certain change. The program will actively help you do it. Day by day, till you have reached your goal.
You have individualised just- in- time theraphy available around the clock. And even if you relapse back to your old habit the program gets you back on track again.
The number of Easychange programs is increasing steadily in the areas of prevention, wellbeing and living better with chronic diseases. Get a sneak preview of our coming English program portal at easychange.net.
RIGHT TO THE Core OF THE WORLD’S LARGEST HEALTH CHALLENGES
Effective help to change habits and lifestyle may be the most effective health measure of our time.
70% of all health budgets are spent on diseases caused by unhealthy habits
People will have to take more responsibility for their own health
Most people have something they would change, if they thought they could do it
No nation can afford to meet all the health challenges of an ageing population
Easychange programs are now running in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland and Iceland. Tens of thousands of users have benefited from Easychange to quit smoking, drink less, stress down, eat healthier, become more active, increase their mood and wellbeing or live better with a chronic disease. We want to take our programs worldwide.
Does it work?
Easychange is evidence based.
Every component that goes into Easychange has proven to be effective in clinical trials. The effect of the programs have been documented in 6 randomized clinical trials and accepted in the Cochrane Library. Details on effect of specific program ingredients have been documented in over 20 user studies. More documentation in the library.
