Before The Habit

Where Change Begins

By Doaa Samir Bazan

What happens before we lose motivation, struggle with consistency, or begin calling ourselves lazy? Before the Habit — Where Change Begins invites you to look at change from an earlier starting point: perception. Through personal experiences, years of coaching practice, and careful observation, Doaa Bazan shares the journey behind Gentle Emotional Engineering™ (GEE), exploring how relationships and everyday environments shape our experiences long before changes in behavior become visible. Along the way, she introduces Naming Intact Perception (NIP), a way of protecting what we notice before explanations and assumptions take over. The book ends with a guided 12-day reflective experience, inviting you to explore these ideas in your own everyday life. A book you don't just read. A book you experience. Read at your own pace. Begin the 12-day experience whenever you're ready.
