Usage examples
  • Habits allow us to move and function on a more automatic basis. These habits emerge from repetition until the behaviors become automatic. While many habits allow us to function at a higher level and are useful, there are many habits that limit functioning and are termed dominating. A helpful habit would be to automatically shut and lock the door when leaving the house. A dominating habit would be chewing on fingernails while talking to a stranger or repeatedly washing hands after using the restroom.
