Our Favorite Smart-Phone Apps for Self-Change

Smart phones and the internet can be excellent tools for self-monitoring your behavior, before and during your self-change. Websites can provide you with easy graphs, charts, and reminders. Health text message services can remind (or perhaps nag) you about keeping track of your habits and thoughts. Such devices can keep the information and reminders coming. It is sometimes hard to remember to track your progress, especially if you are swamped with work and other responsibilities.
