..and how to easily make LASTING change this New Year.\n\u200bI hope you had a restful festive period and are feeling energised to embrace the incoming year.\n\u200b\n\u200bIn this week's podcast, I talk about New Years resolutions and why they never work.\n\u200b\nWe all have the urge at this time of year to follow the crowd and set some resolutions.\nI know I used to get all fired up with my list. I\u2019ll do it this time! Eat better, exercise more or learning something new were among my top resolution themes.\nBut it never worked.\nI ended up failing and falling into shame and self-loathing.\nHow could I have failed again? I had so much drive and determination.\nAfter decades of the same cycle, I decided to step away from this strange cultural phenomenon. I was shown in a journey that this particular ceremony (and it is a ceremony) is cursed by a cultural story of failure.\nAnd this just the start of the problems with resolutions!\n\u200bJoin me this week as I discuss the toxic energy behind new years resolutions and some viable, long term alternatives to this story of perpetual failure.\nWe will also meet Janus, the Roman God of beginnings and endings, after whom the month of January was named.
