Since we came back from the New Year’s break, I’ve been asking all of my practice members this question: “What are your resolutions?” And I’ve been surprised that the most common answer so far has been “Oh, I don’t believe in those.”

I suppose it really shouldn’t be surprising that less and less people are taking part in the tradition – only about 8% of Americans are successful in achieving their resolutions anyway… and I’m assuming the statistics are similar in Canada.

However, What I’m really asking, when I say: “What are your resolutions?”, is: “What are your goals for this year?”

Research shows that we need to do something consistently every day for at least 21 days to create a new habit, and that’s exactly our intent with our monthly challenges.

We’ve chosen 12 of the most powerful and impactful strategies from each category (eat, move, and think) as the focus for each month.

This month’s challenge (if you choose to accept it) is to get on a Win Streak™!

Happy New Year!

If you’re like most of us, you’ll be using this special time of the year to reflect and renew. Many of us decide to break old, unhealthy habits. Others resolve to take better care of themselves, improve their diets, lose some weight, begin a regular exercise program or generally just get back on the path to Lifetime Wellness.

But, many people have already given up on their New Year’s resolutions…again. Why do so many people fail at making the positive changes they promise themselves?
