#347: Health Habits I'm taking Into The New Year

It might be overdone, but I must say I love the newness of a new year. I know, it really doesn't change anything. January 1st is no different than any other day of the year, but I think it causes reflection, and that (hopefully) changes things.

I've been reflecting a lot over the past few weeks—what's working well, what isn't, and what I want to take into the new year. And, I must say, I've found some interesting points, including a newfound love for being right where I am.

It might sound unexciting, but I'm actually loving my current reality. I need to celebrate this because I've spent nearly every other year of my adult life wishing for the next season. Not out of hate for my present but from a belief that something better was always ahead.

I lived life like a chase, which ultimately meant I wasn't living it well.

Last year, I committed to breaking up with this mindset, to fully live in the present. While difficult at first, it's been one of the greatest experiences of my life—one I didn’t even realize I needed.

The beauty is that contentment and change can coexist. Contentment is not the same as complacency.

So, as I reflect back on what is working well, what isn’t, and where I want to grow, I thought I’d share some updates. My life these days involves less five-year planning and more pattern-shifting and system-building. In fact, moving from goal-setting to pattern-shifting has led to more health changes this year than in the past five years combined.

Listen to learn the five things that are working well and that I’m taking into 2025.
