the four themes in resolve

  • It can look like a lot of things: eating healthier, exercising more, and getting better sleep. As we make New Year resolutions, to better care for our bodies is often one of the first things we promise ourselves. During this session, we'll hear from several experts about one of the things that helps you look after your body best: consistency.

  • It means taking the time to develop resiliency. A strong mind doesn't mean that you are never overly challenged, stressed or frazzled. Instead, it means that we are better equipped to deal with these situations when they arise. During this session, our experts will discuss what it means to train our brains this New Year.

  • This can be finding the spaces in your life where you think, “this is what gives life its meaning.” This looks different for everyone, but one thing remains the same: it's important to take the time to care for the part of you that seems to tap into something larger than life. Thanks to our experts, this session will remind us what it means to draw from that deeper sense of existence with more frequency in our everyday lives.

  • This asks you to take a step back and look at how you treat the other people in your life. Are there people in your life who you know deserve more of your time and attention but never seem to get it? This session is a chance to receive expert advice on how to put these relationships first, and to keep on doing so in a way that enriches both lives.
