Have you already quit your New Year’s Resolutions? <<read more>>

In this issue of Behind the Weal, we're diving into the topic of quitting New Year's resolutions and what to do instead. We're also kicking off Week 2 of the New Year, Year Start 2026 Quest with a focus on food and nourishment before closing with a reminder to register for IntentionHaus™.

During the Winter season (January to March) at This Life is Good is when we focus on Intention and reflection. It’s a quieter, inward-facing time that invites us to pause before we push forward, to listen before we decide, and to notice what’s nudging us for attention in the months ahead.

By mid-January, many people have already let go of their New Year’s resolutions. It’s so common there’s even a name for it: Quitters Day! If you're one of the many millions of people who's already let go of your New Year's resolutions — don't despair — there's still hope! This week in Notes on a Good Life, I reflect on why quitting New Year's resolutions may be a good thing.

This week, we invite you to continue easing into the new year with our New Year, New Start 2026 Quest — a gentle, three-week intention and reflection warm-up designed to help you pause, reflect, and orient yourself before rushing into action.

Each week, the Quest focuses on a different theme to support that process: Reflection, Nourishment, and Embodied Intention.

This week’s focus: Week 2 — Food, Eating & Nourishment.
You’re invited to reflect on what your body and life needed in 2025 — with curiosity, not criticism.

The New Year, New Start 2026 Quest culminates in IntentionHaus™ 2026, our virtual New Year reset, taking place on Saturday, January 31.

IntentionHaus is a LIVE, guided experience to help you:

• Reflect on 2025 and let go with gratitude
• Clarify what you want more (and less) of in the year ahead
• Set meaningful intentions to guide 2026

The New Year, New Start 2026 Quest and IntentionHaus™ 2026 are two separate experiences. You’re welcome to participate in ONE or BOTH.

What’s the difference?

• The New Year, New Start 2026 Quest is a self-guided experience.
• IntentionHaus™ 2026 is an expertly guided, coached, LIVE experience, with different reflection prompts and deeper insights than the self-guided Quest.

As you make your way through the week, may you notice what has truly nourished you over the past 12 months and where you might offer yourself a little more acceptance and appreciation in the coming year.

Till next time,
Be well ❤️
