It's a common tradition to make resolutions in the New Year, most often relating to our bodies and our habits. New Year's resolutions usually have an end goal of making us better people, but there's a reason many people fail to make long-term changes.

During today's episode on core beliefs and resolutions, Jennifer Wallace and Elisabeth Kristoff of Brain-Based Wellness explain why it's not so easy for us to make these grand, albeit positive, changes. They discuss the unrealistic expectations we put on ourselves, as well as the neurology of core beliefs, including how these beliefs drive the behaviors we're trying to change.

You'll learn why the human body finds change threatening, how you can create safety in change, and what more is needed in order to prepare yourself for change. Real examples will help you discover how to then integrate these changes into daily practice.

To help you get started, this episode ends with a visualization practice to add to your toolkit!
