This one really resonated with me. As someone who would always set New Year’s resolutions and bail on them, I decided to do it differently you this year. I told myself I would try for just one month to let go of something I’ve been considering giving up or experimenting with for a while. January was no booze or refined sugar. This month was no red meat/pork and also a low-spend month. It’s been really interesting to see my habits shift and change. Definitely had a bit of breakthrough of my own on the cooking front thanks to no takeout.

It’s interesting to see how a change in one area can create a ripple outcome we weren’t necessarily expecting.

I always appreciate your Substack and get such value out of it. Thanks for sharing 🥰

So happy this resonated with you Britt! Thanks for sharing, I think the monthly challenge is such a smart way to go about these kind of experiments. It sounds much more manageable letting go of one or two things at a time than overwhelming oneself with a laundry list of things to avoid or stop doing. It also sounds like a really effective way to gauge how each one affects your life and your body specifically. This work of deepening our self knowledge is just so fascinating to me, happy to know I’m not alone! ❤️
