Thank you for this! I think #3 will be important for me because I do have a couple of body-adjacent goals for 2024, namely, doing yoga regularly and continued sobriety from alcohol (which I started back in November).

Thank you for this! I think #3 will be important for me because I do have a couple of body-adjacent goals for 2024, namely, doing yoga regularly and continued sobriety from alcohol (which I started back in November). I'm trying to shift my outlook from restriction to making room for other, wonderful indulgences. Ex.: I drank 3 Shirley Temples while bowling last week and got to remember how good they are. Seriously! Omg, they are delicious! And I cannot wait to have more lemonades and sparkling ciders and other fun drinks that were pushed out of my life because I was always reaching for a cocktail. And with yoga I can indulge in the feelings of peace and power that come from moving through the poses, without thinking of my appearance. (Though I still have insecurities that come to the surface! Working on it!)
Huge congrats on your sobriety -- that's amazing! And I love the reframe of, what are you making space to have MORE of vs what are you cutting out. There is so much potential for joy there.
Omg I LOVE a Shirley Temple!! Congratulations on your sobriety – I am cutting way back on my drinking too (doing a dry-ish December and January) and I have been enjoying Sprite a ton!
