37. How To Make New Years Resolutions And Stick To Them

TINAH Talks | Mental Health and Wellbeing Podcast

2025 if fast approaching, and it’s about that time of year where people start to reflect on the year just gone and consider what they want moving forward. In this weeks episode of the TINAH Talks podcast we’re reflecting on the pressures surrounding New Year's resolutions and how we can reframe “resolutions” in to “intentions.”
Often we can set ourselves highly unrealistic expectations during this time, so we are turning resolutions on their head in this episode and discussing the importance of being mindful and present, and how to create achievable goals and intentions instead of setting yourself targets that you won’t hit.
We dive into the psychological aspect of goal setting, the impact of social media on self-perception, and the historical context of New Year's resolutions.
