#25 Why I Don’t Set New Year’s Resolutions - And What I Do Instead

from My Holistic Therapist · host Alex Field

In this episode, I share why I don’t encourage New Year’s resolutions - especially for women who already carry a lot of internal pressure and self-expectation. I explore how resolutions can quietly erode self-trust when they’re not aligned with our nervous system, capacity, or deepest knowing, and why what we often label as “self-sabotage” is actually the body trying to keep us safe.I’ll walk you through the difference between a resolution and an intention, why intentions create far more freedom and flexibility, and how intention-setting allows real, embodied change to unfold without force or punishment. If you’re ready to approach the new year with more honesty, self-trust, and nervous-system safety, this episode offers a grounded alternative to the usual “new year, new you” pressure.👉 Click here to learn more about the HEAL Method - my integrative, nervous-system-led approach to sustainable healing and change, starting up again this January 2026
