Prioritize your mental well-being in 2024, the linchpin to success or failure, according to clinical psychologist Guy Winch. Experts, including therapist Nedra Glover Tawwab and clinical health psychologist Calvin Fitch, suggest resolutions for a healthier mind. Reflect on social media habits, considering boundaries and unfollowing. Reconnect with an old friend to combat loneliness and strengthen social bonds. Foster empathy by connecting with someone different from you, understanding their perspective, and reading their emotions.
Stop ruminating about work by turning unproductive thoughts into problem-solving questions. Engage in a variety of activities each week—pleasurable, mastery, social, and physical—to buffer against stress. Alleviate climate anxiety by committing to one small, positive action. Practice gratitude by writing a thank-you letter to someone who made a positive impact. Schedule dedicated “you time” daily, embracing activities that recharge you.
Lastly, check in with a mental health professional to optimize well-being in 2024 and beyond. Whether it’s a catch-up session or a new endeavor, therapists can provide tools for a thriving year.
