Rather than a New Year Resolution how about a ‘coming out of lockdown resolution?’

Maybe you were zooming people and now have the chance to see them face to face. Did you spend less? Were you happy with what you have and gave up on wanting more as the way to happiness.

It will be easy to lose the positives of lockdown and move onto another normal. Make sure you make a resolution to keep what was helpful. The old normal was Ok but we can move to a better normal and keep the benefits of an enforced lockdown

Maybe list the benefits and decide how to behave to make them habits.
