LIVE LIFE BETTER: New Year's Resolutions Trends & Tips For Making Yours

In this episode of Live Life Better, host Nanette Wiser looks at the science behind resolutions, how they can help or stress us out and suggestions for making and keeping yours from health to relationships.  Making resolutions can help our mental health, but  but pursuing them may not be easy so be kind to yourself and take baby steps, leading with optimism and hope. "Leading into 2025, 33% of Americans are making a mental health new year’s resolution, which is a 5% increase from last year and is the highest result the American Psychiatric Association has seen since it began polling on the question in 2021. Younger people in general were more likely to report making a mental health resolution, with 48% of 18-34-year-olds saying so, versus 13% of those 65 or older. Four out of five individuals (81%) reported making any kind of new year’s resolution, with the rest of the categories polled largely remaining flat. Two-thirds of Americans (67%) graded their mental health in 2024 as excellent or good, while 25% said it was fair, and 7% said their mental health was poor. The older people were, the more likely they were to report good or excellent mental health: 84% of people over 65 said so, contrasted with 60% of those ages 18-34.  https://www.psychiatry.org/News-room/News-Releases/More-New-Years-Mental-Health-Resolutions
