The non-resolution resolution
BRIDGET BROWN | Associated Press New York — A new year is the time to set new goals. Yet studies have shown that most people don’t tend to uphold their New Year’s resolutions much past the first month.In an attempt to reframe the thinking around new year goal-setting, a new wellness trend has popped up online.
It’s called the “Winter Arc.” Here’s what to know. The goal-setting challenge was created online by fitness and wellness influencers, so there isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach or standard definition.
For many of those trying the trend, the Winter Arc involves utilizing the early months of winter to turn inward and get a jump start on their goals, with the intent of having them in place by the time Jan.
1 rolls around. It’s also meant to encourage participants to be extremely disciplined and rigid with their goals since it’s a shorter period to get them done rather than an entire year, or indefinitely.
