Finally – Realistic Mantras for 2023

Holy moly, 2022 was something. Having said that, every year before that was just as bad in their own special way.

Want a little ‘serenity now’ phrase to repeat to yourself in the everyday challenges that are definitely on the way? 2023 will be another shitshow of a year, so repeat after me…

2023 on Repeat

  • Do more things that make you happy. If it doesn’t, do less of it.
  • Go ahead and post your gym session to Instagram. Be proud of your progress.
  • Be proud of recognizing the steps to becoming happier, and taking them, even if they’re small.
  • Trim negativity and people whose words bring you down. Later, Becky!
  • Most people aren’t going to be happy that you’re changing – because it reminds them that they’re not.
  • You need you. We need you.
  • Therapy is cool. Therapy is useful.
  • If you want to find your community, get outside and shovel your neighbour’s snow.
