Now that we are into February, it’s time to reflect on how our year has started. Are you sticking with your resolutions and achieving your goals? Or, are you muddling your way through the months of darkness? My January didn’t get off to a great start as I was sick for two weeks and I’m still not feeling 100%. Nevertheless, I’m a bit more motivated to achieve all the things! My point is, it’s never too late to find some motivation to make positive changes. This week’s blog post offers some tips for winter motivation and links to topics I’ve previously written about. Hang in there, spring is just around the corner!

Veganuary?!
