Happy New Year! I've been listening to this podcast I really like called Happier and I have found it to have some great suggestions for how to increase happiness in my life. One thing we are doing is setting up 23 goals for 2023, along with a personal theme and a group goal, which is to get outside for 23 minutes every day in 2023. So here are mine:
