Newsletter | January 2021
2020 was surely a challenging year for most of us, and although we have faced unprecedented times, there is always a silver lining. As you reflect on the year, it is important to realize there exists a certain level of optimism nested within the pessimism of tough times. 

Consider all of the good things in life. Experiencing the bad can certainly accentuate the good in your life. Celebrate the overwhelming good and benevolence in life. 

Recognize that tough times are designed to strengthen you. Within the depths of hardship, resilience and wisdom can be found. Like a muscle, resilience must be developed. 

Take this perspective into 2021, appreciating the good, embracing the bad, and building off the resilience gained from the year’s challenges. Invest in your health and mental wellness this year and come join us at the club as we strive forward into a better and healthier future.
