    2025 - the year of letting go

    This year instead of wanting to take on new habits and do more I want to let go of things that are holding me back. In true Health Fix style it’s all about Too Little vs Too Much and I am shedding the too much bits! Toxic behaviours by others, phones in the morning, all or nothing and forgiveness all feature.
