Habit Shifts for Your New Year

By: Jamie Boyle

Despite Andy Williams’ crooning claim that Christmas is “the most wonderful time of the year,” I actually find the New Year to be a more convincing competitor for the moniker. At the beginning of the year, everything is new, fresh, clean, and full of possibility.

Whether you’ve made a New Year’s Resolution or are looking to change up your habits, there are military organizations of every size, influence, and locale to help you. If your goals are related to your overall physical and mental health, wellness, and sense of community, look into the following organizations.
