3 Ideas For Better Habits
The Courage to Be Authentic
Vulnerability expert, Brené Brown, on living authentically.
"Authenticity is a collection of choices that we have to make every day. It's about the choice to show up and be real. The choice to be honest. The choice to let our true selves be seen."

Finding Focus Through Meditation
Health psychologist, Kelly McGonigal, on the essence of meditation.
"Meditation is not about getting rid of all your thoughts; it’s learning not to get so lost in them that you forget what your goal is. Don’t worry if your focus isn’t perfect when meditating. Just practice coming back to the breath, again and again."
