Day One

Forging Positive Habits
Our habits reflect who we are. By consistently performing actions that align with the person we want to become, you reinforce that identity. ‘Forging Positive Habits’ is a workshop led by the Head Life Enhancement Mentor Sujay Seshadri focused on understanding the blueprint behind our unpleasant habits and learning ways to break these destructive patterns clearing the path to create positive sustainable habits, shifting the course of our life towards greater physical and emotional wellbeing. When our habits are aligned with our values and long-term goals, we experience a deeper sense of purpose and fulfilment.
