"A fresh, inviting journey into stories and research that demonstrate how our mindsets can transform our experience of winter and, as a result, our lives year-round. Kari Leibowitz has written a practical guide to harnessing our mindsets to help us find meaning in darkness and difficulty. This book offers essential strategies for turning life's challenges into opportunities for growth."
—Carol Dweck, renowned psychologist and bestselling author of Mindset
"How to Winter is one of the most fascinating and transformative books I've read in a long time. Leibowitz offers a brilliant examination of how mindsets shape our experiences, a rollicking travelogue of her own adventures, and a life-changing guide to finding joy and meaning during the darkest months of the year. This is a stunning debut from a major new thinker."
—Daniel H. Pink, New York Times bestselling author of When, Drive, and The Power of Regret

Research
Research
Mindsets have the potential to influence not only our psychological well-being, but our physical health as well. My research seeks to understand and harness the power of mindset to improve health, wellbeing, and performance. By understanding the power of mindset, we can improve our ability to help us do everything from managing chronic illness to finding the opportunities in winter.
Writing
I'm dedicated to helping people live fuller, happier lives by writing about psychology research transparently, honestly, and compellingly. Psychological research has the power to transform our lives - but only if we can access it.
