Out with the “New Year, New Me” sayings! It’s time to embrace the New Year with the same you, just with better choices! Kickstart the year not just by getting yourself on track, but also to help stay on it. New Year’s resolutions can be so daunting as you are influenced by those around you that have set goals that seem so unimaginable and cause you to give up before you even start.
Practicing small simple habits can have a huge impact on how you begin your day and help revitalise yourself. Set yourself up for a healthier and happier you this year with these simple steps.
“If we make the effort-no matter how small or big-to cultivate gratitude daily, for the big things and the little things, we are ultimately happier and more at peace.” – D. Gary Young
How you begin your day matters
Even though it may not seem like it, how you begin your day is so important and it sets the tone for the rest of your day. Instead of waking up and going straight to your phone, or rushing around to get ready for work, begin your day with five minutes of you time.
Some things you could try are meditation, deep breaths, or stand outside and get some fresh air. If you want to take it to the next level, try a podcast or even a short walk or run.
Introducing small practices such as these into your day can make a huge difference.
What you drink matters
Everyone knows someone, or even is that someone who says that coffee flows through their veins. Maybe you just need that one energy drink to get you through the rest of your Monday.
Try making the switch and enjoy NingXia Red daily to energise, fortify and revitalise the body and support overall wellness from head to toe.
Your mindset matters
Life isn’t always sunshine, lollipops and rainbows – sometimes it’s rain, licorice, and clouds. Instead of focusing on the negative, take a step back, readjust your focus and think about the good. Practicing gratitude doesn’t just impact your mindset, it has a domino effect and can have a positive impact others too!
Take 90 seconds each day for a gratitude break. In that short time, think of as many things as you can that you are thankful for. Enhance this special moment with Gratitude essential oil.
How you end your day matters
How you end your day is just as important as how you begin your day! Minimise distractions by putting your phone aside an hour before your bedtime. Instead, enhance your bedtime routine by giving yourself a little self-love. Turn on your diffuser, pop a face mask on, read a book or even take 5 minutes to journal and reflect on your day.
