New Year, New You: New Year’s Resolutions That Will Help Enhance Your Life

December 30, 2019

Making resolutions for the upcoming year gives you a way to focus on what you want to accomplish. By laying the framework for your year, you can succeed in meeting your goals. Here are a few great resolutions that will make your life better.

Clean Your House Regularly

You may be one of those people who enjoys cleaning or you may be someone who avoids it when possible. Either way, cleaning your house regularly can enhance your life in a variety of ways. Regular cleaning means you are less likely to deal with mold, bugs, and other problems that require time and money to fix. Dusting regularly can help you if you suffer from allergies and asthma. Additionally, living in a house with less clutter can even improve your mental health. To reduce the number of items you have to clean or organize, get rid of anything you aren't using. When going through old papers and documents, be sure to always shred mail that contains personal information instead of throwing it away. This will lessen your cleaning load.

Eat Healthier

Don't fall for the latest trend diet that rolls around in January. Set a resolution to simply eat healthier all year long. Using this resolution as a guide will help you make good eating decisions without feeling like you are being deprived. Try to eat whole foods, as opposed to processed foods, and make a meal plan each week so you purchase the right ingredients for your meals. Advance planning is key when you are trying to stick to a healthy eating plan. Eating a healthy diet can reduce your risk of developing chronic diseases and also help you live longer with more energy, focus, and purpose. The most important thing is to make a meal plan that works best for you. Everyone’s bodies are different and while you do want to cut out unhealthy things, don’t be afraid to let yourself have the occasional treat. It’s possible to eat healthy and still be able to enjoy yourself.

Get Moving

You don't have to commit to running a marathon. Simply make a resolution to move more often throughout the day to see improvements in your health. So much of life today is based around staring at a computer screen, so make intentional efforts to move as often as you can. Park farther away from a store and walk. Use a bicycle to run errands instead of your car. Plan to walk at least 30 minutes every day to calm your mind while increasing your heart rate. Besides being great for your physical health, regular movement can help your mental health. Anxiety and depression symptoms can be reduced with exercise.

The new year is a great time to start over. These simple resolutions can change your life for the better in the year to come. Take the necessary steps to enhance your daily life and enjoy the benefits.
