This year, let's focus on attainable healthy habits that will be good for our mind body and spirit. Let's set some New Year's resolutions that will actually make us FEEL GREAT!

I'm done with putting myself down each year, telling myself I need to lose weight, work out more, eat healthier, etc...

Tips for maintaining your resolutions throughout the year

Mentally prepare for change. Make sure you stay positive, don't make big changes quickly, the change should be gradual. Build on smaller changes and allow room for error. Don't beat yourself up for making a mistake or not following through on your resolution.

Pick a resolution that will motivate you. Make sure your resolution aligns with your goals, priorities, dreams, and your aspirations. Your goal should align with your top priorities. Be as specific as possible with your resolution and break up your bigger goals into smaller goals.

Review your resolutions regularly, tell somebody about your resolutions, and if you fall off track, get back on quick.

Cheers to making 2020 the best year yet!
