5 simple lifestyle changes for a solid New Year’s Resolution
What’s December without committing to stick to at least one if not a few resolutions?
Be productive, wake up at 5 am, build a workout routine, lose more weight. While all of these are great new years resolutions to have, do we really stick to them all through the year?
With this in mind, we have decided to keep things SIMPLE in 2022. 5 simple and hassle-free lifestyle changes that are easy to commit to and will make a significant difference to your lifestyle.
Move
Yes! Move. In the world of desk jobs and Work from Home (or should we say, work from the couch?), our movement ends up being minimal or restricted. Make sure you get up once every 30 minutes to stretch or walk around. And if you’re in a creative job, then good for you because you know what they say about walking giving rise to creative inspiration.
Sleep
Here, we do not mean by hours, but rather the quality of sleep that one gets. A good night’s sleep will make all the difference to the productivity of the following day. Not just that. Sleep quality also affects your overall physical and mental health. To ensure a good sleep, reduce light pollution and exposure to the black screen before bedtime. And if you’re a coffee person then try to avoid coffee after the sunsets.
Sit Outside
All the working at home has largely restricted going out and thus, the amount of Vitamin D that we expose ourselves too. Make use of:
Lunch breaks to walk outside for a bit
Weekends to go for little walks or hikes
Local parks to just sit around and soak in some sunshine
Your balcony or backyard to sip on your evening tea
Desi Dairy
In Indian households, milk and milk products are ESSENTIAL. Switch to Desi milk and dairy products that are loaded with immunity-boosting elements that are beneficial for everyone.
Try the Mr.Milk app for hassle-free doorstep delivery and flexible subscription patterns to make this basic switch to A2 milk, a2 paneer, a2 ghee, and desi cow dahi.
Pick up a new hobby
The lockdown showed us how there are a million things to busy ourselves with. So many of us taught ourselves new tricks and picked on new recreational hobbies that gave us some respite from the paranoia. As humans, it is mind-boggling how many talents we can nurture. Picking up new hobbies and self-training can help one keep creative, build confidence, and if nothing else, just allow us to have fun. Water-color painting, cooking, baking, gardening, learning a new instrument – these are just some of the things that you can learn with the help of the internet.
So shake things up a bit with one or ALL of these 5 easy resolutions and welcome the new year with new hope and better living.
