2023 is the year to stick with your healthy New Year’s resolutions!
Many of us begin each year with enthusiasm, ready to start out the year strong. It seems easy to stick to our resolutions in the first few weeks, but what happens as the year goes on? We often find ourselves waning. Here are a few tips to help you keep your healthy New Year’s resolutions in 2023.
How to Keep your New Year’s Resolutions
Set Yourself Up for Success
You know yourself better than anyone. Set attainable goals that you can more easily stick with for the long run. Instead of saying you will run a mile everyday, make your resolution to walk for at least 15-30 minutes. Don’t cut carbs completely; instead, choose foods lower in processed carbs and higher in fiber.
Reward Yourself
It may seem silly, but remember when you were a kid and you filled up your chore chart and got a sticker or special treat? It was a pretty great feeling! The same applies to adults. Get a habit tracker or make a checklist and create a goal with a reward. Maybe 20 checks equal something small you’ve had your eye on, or 100 checks is a spa day. It will make you more motivated to stick to your resolutions.
Find an Accountability Partner
Having someone in your corner cheering you on can be a great way to keep your healthy New Year’s resolutions. It can be anyone from a spouse to a friend or even your kid. Partner up for walks or swap healthy recipes. Set a day each week that you take your child to the park for a walk around the lake. Get your coworkers on board for a resolutions challenge and check in with each over the lunch break.
Add a Chiropractor to Your Resolutions Team
Not only can a chiropractor be another great accountability partner, but they can also give you actionable steps and healthy tips for keeping your healthy New Year’s resolutions. Chiropractic is a complete system of healthcare that optimizes health by correcting abnormal spinal alignments. By helping the body to function correctly, it will be easier to stick to your goals. A chiropractor can also provide tips for nutritional health and exercise plans to fit your specific needs.
You may be challenging yourself to drink more water. Are you setting an intention for meditation and stretching each morning? No matter what you decide your 2023 health goals are, these are just a few ideas for how to keep your healthy New Year’s resolutions going strong all year long!
