3 Points for Improvements for 2022

It’s that time of the year again — a time where we reflect on the past 12 months to see how far we’ve come and at the same time, think about all goals we wish to accomplish for the upcoming year. Let’s all admit it, 2021 definitely taught a lot of life lessons and we are all excited to welcome the new year with a fresh start. The Goodwill Market rounded up a list of resolutions that can inspire you for the upcoming year.

Prioritize your health and wellness

Health is always a priority heading into a new year and maintaining a healthy lifestyle during this time of pandemic is more important than ever. Although consciously making an effort to prioritize your wellness isn’t always easy, it is essential to follow a routine. Here’s how you can do it:

• Plan healthy meals in advance: We all know that it’s so fun and easy to order takeout by clicking a button on our phones or passing by the drive-thru of our favorite fast-food restaurant. But eating on the go can lead us to consuming unhealthy food. Make your health a priority by taking a few minutes to plan your meals once a week. TGM offers a wide variety of nutritious food you can choose from — NutriBrown Rice, Gullon Gluten Free Dark Chip Choco, and Gullon Vitalday Breakfast Chococrunch that can be used as alternatives for your breakfast meal.

• Maintain a regular sleep schedule: It’s no surprise that a good night’s sleep is part of a healthy lifestyle and getting the rest you need may take a little commitment. Sleep and health are strongly related; not having enough sleep can increase the risk of having poor health. Lack of sleep can affect your health in so many ways such as mood swings, lack of focus, and weight loss. You can improve your sleeping habits by keeping your devices away and clearing your mind before going to bed.

• Drink vitamin boosters and supplements: As we continue to fight against the COVID-19 and its new strains, it’s vital to strengthen our immune system even more by drinking vitamin boosters and supplements. Protect yourself from the virus with Berocca Performance, a multivitamin packed with combinations of B-Vitamins, Vitamin C, Magnesium, and Zinc.

Believe and focus on yourself

Nothing is impossible — if you believe in yourself, success will come its way. Let’s start the year right by focusing on ourselves in order to stay motivated and achieve the goals we want to pursue. But of course, it is necessary to acknowledge what you really want to accomplish: is it about maintaining a healthy lifestyle, trying out a new hobby, or maybe stepping out of your comfort zone? You can start by making a list of experiences you’d like to have. You can also identify your strengths and areas you’d like to grow by writing them down in a notebook.

Reward yourself

You’ve finally achieved your goal and it’s time to celebrate! Yes, you read that right. When you’re trying to make a lifestyle change, it’s quite tricky to keep going when you have a powerful reason not to. Rewarding yourself after accomplishing a task in simple ways can go a really long way as it motivates you to work harder. The list of ways to celebrate after an achievement is endless, and if you’re in search of ways to treat yourself, here are some ideas for you:

• Make your favorite dessert: Put your aprons on, buy all the ingredients, and whip up your go-to dessert. This is a double treat: it’s exciting to make and you get to eat it after.

• Go on a vacation: Book a trip to the beach or go on a road trip with your family and friends to unwind and make good memories. Our tip? Don’t forget to bring your camera so you can take pictures of the beautiful sceneries of the place you will visit.

• Watch your favorite series: You’ve been working so hard that you forgot about watching the latest episodes of your favorite series. Put your worries away and take a break — grab some popcorn, sit back, and binge-watch all the episodes that you’ve missed. It’s never too late to catch up!

Everyone’s different. Remember to choose the right level of reward that will keep you going for your progress. Reward yourself with the things that appeal and motivate you because you deserve it. As the new year brings new beginnings and resolutions, it’s important to acknowledge what you really want to improve on. Everything that didn’t go entirely according to plan over the last 12 months can still be better in 2022. Just trust and believe in yourself because you can do it. Happy New Year! — (TGM).
