Here comes the most anticipated time of the year again, the arrival of the New Year. To Malaysians, 2022 is definitely a roller coaster year and despite that, we should be grateful that we have gotten through this global pandemic. Now, let’s welcome a new year with a true celebration as the future holds hope in 2023.
To start a new year with mindfulness, we suggest 4 ideas of manageable New Year’s resolutions that allow you to make a healthier lifestyle.
Build a fitness plan
If living through a global pandemic has taught us anything, it's that we shouldn't take health and wellness for granted. In 2023, prioritizing your body, mind, and soul is a great way to organize your long-term goals for the new year.
By doing this, you can start lifting weights to improve your stamina, and build muscle. You can get a gym membership signup from the place near your workplace or home. Expand your sight on creating an excuses-free zone to improve both physical and mental health. Finally, optimize and get at least a sufficient 7-8 hours of sleep per night.
Explore new hobbies
If there is something that you have always wanted to do or try, why not make an effort to find out more about it this year. You can simply do this by cooking something new each week, reading more books, decluttering your place, learning a skincare routine, trying a guided exercise class, or volunteering for a social contribution such as
Second Chance Animal Society,
Assumption Soup Kitchen, and
more other programs.
Embrace new habits to challenge yourself
If there is some habit you already know you can do to make yourself a better version, why not make this year the one to start this and meet a new you? Perhaps you want to drink less alcohol to improve your mood and sleep and allow yourself to feel pure happiness without relying on it. Instead, you make remind yourself to stay hydrated with approximately of 2.5 liters water per day to have good skin and a well-functioning body.
Also, we knew cigarettes can cause health and oral issues by killing your taste, so why not dedicate yourself to quitting smoking and learning to appreciate green foods for a better physique and mind. Moreover, you could reward yourself with a new life chapter by having a new and clear smile, it simply can be done with an

Make an individual action plan
Without a plan of action for your goals, it is harder to take steps to reach them. Also, it is harder to feel motivated to try. From a clean room to a new hobby, there are plenty of potentially beneficial changes that await you in the year ahead. To achieve your goals, first, make a list of them. Number them in order of priority and create an actionable plan to achieve each one.
For example, you can plan with a list of steps such as to-do habits to yourself, building a menu, and crashing the gym if your top priority is to lose weight and be fit. Stick to your goals. Also, plan an achievement reward for yourself to give you more incentive to work toward each resolution.
