Health Tip: Keeping New Year's
Resolutions
It's New Year's Resolution time! We all have good
intentions in the beginning of the year for making changes in our
lives. But sometimes, even if we are able to start putting those
changes in place, it isn't always easy to follow through until
they're completed.
That's because our habits are very strong--their pathways in our
brain are very well tread. If you have ever been discouraged by your
habits or inability to achieve goals, it is really not because you
lack discipline or talent. Rather, it is simply that you do not
possess the right brain at the moment. If you really want to change a
habit, you have to retrain your brain by forming a new habit. Often
in just 21 days of consistent practice you can develop the roots of a
new habit.
Here are some tips for creating a new habit:
- Make
a clear, measurable goal and then list three action steps you
will take toward it.
- Do those
action steps every day.
- Write
down your goal so that you can see it wherever you usually are
and reaffirm it in your mind frequently.
- Record
your progress and your thoughts about it in a journal or
spreadsheet.
- Pay
careful attention, especially in the beginning, to your
thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Is the habit you want to
change a response to stress or a substitute for something that
is missing in your life? Do not judge what you see, just make
note of it and accept it. This awareness will help you create
your new habit.
- Manage
your stress and emotions by focusing on your center, which
physically is two inches below your navel and two inches inside
your abdomen. You can do exercises to help you feel it better
and strengthen it such as tapping the area with your hands or
Dahn Yoga Energy Breathing.
- Give
yourself rewards along the way and at the end to encourage
yourself.
- Share
what you are doing with others, or do it with them, to help keep
yourself motivated.
Good luck with your New Year's Resolutions! We hope
you create the life you want by changing one habit at a time.
