Do You Have 2020 Vision?

Do you have a clear vision clear for your health in 2020?

Do you have a clear vision clear for your health in 2020?

Another end of the year and a new decade is approaching. I always marvel at how each year seems to be getting shorter and it feels like we are in a crazy time loop.

Every year people make New Year’s resolutions and want to make positive changes to their lives. The recurring themes include a more active approach to health and fitness, travel, losing weight, relieving stress, finding a partner, going on an adventure vacation and spending more time with friends and loved ones. 

Unfortunately for more than 50% of the people that make New Year’s resolutions, give up by spring.

 

Let’s do something different!

 

What happened for you in 2019? 

 

I know that a lot of people got sucked into the news cycles of political drama that 

The media was a major distraction and a source of stress and anxiety for many people and I am pretty certain that it did not contribute to health and wellbeing.

 

  1. What goals did you set for yourself?

  2. Where did you make progress?

  3. Where didn’t you see progress?

 

Be gentle with yourself, it’s important to look at what things get in the way of you being successful with your goals.

 

Here are some tips on how you can be successful with what you want to achieve in 2020!

Pick a resolutions that you can work on everyday and will not easily give up on like getting better sleep, deep breathing, or drinking more water.

These are activities you can do anywhere and the benefits will show quickly.

 

Stay positive! Make a note of what you were successful at no matter how small. Success creates feel good chemicals that keep you motivated to do more.

 

 

Set a goal that will motivate you and connect it to something greater. 

Short term goals will get you some results but if you want a real life change you need to do it in steps and link it to a bigger picture. 

An example:

When someone has a specific reason for losing weight such as a wedding, that reason is what drives them and keeps them committed to achieving that goal. The problem is if that is their only goal then when the wedding is over they will most likely gain the weight back.

The solution is to notice all the positive things you experience from losing the weight, these are wins. Things like you feel better about yourself,  clothes fit better, your have more energy and peolple notice you look better. Use those wins and set another goal to feel even better and have greater qualtiy of life.

 

Cultivating health and longevity are the principles behind acupuncture and Chinese medicine. Getting regular treatments is a way of supporting the mind-body connection and will make a positive difference to you personally and the quality of life you want to have for as long as you live. 

My wish for all of you is to take charge of your health destiny so youcan have a healthy and prosperous long life and see you in 2020!
