Happy New Year, candy lovers!
January often comes with a newfangled outlook for the year ahead, but it doesn’t have to. After all, you’re the same awesome “you” whether you tackle a long list of goals or not. In 2022, we challenge you to champion the small things! If you have a few health or well-being goals to crush, we’ll be sharing ideas to help you crush them. Working on your well-being can, in fact, be fun.
So let’s not set goals that send us into fear mode. Let’s scrap social pressures and focus on the small daily promises you make to yourself. This might include waking up just five minutes earlier, writing a couple sentences in a journal each week, drinking a few glasses of water each day, or practicing mindful breathing to combat stress.
Small but measurable promises are a great way to promote self-trust, and they’ll be beautifully unique to each of us. Not sure how to start picking your promises? Check out the 4-7-8 breathing method to see if it’s a fit for you. <3
Here’s another great way to channel some feel-good energy: find a new activity. List a few activities you’ve been considering, all of the “I’d love to try this!” things you can think of. Forget about the “I probably should do this” list, and go with what brings you joy. With that in mind… what would you love to try?
Here are a couple of ideas to get things going – many may be available virtually:
- Take an art or music class
- Attend a play or musical
- Visit a museum or art exhibit
- Host a game night
- Plan your dream trip
- Purchase tickets to see your favorite sports team
- Make your own candles or soap
Whatever you do, Torie & Howard is here for a little sweet encouragement along the way.
All the best to you in 2022.
