A reminder before the chaotic, frantic, hectic and wild winter holiday madness descends upon us! Those “new year’s resolutions” that alarmingly and frequently last only into the very early days of the new year? You don’t have to waste effort and time considering them!
Allow yourself some time to compose, eliminate stress, and relax! Relieve the pressure of the holidays and cope with the likelihood of inclement weather. Take a calming deep breath. Plan now to “resolve” when it is conducive and convenient for you and not the hysteria of a new calendar!
Instead of attempting ‘new year’s resolutions,” implement a short prioritized listing of “Spring Resolutions” that begin the first day of Spring, 2026! A calmer time in the year is also compatible with change as well as new lifestyle!
We are all aware that the transition from winter into Spring doesn’t happen overnight. The transformation is gradual – often at a snail’s pace – but the knowledge that it is underway is both exciting and encouraging. Sometimes, that alone provides us with the determination and the energy to accomplish success!
A barren winter environment begins to surrender to the rebirth of the Spring season. Again, another slow process that we welcome annually. Being reborn along with the springtime permits us to progress “hand-in-hand” towards a bright, colourful future of happiness, health and hope. A positive perspective to accompany our “resolve!”
Hopefully, the psychological and visual reminders for betterment and change are enough incentive for us to meet expectations and goals set for our Spring Resolutions! Every success is complete, one step followed by another!
Adjustments in our routine happen on a daily basis, both planned and unplanned. A new year or a seasonal transition is an opportunity and not a requirement. The first day of Spring resolution is offered as a suggestion. It is not obligatory as a bare practitioner!
In summary, let’s be honest and real. Most people begin each and every year “resolved” to exercise, get fit, and lose weight. Generally, this “resolve” is very frustrating and doesn’t last long. Avoid the bad experience and all the ensuing negativity expressed. Spring Resolutions remove us from the “mad rush” at our local fitness center/gym. The massive crowds shrink in numbers and the attention, attitudes and outlook is more patient, positive and relaxed. A better environment offers a better chance for improvement and success!
Naked hugs!
