6 Steps To A Newer You

Wondering how to reinvent yourself?
Weary souls dream of all the beauty and
freshness that comes with new growth,
fresh starts and new chances. Nature is in
a state of constant regeneration…and this
can also include you. Here’s how to get
started today and present a fresh, new
version of “you” in no time at all!
Be Healthier
What could be a fresher start than a clean
bill of health?
What to do: Arrange that medical
checkup you’ve been putting off. Schedule
that dental appointment you’ve been
dragging your feet on. Whether it’s a
mammogram or a colonoscopy you’ve
been procrastinating about getting, start
taking your health more seriously.
Get More Organized
It takes effort to learn new organizational
techniques that not only clear the spaces
in our closets, but clear our heads as well.
What to do: Empty that junk drawer and
find a method to insure you don’t let it
get that way again. You can be a newer,
less cluttered person if you start today.
Stop Smoking
You already know the many reasons you
should rid yourself of your nicotine
addiction. Now all you’ve got to do is set it
in your mind that you want a fresh
new lease on life as a non-smoker.
What to do: Talk to your healthcare
professional about steps you can take.
Build Some Confidence in a New Area
Practice some new skills, or brush off old
talents.
What to do: Sign up for that ballroom
dancing class you’ve been dying to try.
Give Bikrim yoga a shot. Find a painting
class in the neighborhood. Adding some
new experiences by spring.
Do Something You’ve Never Done
Before
Maybe it’s finally getting your driver’s
license or learning to swim. Perhaps it’s
singing in the church choir or attempting
to run a marathon.
What to do: It doesn’t matter. Just
challenge your fears!
Lose That Weight
Imagine being excited about shedding
that winter coat for a change.  According
to some studies it takes about sixty days
to turn an activity into a habit.
What to do: Whether it’s working with
your Wii, taking daily walks on a treadmill
or swimming laps 3 to 4 times a week, if
you start today, not only will you be in
the process of losing weight, you’ll be
entering a new season of you with a great
new habit that’s going to help you keep
losing weight and looking and feeling
better.
New attitude, new you .
