With the turning of every new year, people all over the world are resolving to do things different in 2011. Lose weight, exercise more, etc. whatever they may be, THIS is always the year that they’re going to happen, right? Do you find yourself making the same resolutions, year after year? While everyone has good intentions, we all need a little (or a lot) of help sometimes!
What are your goals in 2011? What is your plan of action to achieve these goals? If you don’t know where to start or have too many goals to tackle at once, try this step by step “action plan” to achieving your goals. Mind you, this is a very distilled version. First, write your goals down and place them somewhere that you will see them everyday–next to the bathroom mirror, at your desk, in the kitchen, etc. Next, break down the year into smaller increments of time and determine where in your journey you’d like to be in, say, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months. Lastly, make a note/appointment with yourself at these time increments (in mid-February), to check-in with yourself and see if you’re staying on path. It’s not brain surgery, but for these changes or resolutions to “stick”, it takes some planning and work. Visualize yourself achieving those goals (15 pounds lighter in a bikini this summer) and surround yourself with supportive people. Share your goals–this makes you more accountable!
If you’re yearning to feel better, lose weight and have more energy, I hope you’ll join me for a 4 week “Sugar Cleanse”, starting January 31! I will be available and will offer E-mail support, recipes, and guidance through the 4 weeks. The “e-support” will also be accompanied by a weekly conference call (which will occur at night, after the kiddoes are in bed…and will be recorded for those who can’t make the call). Gradually, over 4 weeks, you’ll understand the role sugar plays in your day-to-day life and how by decreasing it, you’ll actually balance your mood, lose weight, and gain energy! Please contact me at getwellwithkendra@gmail.com if you’re interested! This is a great way to jump start any wellness “resolutions” you may have!
