The beginning of each year is an opportunity to set new goals and adopt new habits. If you weren't able to keep your New Year's resolutions from last year, don't be discouraged! Discover in this article some tips to help you achieve your goals.

Lose weight, quit smoking, get back in shape... during this period, it's not uncommon for us to make new resolutions that we unfortunately struggle to keep over time. It's not necessarily a lack of willpower, but more often than not, poor organization, goals that are way too high from the start, or a lack of support. So, we get discouraged, we put things off, and bang! Goodbye to good resolutions and see you on January 1st of the following year... Yet, many people manage to achieve their goals, so why not you?  

The 3 big New Year's resolutions

There are several types of resolutions you can make at the start of the year, depending on your goals, expectations, body type, etc. First and foremost, remember to prioritize instead of setting yourself 1,000 challenges that will be difficult to overcome. Take it one step at a time to avoid experiencing another failure. As with any project, you will need to take several steps before reaching your goal.

I want to lose weight and get back in shape

A simple technique is to break down your main goal into several specific objectives . For example, if you want to lose weight, start by gradually eliminating sugar from your diet and avoiding snacking. Don't deprive your body of food by adopting drastic measures, at the risk of getting sick. This can also cause the blues, or even extreme fatigue. Instead, think about eating a healthy and balanced diet , not snacking between meals and exercising.

To support you in your weight loss quest, herbal medicine and gemmotherapy are powerful allies. Choose draining plants that eliminate toxins and reduce excess water, etc. Certain plant buds are also able to eliminate toxins and stimulate circulatory activity. Other types of buds help reduce fatty tissue, combat water retention, and promote intestinal transit.

I want to quit smoking

Don't quit overnight, especially if your willpower isn't strong enough yet or your body can't handle the sudden change (lack of sleep, irritability, stress, fear of withdrawal, etc.). Fortunately, there are different methods that can help you gradually reduce your consumption. In this case, we recommend turning to CBD oil , which is very popular among people who want to quit smoking.

According to numerous studies, cannabidiol has many benefits and thus contributes to smoking cessation . In fact, the consumption of this product is effective against nicotine addiction. CBD oil also plays an important role in relieving symptoms related to smoking cessation (anxiety, lack of concentration, headaches, etc.). In addition, its consumption does not generate any side effects or addiction.

I want to get back into sport

Are you thinking about starting to run? Start by walking 10 minutes a day during week 1, then 15 minutes in week 2, and so on until you reach 45 minutes. After that, start running 10 minutes a day, then 15 minutes… Remember to track your progress using apps designed for this purpose. Depending on your age and health, you will probably need to ask your doctor for advice. They will be able to guide you towards the physical activities you can do.

To stay motivated, it's often easier to exercise with others. Practice with friends who share the same goals as you. Group classes also help you stay motivated and find support in your sports practice. If you can afford it, hire a personal trainer to benefit from personalized support to push your limits. It's true that a little kick in the butt from time to time can't hurt ;)
