14 Jan Make 2025 Your Best (and Healthiest) Year Yet!
The start of a new year often brings reflection and a desire for a reset.
Maybe you’re thinking about how you’d like to move through this year—feeling stronger, more at ease, or simply more in tune with your body. Wherever you are, I’d love to share some simple ways to help you refresh and create lasting habits.
1. Set Goals That Fit Your Life
Instead of setting broad resolutions like “I want to get in shape,” try something more personal and specific. Think about what you want to feel capable of, like “I’d love to build strength for tennis this spring” or “I want to walk up stairs without feeling out of breath.” When your goals feel clear and meaningful, it’s easier to stay on track.
2. Build Consistency First
There’s no need to dive into an intense routine right away. Starting small with 10-15 minutes of movement a day can help you build habits that feel natural and sustainable. Over time, these small steps lead to big changes without the pressure of doing it all at once.
3. Move with Purpose, Rest with Intention
Incorporating functional movements—like functional core movements and exercises that mimic daily activities—can make a big difference in how your body feels and performs. And don’t underestimate the power of rest. Taking intentional breaks allows your body to recover and keeps you moving well in the long run.n.
4. Celebrate Your Progress
It’s easy to focus on the end goal, but don’t forget to notice and appreciate the small wins along the way. Whether it’s finishing a week of consistent workouts, feeling less stiff, or simply enjoying the process, every step forward is worth celebrating.
As we settle into the rhythm of a new year, remember that meaningful change doesn’t have to be overwhelming. With gentle consistency and a plan that feels right for you, you can create habits that truly last.
Wishing you a steady and strong 2025!
