It’s that time of the year where everyone is making or by now, probably breaking their new years resolutions. Whether this is to diet, exercise more or just make more time for a bit of self-care, to relax in the bath with a face mask on and a wax melt burning. I worked at a gym reception a few years ago and the number of people that came through the doors on the first week of January was incredible but by February, a lot of people had lost the spark or just realised they hadn’t the time with work, family and their other commitments.
I have mentioned The way of the Tortoise previously before Christmas and I really like their approach to life. It’s not about big decisions and changes in your routine but implementing small changes and the impact they will have on your daily life. Positive habits are key to The Way of the Tortoise philosophy.
Simple daily repetition will create neural pathways in your brain that literally wire you for happiness. The act of consciously deciding which habits fill our day really can make the difference between living the life we desire or a pale imitation.
Mindfulness
Mindfulness is the idea that someone becomes very aware of the world around them and their role in it. It can cover anything from nutrition to spirituality and encourages people to focus on the present rather than dwelling on the past or worrying about the future. Implementing journaling can really help with mindfulness as you sit down and really focus on what you have achieved or are grateful for, however small these accomplishments may seem.
