]]>Increased Hygiene
One of the lessons that we’ll definitely carry forward is the importance of personal hygiene. Washing hands more often, and cleaning and disinfecting surfaces in our homes on a daily basis are just some of the habits that will stick around
Online Shopping
Chances are that we’ll spend less time in stores in the future because we’ve realized that online shopping is reliable, easy, and very convenient
Home Fitness
Home workouts have become part of the daily routine for many people and research shows that most of them will likely continue to exercise at home because it’s cheaper, safer, and saves lots of time.
Working from Home
Working from home is also one of the things that we now realize is acceptable for both companies and employees. Even though it has some disadvantages, chances are that some people will continue to work remotely even after the pandemic ends.

]]>Start Building Habits
It can be frustrating when you’re not as good at something as you’d like to be, but if you don’t change the habits that affect your life you won’t do much. If you’d like to get in physical shape, the first thing you need is a habit to exercise 3-4 times per week without overthinking it. If you’d like to improve your overall physical and mental health, it may be crucial to replace the habit of sitting in front of the TV with a habit of going for a walk after work.
Start Saving
Saving a certain amount of money each month doesn’t necessarily require a bigger budget. You can start small—as long as you just start. As you see your savings account grow, it may motivate you to skip certain purchases and save instead.
Call Friends
You don’t need hundreds of friends to be happy, but keeping in touch with a selected few people can make all the difference in how you live your life. As we get older we tend to lose touch with people so make an effort to stay connected and it will pay off in the long run.

]]>Make Lists
One of the easiest ways to stay sane is to make sure you know what you have to do. Make a to-do list every day so that you have goals to accomplish by the end of the day. Seeing all of them at once will help you prioritize better, and checking completed items off of the list will make you feel accomplished.
Do One Thing at a Time
Multitasking can stress anyone. Struggling to juggle multiple projects and deadlines can be overwhelming. The best thing that you can do is to prioritize. Figure out what is the most important or time-pressing project on your to-do list, and work on that. You do not have to complete each project before moving on to the next one, but don’t focus on two at the same time.
Be Realistic
Know what you are and are not capable of, and set reasonable goals that reflect your capabilities. Many people go crazy because they set themselves unrealistic goals. Improve your lifestyle by being realistic. Setting goals that you can accomplish each day will improve your mental health, as opposed to setting unrealistic goals that will be left uncompleted.
Maintain a Routine
Maintaining a routine does not necessarily mean doing the exact same thing every day. Set yourself blocks of time to accomplish things. For example, decide that each morning, you will take half an hour to eat breakfast and do what you want and after that, you will do an hour of work. Making a schedule for yourself will ensure that you have the time to accomplish everything that you want.

]]>Awareness
You may not even be aware that you have a bad habit. If you’re constantly telling yourself that you don’t spend that much time on social media daily or don’t drink too much soda, it’s time to start writing down your actions so you can know for sure. Simply start keeping track of the habit you don’t like without judging yourself and pretty soon you’ll be able to tell how bad it is.
Find the Trigger
There’s something that triggers every habit and you need to find the trigger for the specific bad habit. Do you always light a cigarette after a meal? Identify that as a trigger and find a replacement—for example, drink a glass of water after every meal.
Avoid Spiraling
It’s okay if you don’t succeed on your first try, just don’t spiral into more bad habits and completely give up. Allow yourself the opportunity to fail and start over as many times as needed. Every new day and every new hour is a new chance to do something good for yourself, but you need to give yourself permission first.

]]>Thrifting for Clothes
Thrifting for clothes doesn’t mean that you can’t afford new fashion items. It’s a perfect way to get quality clothes in your preferred style at low prices and it has several benefits. First, you’re not creating any new waste. Second, you can find clothes you like regardless of the current fashion trends. And third, you don’t need to support fast fashion brands just because you don’t want or can’t spend a ton of money on eco-conscious brands.
Living Below Your Means
If you feel pressured to always have the latest trends and constantly improve your lifestyle, think about why you’re feeling this way. There’s no logical reason to constantly try to keep up with the Joneses and impress people around you even if you end up in debt. In fact, living below your means and saving a certain amount of money every month will bring you financial and mental freedom over time and that’s way more important than another pair of shoes that only look good in the photos but are very uncomfortable.

]]>Pushing Yourself Too Hard
Working from home has some perks, but nobody truly expects you to be more productive than before just because you’ve cut the commute time. Between work and all the amazing projects you magically have time for now, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. Don’t push yourself to do your job, renovate your home, read all the books, and watch all the shows you’ve missed—it’s okay not to do it all.
Constantly Reading News
It’s important to stay informed, but you don’t need to be scrolling through news websites all day long. It will drain all your energy and you won’t be able to do anything else, which will only make you feel worse.
Not Moving
Sitting or lying around all day is pretty bad for your physical and mental health. Go for daily walks for at least 30 minutes or try a light at-home exercise plan.

]]>Limit Sugar and Alcohol Intake
The foods that cause breakouts and other skin conditions vary from person to person, but it’s typically a good idea to start monitoring your sugar and alcohol intake. Note which foods are bad for you and try to eliminate them.
Be Careful With Cleansing
It’s important to cleanse your skin in the morning and evening, but you shouldn’t choose harsh cleansers or do it more often than twice per day. Even though it may be tempting to wash and scrub your face as soon as possible, this won’t give you the results you want faster; if anything, it can have the opposite effect.
SPF
Applying sunscreen is not only important during the summer. Harmful sun rays can damage your skin even when it’s cloudy, and if you start the habit of applying sunscreen now, you’ll set a great foundation for the summer.

]]>Here are the best self-care resolutions you can make this January that will improve your life and that you’re actually likely to stick to.
A Weekly Walk
Promise yourself that you’ll go out for an hour-long walk once every week. You can pick a day to walk back home from work or leave it for the weekend when you have more time, just make sure you don’t miss a week.
Turn Off Your Phone Daily
We can all designate at least an hour per day to spend offline. Turn on the “Do not disturb” mode and have a cup of coffee with a friend, read a book or cook something nutritious.
Morning and Evening Routine
There’s no skipping certain things in the morning and in the evening: you have to wash your face, brush your teeth, shower, etc. Turn those tasks into calming routines that will help you start and finish your day in a much better mood.

]]>Be Productive First and Last Thing in the Day
Cleaning up in the evening is probably the best thing you can do to feel better in the morning and making the bed in the morning is a great way to start the day being productive.
Fix Imperfections
When you first start changing your habits, you’ll probably feel overwhelmed by everything you can do better. Instead of trying to do everything at once, pick one thing you want to change and do it before moving on to the next.
Social Media Detox
While you can find inspiring people to follow on social media, you may actually benefit from taking a break. Unfollow all the “perfect” accounts that make you feel less than competent and give yourself time to slowly start building new habits.

]]>Not Knowing When It’s Okay to Spend More
Saving and living frugally can be great, but if you pinch pennies everywhere, you may have to pay more in the future. For example, not paying for a dental intervention can cost you a lot in a few months when the problem becomes bigger.
Living From Paycheck to Paycheck
Never spend everything you have before the next paycheck arrives. Having a savings fund is a crucial thing for anyone’s financial health.
Not Investing In Knowledge
Taking a course and learning something new may not bring you instant gratification, investing in knowledge is much more important than buying a new bag or a pair of shoes, no matter how pretty they look.
Procrastination
If you’re not a stranger to spending countless hours on your sofa mindlessly watching Netflix or scrolling through social media, you’re losing valuable time that you could put into working extra hours or learning a new skill.
