I have 3 goals for my 2015 journey, as well as some aims and things I hope to achieve over the course of the year.
1. A clearer mind
This year is the time when I will start to take active time out of my day and schedule to reflect, and take care of my mind. I know I can make time for this, after thinking about it and starting work on this for a few days I feel happy and energised. Often through music, meditation or writing I will learn the best ways to practise mindfulness and benefit from this.
2. An enjoyable routine
For the first time in a long time, my life shouldn’t get uprooted this year, and I believe this will be a good thing for me. I get bored easily, I always need to be doing something and so a routine will be an excellent way to channel this. I want to take my first goal into consideration as part of this routine, as well as nutrition (especially getting back into a kitchen of my own, and being more regimented in my diet), exercise, and making sure that the way I choose to live this routine works for me.
3. Physical wellbeing
Really, all three goals go hand in hand. Here I want to find a ‘diet’ that suits me, one that I might take from a number of sources and make my own, and one that I want to follow and not just feel obliged to.
Honestly, I don’t like typical gym exercise. I enjoy walking, cycling and swimming and will do more of this going forward. I also want to strengthen myself by having more involvement in yoga and core exercises.
I also intend to do the following. One way or another, they all seem to fit into my goals above:
- Cook experimentally and discover new and healthy meals
- Learn how to meditate correctly
- Enrol in yoga classes near my new home
- Find a way to keep routine when travelling with work
- Spend 2 weeks in France learning about language & food
- Spend some time trying out different diets (wheat free, dairy free, vegan)
- Give some serious thought to who I admire and why
- Find my stress triggers and learn how to deal with them
- Write more letters
- Find a new exercise that I really enjoy
