How to Break the New Year Resolution Cycle: Easy Tips for a Better 2025
As 2025 approaches, many of us are mentally preparing for our yearly ritual of making New Year's resolutions only to forget them within the first week of the new year.
This year, let’s break the cycle! 🎯 Instead of setting unrealistic goals, why not aim for resolutions that are both meaningful and achievable?
Check out my handy list of tips for a healthier, more balanced, and happy 2025. I am sure you will like it.
1. Focus on Mental Health
Let's face it: stress is a growing problem. However, it is something that may be reduced with little effort. Take a walk outside, get some fresh air, and appreciate the beauty of the world around you.
Want to put in a little extra effort?
Try walking barefoot on the grass or water. Yes, it may seem a little "woo-woo," but grounding (or earthing) has been shown to have therapeutic properties. Combine it with natural noises, such as the relaxing rush of a waterfall or the steady pitter-patter of rain, and the stress will melt away.
2. Rediscover the Power of Natural Light
Getting more sunlight is a free and effective way to boost your well-being. The sun emits red light in the early morning and late afternoon, which has a number of benefits, including improving your mood and overall health. If you're locked in an office or are continually indoors, you can achieve this using a red-light emitting lamp.
So don't be afraid of some sunlight. Even UV light has health benefits!
3. Get a Cat or Two - The Gorgeous Felines are Basically Medicines
Looking for a reason to adopt a furry companion? Here's one: cat purrs are therapeutic!
The sound frequency of a cat's purr can help promote healing and reduce stress. A cat is a wellness investment that also comes with endless affection and possibly a few knocks on your favorite vase. But hey, it's a tiny price to pay for a great healing energy. So get ready to enjoy some cozy snuggles while enhancing your health and happiness.
4. Grow Your Own Food for Your Body and Soul
Let's get back to basics. Growing your own food not only makes you more self-sufficient, but it also helps ensure you're not eating anything questionable (we're looking at you, over-processed snacks). It's also an excellent way to get your hands dirty, get active, and feel productive. In addition, collecting your own cultivated vegetables is really satisfying. Your mind and body will appreciate it.
5. Start a Community Library
Physical books are timeless, as is the power of information. Set up a community library where people can exchange books, ideas, and stories. It is an opportunity to help your community thrive and connect.
6. Learn Local Healing Practices Then Share Them!
Recent skepticism regarding standard healthcare, due to the inclusion of hazardous drugs, has prompted people to look for the wisdom of folk medicine, which has survived the test of time. The good news is that you don't have to go to faraway places to find these old treatments.Your community most likely has some natural healing traditions that could benefit you and those around you. Research, document, and create a blog (in English if you wish to share with the rest of the world). However, don't just go digital; print some copies and keep them for your community.
Knowledge is power, and protecting it in multiple ways guarantees that it is passed down to future generations.

7. Find Your Purpose and Make a Positive Change
Last, but certainly not least, discover your calling in life. I know it sounds cliched, but hear me out: whether it's a small personal goal or a larger, community-driven endeavor, the impact of making a positive difference is unquestionable. And here's the fun part: string theory states that the energy you send out into the universe eventually returns to you. So, when you do good, you are not just helping others, but also yourself. It is certainly a gift that keeps on giving. Why not start now?
Cheers to a brighter and better 2025! 🎆🥂

The work I do is driven by a deep personal mission, one that comes with its own risks and challenges. It requires a significant amount of time, energy, and puts my life in danger.
However, to be honest, the support for my work has been disappointingly low. At times, I even consider walking away from it all. The stress is overwhelming, and it’s taking a serious toll on my health.
After all, four years of constant research, pressure, and fighting against the tide is a lot for anyone to bear.
What makes it even more difficult is that I have no support in rebuilding my scientific career. My LinkedIn profile is still deactivated 👇
