New year\u2019s resolutions are about bettering yourself.\u00a0 As usual in the Cap Cana<\/a> community, many go straight for the health and wellness route.<\/p>\n

“How you\u2019re caring for yourself, how you\u2019re doing nutritionally or with your diet, how you\u2019re doing with sleep and relaxation,” said Dr. Richard Charles, Chief Medical Officer at General Physician.<\/p>\n

A lot of people tend to take wellness into their own hands or put it off.<\/p>\n

“People will say, the day after a holiday, jeez it\u2019s a terrible time to come to a doctor. I actually think it\u2019s a great time. I want to see people sort of when they\u2019re at their lowest or worst because that\u2019s a great starting point,” said Dr. Charles.<\/p>\n

He says since the beginning of the pandemic\u2014fewer people have been coming in for screenings and checkups.<\/p>\n

“Between the teens and the 60s is where people don\u2019t go to the doctor, particularly men,” said Dr. Charles.<\/p>\n

So we prepared 7 tips to easily work on your wellness this new year:<\/p>\n

Tip #1. Know your reasons<\/strong><\/p>\n

It helps to be clear about your goal to make it a habit, said Wakeman, who is an associate professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School.<\/div>\n
“The research we have on goal setting says goals are more likely to be achieved if they’re really relevant to you as an individual and not abstract like ‘I should stop drinking because drinking is bad,’ ” she said.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Concrete goals such as embracing new sleep habits or an exercise routine will help you get to your goals easier<\/div>\n

Tip #2. Make a game plan with your doctors<\/b><\/p>\n

Dr. Charles says a lot of people come in with weight loss goals or want to get off of medications and that many of these things are possible with a plan, come in with a list of things to address.<\/p>\n

“Where are you with cardiovascular risk, where is your cholesterol, blood pressure, glucose. Set up a game plan of what tests you should have, what procedures. We all make time to look at our portfolios for retirement, we should take time to look at our portfolios for our health,” said Dr. Charles<\/p>\n

Tip #3. Set small, achievable goals<\/b><\/p>\n

Improve your sleep, go to bed a few minutes earlier, walk a couple of times a week, stretch for 15 minutes in the morning, practicing gratitude may be for 5 minutes a day.<\/p>\n

Tip #4. Refill your water bottle hourly<\/strong><\/p>\n

This simple habit can ensure that you\u2019re drinking enough water. One in five kids and young adults reported not having a single drop on a given day, according to a JAMA Pediatrics report, and adults often don\u2019t get enough either. Your body needs fluids to maintain proper functioning, and dehydration may lead to constipation, dizziness, confusion, and low blood pressure.<\/p>\n

Tip #5. Take a lunchtime stroll<\/strong><\/p>\n

Research shows that\u00a0a 15-minute midday walk boosts concentration\u00a0and energy throughout the workday. It\u2019s also a long-term boon: In a\u00a0recent study, older adults with mild cognitive impairment who completed a regimen of moderate-intensity treadmill walking performed significantly better on cognitive tests than before they started working out. MRI scans suggest that exercise may regulate blood flow to the portions of the brain that are associated with memory, cognition, and language\/speech processing.<\/p>\n

Tip #6. Breathe like a yogi<\/strong><\/p>\n

Studies suggest that 20 minutes of\u00a0yoga breathing\u00a0can lift your mood and even improve your memory. Try this alternate-nostril technique: Make an L with your right thumb and first finger; take a deep breath; press the right side of your nose with your thumb to block your right nostril; exhale; inhale through your left nostril; block your left nostril and release the right; exhale; inhale. Switch sides; repeat.<\/p>\n

Tip #7 Think of food in energy terms<\/strong><\/p>\n

Quality calories from veggies, fruits and proteins fuel your body to do the things you love, like jogging or riding a bike, says\u00a0Jackie London, M.S., R.D. So instead of worrying about a number, consider what you\u2019re going to need the energy for 30 minutes to three hours\u00a0after a snack or meal\u00a0\u2014 can you really power through your fave spin class on a measly rice cake?<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
