Planning on *actually* keeping your New Year's resolutions? These items can help

Share

"New year, new you!" Sounds familiar, right? Not to mention clichè.

We all know the routine by now. You come up with this grandiose set of resolutions you swear to achieve within the year. But more often than not, you don't last for more than a few weeks because of two possible reasons: one, the resolutions are too abstract or general, and two, you didn't carefully think about how you’re going to achieve your goals before committing to them. Tough luck.

This year though, let’s change that. To help you a little in actually achieving your resolutions, we’ve come up with some items to aid you in your journey. And they’re all on discounted prices right now, so hurry and go to your nearest SM mall now! (But of course, be sure to bring your vaccination card and follow standard health protocols. The virus is still very much out there.)


Achieve your fitness goals


When working towards a fitness goal, it's important that you take the right approach. Whether you want to live healthier, increase your energy levels, or boost your immune system, there are plenty of ways to go about it. You can start by setting small, realistic goals while gradually increasing the intensity of your routine over time.

However, it's always best to consult a professional fitness coach to make sure that you're safe and comfortable while working out and that you get optimal results. Anytime Fitness is currently offering a free membership fee for new members and a 10% discount on monthly fee for existing ones. For more information, you may contact 0966-7120528 or 0921-3804231.


Learn a new hobby—like gardening


Gardening is an enjoyable activity that can provide a great deal of personal satisfaction, entertainment value, and health benefits. According to the American Public Health Association, "Being outside in the fresh air and sunshine is an effective way to boost your mood and de-stress. In fact, gardening has shown to be helpful in reducing the risk of depression." It can also serve as an escape for individuals looking for respite from their hectic lives.

Spend more time with yourself


How about a solo vacation? By going on a (post-pandemic) solo trip, you’d finally get to do what you've always wanted: spend time with yourself and explore your own interests without the burden of sharing your adventure with anyone else.

You can shop for travel essentials such as apparel, accessories, footwear, and bags at The Travel Club to score a 50% discount on selected items! P.S. You never know what to expect when traveling—it could be raining during your flight or even snowing on your layover—so remember to pack accordingly.


Invest in self-care


Self-care is the secret sauce to improving your overall well-being. It can be anything as long as it makes you happy and fulfilled. It can be as simple as spending time with friends and family, taking a walk outside, or even just sitting on the couch while reading your favorite novel.

It can also be in the form of caring for your physical appearance. Avail of three Korean Glass Skin Facial sessions for only P7,500 at The White Drip in SM Mall of Asia to get a bonus session for free!


Listen to wellness podcasts


While it is important to seek professional intervention, there is always a place for DIY programs that work on the basics of holistic psychology. Incorporating some simple wellness practices—such as listening to wellness podcasts—into your daily routine may help improve your health and enhance your happiness.

By listening to podcasts, you’ll be updated with the latest news about various topics related to wellness. For an immersive listening experience, cop the T&G Portable Speaker from Bavin. It’s currently at P500 off in SM City Consolacion.


Wear clothes that make you feel confident


A lack of confidence can be caused by many things. These reasons may include the fear of not living up to cultural or parental expectations, or simply because you feel unattractive. You're not wrong for feeling this way, but don't let anyone define who you are. Don't let societal norms hold you back from wearing what makes you happy and confident. You deserve to be proud of your outer beauty as much as your inner beauty.

That said, you deserve to shop for clothes you’ve been eyeing since long ago! Kamiseta in SM City Baliwag offers 50% off on selected items—from trendy tops to seasonless bottoms.
