Taking Care of Yourself in 2021: The HOW to Feel Good about YOU

1/5/2021

 
​By Quinton Kiser
New Year 2021 graphic
So, it’s a new year.  It’s 2021, to be exact.  For some of us, it is a little hard to believe that we are actually in the year 2021.  I can remember when the year 2000 was an exciting, futuristic year that many people were looking forward to.  I can remember when the year 2010 was a vague year that seemed far off in the future, and I couldn’t imagine what life might be like when we finally got there.  But now we’ve arrived.  If that doesn’t amaze you (even just a little), you’re probably at least glad to be done with 2020.  That year was definitely a year for the history books, and I’m sure many of us are hoping that 2021 is better.

The good news is, you don’t have to merely hope that 2021 is a better year.  You can do certain things for yourself to help make this a decent year.  Granted, 2020 was filled with all sorts of things that most of us had little control over—COVID-19, a rancorous presidential election, Tiger King, and depleted store shelves.  Nevertheless, much of our well-being is still in our control.  We just need to take the initiative to self-reflect and decide specifically what we need to work on in our lives and how can go about doing it.  Here are some ways you can take better care of yourself in 2021 so that it is better than 2020.

Okay, the year has ended (and what a tough one it has been), and we indulged through the holiday season. Hey – we’re only human! But now we’re in the new year, and if you haven’t at least thought about what to do better for the coming year, you might be in the minority…lol. It’s time for New Year’s resolutions…hopefully ones we can actually keep.

If you’ve thought about changing your lifestyle habits to healthier ones, then you’ll need to learn how to get through the first 30 days, as implementing new habits can be challenging! You may need to know what to do differently, and what to expect while you’re implementing these changes.  ​

Positive Social Media Use: How to Create Positive Habits

12/30/2020

 
Picture of many different people using a variety of social media platforms
Did you know that nearly 65% of all Americans (hey, that’s nearly 2/3) who were polled just last July 2020 said that social media has a negative effect on how things are in the U.S. today? That’s scary! They name misinformation, hate, and harassment as primary reasons for this. (Cyber bullying probably falls under hate.) They are concerned about people believing everything they read on social media, not being prepared to discern between those who are just giving uninformed opinions and those who are actually giving positive, constructive information. While younger people in early adulthood were more likely to call social media a positive force, older Americans believe the opposite. Where is the truth? Somewhere in the middle? In any case, we should probably pay attention to how to create positive social media habits and stay safe. Then we can teach our children how to do it!
