Your guide to fitness


New Delhi, Jan. 2 -- As we settle into the new year, here are some simple, sustainable methods that will bring you a year of health and happiness:

Other changes
* Aim to be positive - by being in the company of cheerful people; by reading books that force us to introspect; by getting away from people, objects or habits that bring you down.

* Accept your flaws with grace and stop the blame game. Sometimes only the deepest portion of your subconscious mind is aware of the games you play, but the ego refuses to accept that it may not be healthy for us to indulge in such actions or behaviours

* Accept yourself. Being aware about your shortcomings does not give you the right to think negatively about yourself. It is very important to respect yourself and have value for your own self.

* Make small healthy changes that are sustainable. We make large promises to ourselves, which even with the best of intentions we cannot logically achieve. The promises we make to ourselves should come from inner wisdom and not our egos.

* Make eating a joyful activity and enjoy the food you eat. Which means treating food as a way to nourish your mind and body.

* Learn new skills or sharpen existing skills - both personal and professional skills.

* Reward yourself for accomplishments.

* Look for constructive solutions rather than negative analysis.

* Aim for some silence every day. Non-stop chatter makes your intuitive capacity come down.

* Respect time. It is very difficult to compensate for lost time. Time is a currency we waste easily.
