2020 has been quite an eventful year, hasn’t it? The COVID-19 pandemic has turned the world upside down. Every living soul has suffered due to it one way or another.  But, in some cases, the year hasn’t been as bad as one might assume. In fact, many people may come out stronger, better, and more skilled from the other side.

Now we get that we’re not yet completely out of it. But, this year has given us the time for self-reflection and self-improvement. The time that we never had before. It has brought us closer to our families and loved ones. It has helped us appreciate the little things. It has shown us a new way of living life. All this wouldn’t have been possible without 2020.

However, we do need to take all these aspects into account and make sure that 2021 is better. In addition, we should also use everything we’ve learned to our advantage. Make ourselves better by investing some time and care for ourselves. So let’s learn how we can do all of that and move ahead together in this new year!

Be Prepared For The Unexpected-

If there is one thing that 2020 has taught us, it’s that you can’t ever assume that things will be as they are. It showed us that life is unpredictable. That no matter how well-prepared you are, it can still catch you off-guard. The only difference here was, the time-period was short and the changes were a lot bigger. Hence, it’s safe to say that we need to be better prepared for whatever is thrown our way in the future. Luckily, many people have been able to adapt to the situation and overcome the obstacles this time. Not as smoothly as one might have liked, but transitioned through this phase nonetheless.

Another way this has benefited us is that we’re better prepared for unexpected circumstances from now on. Even though many of us might have a positive mindset, we would still prepare for the worse. So if we do run into problems in the future, we will be more prepared to take the blow.

2020 has made us more proactive, productive, and prepared to tackle any challenge that is thrown at us. Moreover, this also helps us maintain mental stability by reducing stress and nervousness. We can take this to 2021 and start a new chapter where we are much more confident, calm, and cautious, all at the same time.

Importance Of Hygiene-

Cleanliness and hygiene are two habits that we’ve rigorously followed during the pandemic. We all have been washing our hands more frequently to reduce the chances of contracting the virus. We’ve also started using sanitizers for ourselves and on surfaces.

There’s no doubt we have understood the importance of personal hygiene and cleanliness a lot better during this pandemic. This is a great lesson to carry forward to 2021 and even further.

Importance Of Physical & Mental Health-

We understand that everyone has had a different experience in terms of health during 2020. But there’s one thing we can all agree on, that we all mean to be healthier in 2021 and beyond. Both, in terms of physical health and mental health. So let’s talk about each aspect.

Mental Health: Mental health and wellness have been major concerns this year. While some have been able to overcome it with self-care, others haven’t been able to cope with it. But we all are definitely aiming to be mentally stable during the coming year.  Now, if you belong to the latter then you must be asking yourself ‘how to improve mental health’. Well, there are several ways we can do that. 

Of course, we can get the biggest mental boost by being physically healthy, but we will get to that later. For now, the best way to improve mental health is by planning your mental journey. By reaching an optimum level of health that is much more capable of dealing with such major obstacles. That should give the perfect start to your journey towards mental peace.  Having a proper pathway that you could follow to achieve your goals will help you gain confidence. This will also improve your mental health.

You can also indulge in certain exercises that improve your focus, concentration, patience, and stability. Meditation is always an amazing solution, but that requires patience. So, if you can start with that then it will help you a lot. A healthy diet plan that includes fresh vegetables, fruits, and organic food also has a great impact on mental health. Incorporate these aspects into your daily-to-day life and they will gradually help you achieve mental wellness.

Physical Health: We’re sure we don’t need to answer ‘why is physical health important’. So we’ll get right to it.

It’s always a lot easier to know how to maintain physical health than your mental health. But it does require a lot more effort from your end. Follow the basics of exercise, nutrition, and good sleeping habits. Digging deeper into exercising, you can practice yoga (which is also good for your mental health), cycling, swimming, running, and any other form of exercise.

When it comes to nutrition, what you avoid consuming is a lot more important than what you do consume. Plan a balanced diet that provides you all the nutrients you need to keep up with life. A healthy diet should always consist of healthy foods like loads of fruits, vegetables, and fresh ingredients. It’s even more effective if you have organic food. Our range of organic Spices, Oils, Flours, Pulses and Mixes will help you make the most out of your meals while also making them delicious.

You can also work productively by monitoring every aspect of your routine. Magnifying on every aspect will help you control them and plan your mental and physical health better.

Plan For The Next 12 Months-

Don’t think of it as a resolution as you’re not coming off an ordinary year here. 2020 has motivated us enough to make the next year better. So, your planning for 2021 should be very adept. Ask yourself, ‘how to work effectively and efficiently?’ and you will find the answers yourself.

Apart from all the topics we’ve covered above, we should also plan our finances for 2021. Because all of these productive changes may put a load on you. And depending on how professionally progressive your 2020 was, you may have to plan your commitment towards self-improvement.

If you dedicate yourself to these steps and follow them with a positive frame of mind, you will have an amazing 2021. After that, the financial, physical, and mental sacrifices you made will stop affecting you. And by the end of 2021, you will be a far better version of yourself.

For now, we wish you a very happy 2021 and hope that we all have a brilliant year ahead.
