After the events of last year, people are holding onto any shred of hope that the world might turn right side up again in the next 12 months. If you’re the type of person who goes into a new year with boundless energy, use some of that motivation to start the year off on the healthiest possible foot. Here are some ways to do that. <br /><br />✓ Get outside<br />In season four of Netflix series The Crown, Queen Elizabeth (played by Olivia Colman) frequently tells her children, sister and other advice-seekers to get outside and go for a walk when things aren’t going their way. Her well-intentioned advice is usually met with chagrin from those she directs it towards, who feel their problems can’t be solved simply with fresh air and exercise. But Colman’s character is more right than you’d think. <br /><br />The series dramatizes the story of the British royal family, but it is true that the Queen is an avid outdoorswoman who’s said to be happiest at her 50,000-acre Scottish estate Balmoral. But those of us who don’t have a massive property in the Highlands to social distance can still take the advice to heart. As winter wears on and working from home, virtual school and Zoom gatherings continue, do the Queen’s bidding: Get outside. Bundle up, mask up and try to get some fresh air every day — even if it just means spending a few minutes in your backyard or on your porch. This is important for adults and even more important for children. Instead of spending your lunch break in front of your computer or scrolling on social media, put the phone down and go for a quick walk around the block. You’ll be surprised what it does for your mental (and physical) health. <br /><br />✓ If you want to diet, add — don’t subtract<br />This time of year means everyone you know is usually talking about a new diet — keto, Whole 30, dry January, you name it. And after many people turned to comfort food and Netflix to get through 2020, the pull of “new year, new me” rhetoric might be stronger than ever. <br /><br />But if you want to make sustainable changes, it’s easier to add healthful foods to your diet rather than subtracting whole food groups. It’s something dietitians have recommended for years, but it’s a good reminder when you’re tempted to join your friends in a Whole 30 challenge. Focus on adding more vegetables and water to your diet to start. <br /><br /><br />✓ Take your meditation to the next level<br />Scores of people turned to meditation to help them cope with the stress of 2020. Apps like Calm and Headspace saw a surge in users starting in April, and Headspace even began offering free content and complimentary subscriptions for educators. <br /><br />Using an app is a good place to start, but if you’re already a meditation devotee, consider taking your training to the next level. If it’s something you’d previously considered, but you didn’t have the time to do an in-person course, now is a better time than ever to sign up, because most programs are virtual. Unplug will offer a six-week virtual teacher training in April, or consider the famed Esalen Institute’s 200-hour virtual training, which launches later this month. The iconic California retreat is where Don Draper goes to start a new life at the end of Mad Men — and now you can learn from its teachers without leaving your home. <br /><br />✓ Plan a vacation (even if it’s in 2023)<br />Maybe traveling isn’t in the cards for you right now, so try another tactic. Plan a vacation, even if you have no intention of traveling until at least 2022 or 2023. Take advantage of discounted flights and hotel stays (and their generous cancellation policies), and give yourself something to look forward to. A 2014 Cornell University study found that the act of planning an experience, and the anticipation of doing it, was better for mental health than buying a new product.
