New Years Resolutions

I know I am a few days late, but the beginning of the new year is an excellent opportunity to reflect and create goals for yourself on how you would like the next year to unfold. Goals or resolutions can be a powerful tool to motivate a person to enact change and improve their life, and stick with it. While often times New Years resolutions seem to dwindle off a few weeks into the new year, writing them down and showing them to other people can help hold you accountable and motivated to stick with them. 
Here are some of my resolutions and goals for 2015:



  1. This year, I want to allow myself to be truly happy, without excuse or reason. Just because I am. 
  2. I also want to let myself by sad, and allow myself to feel it instead of suppressing or pushing it away
  3. I want this to be there year where I make real, huge, positive gains in my recovery. Im talking 6 months to a whole year without purging, weighing myself, or consciously hurting myself in any way. This will be the year recovery gets real and true for me. 
  4. I want to begin to really love my body this year. I know it might be unrealistic to think I can truly love my body in a years time, but I want to try, and I want to get as close as I can.
  5. I want to write every single day.
  6. I want to help people every day in any small way I can.
  7. I want to stop this year from judging people for things that I wouldn't want to be judged for. Unfounded gossip or judgment is never good, and is only painful and harmful to all involved, and I want to love people for their flaws, rather than judge them on them.  
  8. I want to exercise because it feels good, and I want to treat my body well. Not to lose weight, or as punishment for eating or treating myself.
  9. I want to learn to communicate what I truly want and need, and learn to say no, instead of putting up with things I might not want just to make other people happy.
  10. I want to put myself first this year, and to treat my mind, body, and soul, with the love and respect they deserve. 

What are your New Years Resolutions lovelies?
