How to rock 2025

Ready to make 2025 your healthiest and happiest year yet?

The new year and new goals go hand-in-hand. But all too often we go too big. Yes, it’s great to be ambitious, but setting big, overly bold or unrealistic goals does not always pay off. It’s estimated that 80% of New Year resolutions never come to fruition, and most people lose their motivation and commitment just a few weeks in.

This is why ‘going small’ can be the smartest move. Making mini goals can make things much more achievable – and as a result, your mental, emotional and physical wellness will thrive.

3 things to remember about resolutions

#1 Start with small tweaks towards healthier routines: If you aim to boost your fruit intake, add one extra side of fruit or vegetable to every meal – it will soon become an automatic behaviour. If you want to start exercising each day, put workout gear by your bed before you go to sleep – it removes one hurdle for you to get up and get dressed for a workout, and you have more chance of it becoming a habit.

#2 Choose just one thing: Changing your daily routine can feel overwhelming, so start with just one thing. For example, swap your mid-afternoon sweet treat for a healthy Rockit™ apple. Once you’ve made that a habit, move on to another lifestyle tweak.

#3 Be kind to yourself: Life can get in the way of your good intentions. If your focus goes out the window for a few days, don’t sweat it. Just get back on track as soon as you can.

Want some resolution inspiration? Check out these simple ways to fuel your holistic health in the year ahead:

• Instead of cutting foods from your diet, try introducing a new food each week. This will help keep meal times interesting – and if you’re focusing on wholesome additions, you’re less likely to choose unhealthy indulgence.
• Start exercising with others. Whether it’s a weekly walk with a friend or a regular group fitness class, when you move alongside others it feels easier and more enjoyable which helps you strengthen good exercise habits.
• Power up your sleep. Sleep is our body’s way to heal and recover, so make it a priority. Aim for 7-9 hours a night and it will help you stay refreshed, revitalised and feeling good.
• Spend more time in nature. Take time to enjoy the beach, the bush, or the park. Playing sports or exercising outdoors always feels good, but even just sitting in nature can unlock health perks.
• Make fruit your first pick. Replacing unhealthy snacks with healthier options is easier if you keep your fruit selection well stocked. Snack-sized Rockit™ apples are perfect for a natural energy boost, and they are packed with fibre, vitamins and antioxidants too. Keep a Rockit family pack in your fridge and you’ll find grab-and-go goodness comes naturally 😉🍎
