Did you know that only eight percent of people who make New Year’s Resolutions actually keep them? We’re not trying to discourage you. We’re just bringing a reality check to the situation.

There are lots of reasons why so many resolutions tank, but one of the top ones is people set lofty goals and then put way too much pressure on themselves. “I’m gonna not eat any more sugar this year.” Yeah, right. Do you know how many things you would have to cut out of your diet in order to make that happen?

In order to increase your chances at succeeding this year, we decided to recommend some health resolutions that are pretty easy to keep and will still make a major impact on your resolutions for well-being. Things that will help you this time next year to look back and say “Wow. I was in the ‘eighth percentile’. Imagine that.”

About Shellie Reneé

Just a woman who digs all things relationships. HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS, that is. I've been writing (professionally) for close to 20 years, including having two books published. I'm also a marriage life coach and doula. Sometimes I speak to large audiences or do radio interviews, but usually I'm sitting in my favorite chair, surfin' the 'net and penning stuff that I wish I had read in my early 20s.

Listen, I don't have all the answers, not by a LOOOOONG shot. But whatever I can do to spare folks any heartbreak, bitterness or straight-up drama, I'll devote some keystrokes to doing. 

That's it...in a nutshell. For the most part. Kinda. ;)
