I know there is still time left before 2016 is over.

However we will be ringing in 2017 before we know it.

While many may be working on their to-do lists for the 2016 holidays, it is also time to begin thinking ahead for 2017 as well.

Learn how to be healthier in the new year #NavigateEnrollment #IC #ad

As the New Year begins to draw closer, I am aware that many will start to think in terms of resolutions for the New Year ahead.

Most (myself included) think in terms of mental and physical health for resolutions. As in, I personally would like to feel healthier both mentally and spiritually, too.

Therefore, I am happily dishing some simple and easy resolutions to being healthier in 2017 and beyond below for us all:

6 Simple Resolutions to a Healthier You for the New Year 

1.Turning off mobile devices more.

Let’s face it, in this day and age; mobile devices seem to be the norm. With these devices, it is very easy to stay connected at all times. But sometimes, for our own mental well being shutting down our devices or even simply logging off social media for short periods of time can help to create a healthier environment for yourself. Want to learn how to do this? Then read about how to shut down socially here.

2.Sleeping more and/or better this new year.

This one may be easier said than done, but honestly sleep is something that we all need. So, making a conscious effort to make more time for it, as well as bettering your sleep habits should go along way to helping create a healthier you in the upcoming year.

3.Make more time to workout more.

I know this is probably one of the top New Year’s resolutions for many. Why? Because working out and exercising is a great way to help get and stay healthy.

4.Eat healthier after the holiday feasting concludes.

It is true that holiday eating isn’t always the best or most healthy either. But as the new year begins, now is the perfect time to get a handle on your diet by making sure to eat healthier and more sensibly.

5.Have more fun in 2017.

Make time to enjoy life simply. This could be making time to do more fun activities inside and outside the home with your family or even enjoying some fun alone time, such as reading a book, catching up on your DVR, or writing in your journal.

6.Getting wise about your own health insurance.

All of the above are indeed ways to get and stay healthy in the upcoming year. But health insurance is also a vital and essential component in protecting your health, as well as your family’s for the year to come.

I, for one, am truly so thankful that we are members of Anthem for our own family.

Finding the perfect health insurance for your family is a huge component for those looking to stay healthy. Moreover still, it is so very important that we all better understand all the resources available to you with health insurance choices.

That is why Anthem would like all to be aware and know that right now is open enrollment season, which is the annual period when you can pick a new health insurance plan. This can further help plot out your health for 2017 and beyond.

Plus, Anthem has support resources  available to help all navigate their options during this upcoming open enrollment season and find a plan that is a good fit for you.

Take a look at the following infographic below to shed some more light on health insurance, as well as the open enrollment period:

*Also, linking up with Kristi of Finding Ninee for this week’s FTSF, where the sentence is, “It’s almost 2017, and…”

What resolutions will you make to get healthy in 2017?

    I’m with you on #1. I’m trying to take more time away from screens, especially on Sunday. Tougher challenge for me in the winter, when I am stuck inside. But I think I need to lengthen “time away” from looking at the screens and look up to the sky and trees a bit more.

    • Janine says

      December 14, 2016 at 7:30 am

      I know that first one is easier said than done this time of the year, but like you I am truly going to try to sign off more from my devices and just be more present overall. Thanks for sharing with me, Seana 🙂

    Yay! Can’t wait to kick the new year off on a healthier foot! Thanks for sharing, Janine!

      Aw, so happy to help with some healthy tips and advice. And thank you again for sharing, too!! 🙂

    Seems pretty simple to me, Janine, and I’m happy to report I’m on track for a healthier 2017. Happy Wednesday to you, my friend.

    • Janine says

      December 14, 2016 at 10:03 am

      Happy to hear Bill and wishing you also a very, Happy Wednesday once again now!! 🙂

    I’m with you on all of these! I had kind of a health scare this year and it has made me re evaluate quite a bit. The old adage if you don’t have your health you don’t have nothing is really true. Thanks Janine for sharing this!

    • Janine says

      December 14, 2016 at 10:04 am

      Jennifer, I couldn’t agree with you more about health in general and very happy to hear that you are doing OK though. Happy to share and thank you for sharing, too!! 🙂

    I want to write and read more in 2017. I miss it. I’m off a regular blogging/reading schedule, and it’s making my brain turn to chopped liver. Also, the working-out time is a biggie. I’ve been playing disc golf before work every day for a while. It puts my work day a bit behind, but overall, I think the benefit is significant. Great post!

    • Janine says

      December 14, 2016 at 1:10 pm

      That is awesome with the disc golf and I have taken breaks here and there in blogging, but I am always drawn back, as well, because I end up missing it way too much. Thanks Eli for sharing with me here.

    I’m all about more fun! As for less screentime, I’ve started reading before bed instead of scrolling FB. Like the olden days! I do wake up feeling better.

    • Janine says

      December 14, 2016 at 1:11 pm

      I love reading books before bed and try my best to do the same. Something about it just also makes me feel better, as well. So, once again we have something else in common, my twin!! 🙂

  7. Bev says

    I definitely need to make an effort to get off my devices more in 2017, especially taking social media breaks. My mental health needs it!

    • Janine says

      December 14, 2016 at 1:12 pm

      I am with you on my mental health definitely needing social media breaks from time-to-time, as well 🙂

    Glad I get my health insurance stuff through the school system but this is really good to know.
    I hope you have lots of happy, healthy moments in 2017. I can’t believe it’s almost 2017. Do you realize we all met in 2012!?
    Where has the time gone? AND, see how far you’ve come!!

    • Janine says

      December 14, 2016 at 9:13 pm

      Omg, you just blew my mind with how long ago we met and Happy almost New Year to you!! 😉

    Very good advice and suggestions. Let’s hope it’s a healthy and happy New Year for all! xxoo

    • Janine says

      December 15, 2016 at 7:17 am

      Thanks Aunt Gloria and Happy and Healthy New Year to you, too!! xoxo

    You already know that I agree with all of these!! Especially making time to workout more–it makes SUCH a huge difference in your day!

    • Janine says

      December 15, 2016 at 9:56 am

      I knew you would and agree about working out, too 🙂

  11. Kristi Campbell says

    December 15, 2016 at 10:16 pm

    With you on all of this but most especially working out. I’ve so been slacking on the gym and need to get back. It’s too easy to be lazy and go with more sleep (which I also agree with) but often I don’t do either and need to!!

    • Janine says

      December 15, 2016 at 10:24 pm

      Trust me, Kristi I am with you on both fronts and hoping to do more of both in 2017 now, as well. 😉

  12. Emily says

    December 15, 2016 at 10:27 pm

    I like that list, and most especially number 1. I so need to turn off my mobile devices more! It’s sad that I have to consciously think about unplugging, but I guess it’s a reality of our lives now…

    • Janine says

      December 15, 2016 at 10:29 pm

      I know #1 is definitely a reality in our lives and because of this really would like to try more in the new year to unplug more hopefully if possible, too.

  13. Julie Clarke says

    December 16, 2016 at 5:13 am

    I like that list a lot! Merry Christmas x

    • Janine says

      December 16, 2016 at 6:03 am

      Thanks Julie and Merry Christmas to you, too!!

    • Janine says

      December 28, 2016 at 6:46 am

      Aw, thank you Catherine and sending so much love right back at you and your family, as well this holiday season, too xoxo 🙂

    Hi Janine. I was just thinking recently that I really need to sign up for some health insurance. I haven’t had it for years. Your post is a timely reminder! I haven’t made any specific resolutions in terms of health and fitness but today I turned up at a family lunch wearing shorts and a singlet top because my neighbor had roped me into going for a walk with her. Usually I don’t dress like that at all so all my family were saying “oh I see you’ve made a New Year’s Resolution to get fitter!” I feel like I can’t disappointment them now 🙂

    • Janine says

      January 1, 2017 at 9:08 am

      Jane, I love your outlook and so happy that your family did indeed take note, as well. Thank you for humbly sharing this with me and also wishing you a wonderful 2017 now, too 😉
