Sami Mansfield: How you start January determines the momentum for your 2025

Sami Mansfield, Founder of Cancer Wellness for Life, shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Sluggish. Unmotivated. Ready for a change.

If this sounds like your post-holiday mindset, it’s time to take control. How you start January determines the momentum for your 2025.

Here’s how lifestyle medicine can get you started on track for the new year!

Micro-movements matter Try 30 seconds of movement every hour—it’s a game-changer for energy.
Hydration is key: Drink water as soon as you wake up to set the tone for your day.
Smart swaps for cravings: Replace holiday treats with fruit to reset your habits.
Protein fuels everyone and drives hunger away.
Declutter and refresh: Say goodbye to holiday leftovers, pantry treats and sweets and say hello to fresh beginnings.

Commit to these small but mighty habits and lean into a supportive community for accountability.
