What Dr. Mike Evangel could say on
Keeping Your Resolutions:

- Taking a step in the right direction is a good idea any time of the year.
- Traditionally New Year’s Resolutions often end up on the scrap heap before the end of January.
- A valuable strategy is to try to not bite off more than you can chew and limit yourself to one New Year’s Resolution. Accomplishing one resolution is better than having 10 failed resolutions.
- After you fully adopt any resolution, you can always implement another at any time of the year.

Here are my top 6 New Year’s Resolution suggestions for 2022:

1. 1. Eliminate junk food from your diet.
  2. Increase the amount of exercise that you are getting.
    (Always consult a physician before starting any exercise program.)
  3. Try to get a minimum of 7 hours of sleep a night, preferably 8.
  4. Think more positively and not negatively about everything in your life!
  5. Minimize your exposure to toxins, including EMF.
  6. Spend more time outdoors in nature and in the sunshine.

Exercise & Sleep:

Your regular activities of daily life, like getting out of bed, brushing your teeth, and showering may feel pointless and overwhelming. Your energy may feel sapped too, making it even easier to skip these small tasks.

Energy Stealers and How Best to Deal With Them:

In a year plagued with stress and challenges, we need sound rest more than ever to function and lead productive lives. But this seemingly simple activity is problematic for millions of Americans. Why do we feel worse when we wake up, after a long sleep, than we did when we went to bed? It’s a complex story of individual physiology, lifestyle, health, and bad habits that exude in our patterns of behavior. It’s called ‘sleep inertia’ and it’s due to a lack of the brain and body, booting up in the morning.
