Late December and early January is a time when people start talking about their goals for the upcoming year. The problem is that most of us still have a lot of “stuff” we’re still thinking about from the year past. Before we can move to the next chapter in our life, it’s good to have a “reset” so that we’re ready for what’s ahead. Here are ten ways to recharge your mind, body and spirit so you can go into 2013 relaxed, renewed and ready to make next year your best one yet.
Follow These Tips to Recharge in 2013
1. Be Honest
You don’t owe anyone a lie. Clear your mind by being honest. Allow honest thoughts and communications to naturally flow in and out. Carrying the burden of keeping up with lies is not a healthy way to live nor does it attract healthy people.
2. Know Your Limits
Don’t take on more than you can handle only to complain about it later. Knowing your limitations will help you with time management by keeping you from over committing. Leave time for love and laughter.
3. Exercise
We often hear, “Exercise is good for you.” Well, it is. It’s critical to a healthy mind, body, and spirit. Work off loads of negativity by following a healthy routine recommended by your doctor or physical trainer. When you feel healthy it shows in your appearance and in the way you communicate to others. It’s not about dressing up your exterior and forgetting about your overall health.
4. Eat Right
Healthy foods help recharge your body and give you much needed energy. Look into a dietary plan that will guide you to eating healthier so that you feel energized. Cut down or out the fast foods and invest in cooking at home more. Know what you’re putting into your body but make it fun instead of a chore.
5. Make Time for Yourself
Alone time is good. It provides an opportunity for you to reflect, plan, and relax without interruptions. We are quick to say we don’t have time for ourselves but a big part of it is managing your time properly. Saying “No,” so that you can recharge is necessary. Try an hour or two a day to walk, exercise, read, or do something that doesn’t involve others. If you’re single, don’t search ...

Dearest Marala Scott,
I have to first say that I am truly inspired by your words. My daughter (14) and I are huge fans for several reasons.
I absolutely love every single thing you write, especially these 10 items you have laid out. I believe and strongly feel that these 10 things can be life changing and if applied – can set a solid foundation to anyone’s life. I pray and wish that as challenging as adopting these things in one’s life is, everyone applies and practice the things you have guided us with. I say this is challenging because although they make sense, it takes self awareness and accptance of the “bad” things in our lives that we need to let go to “refesh” for 2013.
I speak for myself, but I challenge and encourage everyone who reads your words to apply these things to thier lives like I will. From 1-10; really think, evaluate and apply it to thier lives, situations and live a happy, spirtual and prosperous lives!
From the bottom of my heart, may God continue to bless you and all your endeavors for 2013 and on! THANK YOU!
This is great advice and I look forward to a new year with some changes. As well, I love Marala Scott’s book Surrounded By Inspiration. I feel like I am learning something every day and her words truly inspire me. Thanks for sharing this article.

Great tips for the New Year. These are very inspirational, the one on forgiveness really hit home. Thanks for sharing your life story and motivating me to be a better person.
