New Year Health Resolution
A New Beginning, Towards a Healthy Life : Dr. H. K. Kharbanda
Chandigarh 30 December ( Ranjeet Singh Dhaliwal ) : Every New Year gives us an opportunity—an opportunity to improve ourselves and to keep our body and mind healthier, more balanced, and more disciplined. This time, the resolution should be one that brings real change to our lifestyle, because health is the greatest wealth.
My New Year Health Resolution
I pledge that:
1️⃣ I will move my diet closer to nature. I will give priority to home-grown vegetables, fruits, and organic, local, fresh food items.
2️⃣ I will stay away from canned, bottled, packaged, and processed foods that contain chemicals, preservatives, and excess sugar or salt.
3️⃣ I will make maximum use of Shridhanya – the five millets (Kodo, Foxtail, Barnyard, Brown Top, and Little millet) in my diet and gradually reduce the consumption of rice, wheat, and their products.
4️⃣ I will avoid non-vegetarian food, alcohol, sugar, excessive tea and coffee, tobacco, dairy products, intoxicants, and fried foods.
5️⃣ I will choose food not on the basis of taste alone, but on the basis of purity, simplicity, and nutrition.
6️⃣ I will not only change what I eat, but also improve my eating habits—eating meals on time, especially finishing dinner before 7 PM; chewing food slowly; and learning to recognize emotional hunger.
Why Are These Resolutions Necessary?
Because staying healthy is the most important thing—health is the foundation for family, work, and fulfilling dreams.
It is wrong habits that make the body ill. Giving them up itself is an 80% victory.
Natural food—unprocessed and chemical-free—is made for the human body. Packaged food is made only for the market.
Lifestyle Change Is the Real Goal
Walk, do yoga, dand-baithak, or push-ups for 20–30 minutes daily
Sleep 7–8 hours every day
Reduce mobile and screen time
Drink sufficient water
Give time to mental peace—meditation and pranayama
Finally – My Promise
I will respect my body. I will feed it only what nature has given. This year, I will become a better, healthier, and more energetic version of myself. This resolution is not for just 7 days, but for a lifetime.
