Without fail January is always the month where we have the most cancellations and re-scheduling of appointments. That commitment to health someone had in December all of a sudden becomes too overwhelming to face.

Is it because people start to feel guilty about all the "bad choices" they made over the holidays? Is it the pressure we put on ourselves to set resolutions to make this year "better"?

Maybe I'm wrong but, I don't think it has to be that way. Let's re-frame our January.

Forget resolutions. I prefer to call it implementing a fast lane on the road of my dreams. You don't need it to get there but it sure does help.

Drop the guilt. Let's start being a little kinder to ourselves and ask yourself how you want to feel this year versus what you want to do.

Are you ready to create a healthier 2015? Here are 2 great ways that we can help:
