With the death-raining Covid-19 pandemic cloud, which devastated the lives and livelihoods of thousands of families W in 2020-2021, having almost vanished, 2022 was a year of recovery and renewal. Children and students are back in their classes in education institutions across the spectrum from pre-primaries to universities, and adults have transitioned from work-from-home to formal workplaces. Now in the season of peace on earth and goodwill to men, fresh buds of hope indicate that 2023 will be a big bounce back year for India.
Traditionally the New Year is a time to make resolutions, even if they are soon forgotten. According to a survey conducted by the San Francisco (USA)-based Strava Fitness, which analysed 98.3 million user-logged activities on its app, most people forget their New Year resolutions by January 19.
Nevertheless, psychologists, parenting and lifestyle coaches advise children and adults to make New Year resolutions and set goals. "For most people, following through their New Year resolutions is tough. But it's good to set goals and resolve to change for the better. Transforming resolutions into prioritics and goals gives direction to a person's life and enables self-improvement in chosen areas. Better still, for this new year I have advised families to set collective and individual goals for healing and bonding after the pandemic," says Ritu Hirani, psychotherapist, NLP master practitioner, life coach and founder of ShineSpace Life Coaching Services, Bengaluru.
Therefore in this special year-end issue, we bring to you curated actionable advice from a panel of reputed psychologists, nutritionists, parenting and lifestyle coaches to develop seven habits and skills to improve family life, especially children's health and well-being, in 2023.
