Dr Manisha Karmarkar, CEO – DPU Super Specialty Hospital, Pune, says, “In the journey towards a healthier and happier life, the importance of setting realistic goals cannot be overstated. Navigating the complex landscape of wellness when approaching health objectives requires a balanced and practical mindset.”
Dr Manisha believes that evaluating one’s current health index is the first step, because it is only when you’re aware of where you currently stand that you will be able to chart the path to where you want to go. “This self-awareness is crucial for setting realistic goals that are tailored to your unique circumstances, ensuring that your journey is both personalised and achievable.”
She shares some tips for general wellness we can all adopt.
Embrace Small Steps
Learn to recognise that significant change takes time, and break your larger health goals down into smaller, more manageable steps. This will ensure that your health goals remain realistic. Daily incremental improvements produce lasting results, which, in turn, pave the way for transformative results.
Prioritise Balance
A balanced approach in all aspects of wellbeing – be they nutrition, exercise, or mental health – is the core of a sustainable wellness journey. Avoid extremes to ensure your goals are not only attainable but also adaptable to the demands of daily life.
