New Years Goals 2016

Happy New Year! What a beautiful start to 2016! Without further ado, here is a look at five goals for 2016! (Can I just say ditto to my 5 goals of 2015 and call it the end? The end.)

 

Sleding right into the New Year (with my beautiful and sweet niece, Alagna).

1. Take deep breaths. Live in the present. Connect breath to meditating. And praying. Follow my breath. In and out. Release. Relax. Rebirth.

 

Sound of ocean (meditative) + Sound of kids (less so) = True Bliss.

2. Become confident in who I am. Savor my being and who I am. Don’t get distracted by who I am not or who I will never be. Love myself for who I am.

 

This is me. And me in a bikini. There you have it...nothing ELSE to show. Full on, Anika Yael Natori. High waisted bikini briefs and no boobs. Bring it on, 2016.

3. Eat less sugar. I KNOW AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN, but come on body, LISTEN AND DON’T EAT SO MUCH FLIPPING DESSERT (note: I realize the irony that I am eating a big fat ice cream bar in the above picture).

 

Better to eat Fast Food, like we did for Christmas Day Dinner (No joke...oh my what is happening!!!)

4. Embrace the now. Say no more often. Commit when I say yes. Don’t complain. Savor the present.

 

My past, present, and future. All rolled up into three people.

5. Lift more weights. Drink more water. Take hot baths. Eat more greens. Just be the best mother, wife, daughter, sister, and friend that I can be. And be happy while putting forth my best effort.

 

Best pals.

Whoa, way to go and expose myself to the world wide web. HELLLOOOOO internet! But truly, it is a New Year, and an opportunity to grow, learn, and become better and happier. Thank you for reading! And now tell me, what are your goals for 2016?

  1. Love your bathing suit! Looks like you guys had a fun holiday!

    My goals:
    -Cook more (less seamless)
    -Start taking yoga
    -Be happy and not to be so hard on myself

    Thanks for sharing your goals!

  2. Great new years goals! Mine is the same as it always is: go to the gym more and staying happy and healthy.

  3. Mine are- more yoga. More fun in the sun (and snow) with the Natoris. And open my snail mail faster.

  4. Thanks for sharing your 2016 Goals, I think you look fantastic in your high waisted bikini! I am still working on my goals but I may have to incorporate more than a few of yours into my list.

  5. Good goals to have for 2016, best of luck with them all. I need to remember some of these! Some of mine for the new year are not allowing myself to get so anxious about things all the time, being kinder to others and generally trying to bring other people up/make themselves feel great about themselves. It’s all about paying it forward for 2016! 😀 Happy new year.
