New Year, New You: Wellness Tips and Must-Haves for Feeling Your Best in 2025

As we start the new year, we're looking for ways to look and feel our best from the inside out and make some positive changes to our routines.

How do we resolve to be healthier this new year?

Here's the scoop on the best ways to do it.

Well, starting a health journey in the new year can feel daunting, but it doesn't have to.

It's all about finding ways to make it easy and enjoyable and help you stay the course to keep the momentum going.

Protein shakes are an easy, delicious way to add satisfying protein to your daily routine, whether it's a part of breakfast or lunch or drinking one for a post-workout boost.

It's even good in coffee or tea or adding it to pancakes for added protein.

Premier Protein is our favorite because they're delicious with 12 different flavors to choose from, plus filled with good, easy-to-understand nutrition and 30g of high-quality protein in each serving.

And they're ringing in the new year with some delicious and nutritious deals.

To help you start the year on the right foot, select Premier Protein shakes and powder, on sale at Amazon for up to 30% off on January 8th and 9th.

When it comes to eating healthy, having something healthy and ready at all times is half the battle.

That's why we love Fresh Express .

They have more than 100 varieties of prepacked salads each filled with good nutritious things.

They have a ton of great recipes on their website too, like citrus spring mix salad and Italian-crusted salmon with twisted creamy truffle Caesar salad.

They're also doing something fun called the Fresh Start Challenge, a 31-day campaign to inspire healthier habits--from tips like how to get more greens in your diet and stay hydrated to tips on how to stay active.

You can share your progress using #freshstartchallenge.

They'll post daily challenges online and on social media.

It's a great way to keep yourself accountable and stay on track.

Now, according to the CDC, 43% of adults said they felt more stressed than the year before.

More than ⅓ of Americans don't get as much sleep as they need.

We all know the recommendations--the average person needs at least 7 hours.

Between hormones and stress, that's a joke for most women, so Vidaful is a brand-new company with botanical supplements made for women by women.

Their first line is centered on Kanna, a botanical succulent used for ages in South Africa to elevate mood, reduce stress, and alleviate tension.

Vidaful works directly with South African farmers to ensure the highest quality and effectiveness.

Their KannaVida Dream is blended with other sleep-inducing herbs, chamomile, hops, and valerian--to calm the mind, promote relaxation, and get the body ready for sleep.

It's formulated intentionally without the hormone melatonin, so it naturally helps you fall asleep and stay asleep with all-natural plant-based ingredients.

Wake feeling rested and refreshed and not groggy.

Now, if you are one of the lucky ones who already sleeps like a baby every night but would like some support dealing with stress during the day, try KannaVida Balance .

It is designed to combat daily stress and help elevate mood, so you can focus on what matters to you.

You can find these and their whole line at wearevidaful.com .

We are also huge fans of probiotics because a healthy gut is everything to feeling your best from the inside out.

Your gut is unique and Florastor Probiotics offers the #1 selling probiotic worldwide that works differently with your unique gut.

What's so special is that these work to restore your natural gut flora to give you just what you need, flushing out the bad bacteria, boosting the good bacteria, strengthening your digestive health, and supporting your own immune system.

Check out the Florastor Dual Action formula and FlorastorKids Dual Action Probiotic Supplement this new year to keep you and your family's gut happy and healthy.

You can find them in the digestive health aisle.
