The same blogs and articles invariably pop up time and time again at this time of the year. Over the next couple of weeks, you will lose count of how many you have seen.
The last and first couple of weeks of a year always feature an incredible number of blogs and articles about how you should transform yourself for the year ahead.
The message is generally the same. ‘Be the you you’ve always wanted to be in 2021’, ‘2021 is your moment to become a better person’, ‘Get the success you’ve always longed for – transform yourself in 2021’, etc.
While it is very admirable to start each and every new year vowing to transform yourself, we at Wigs4U HQ prefer a more attainable approach.
We think it’s better to set yourself achievable goals because setting out to run before you can walk deters you from carrying on when you inevitably reach an obstacle. It would be like challenging yourself to run a marathon in a month’s time when you haven’t even done a 5k before.
Read on to find out how you can transform yourself in the New Year, and stay transformed!
Mindfulness is brilliant. It really is the ‘in thing’ of the decade. Working on your mindfulness practice is a great way to make all of those goals that you’ve been desperate to achieve actually happen.
Having the right intentions is key to making your New Year’s Resolutions last. PBC (Pause, Breathe, Choose) will help you to ground yourself during the day and keep stepping you that little bit closer towards your goal. Here’s how to do it:
Then reflect on what your goal is and you want to achieve it. Doing this at least once a day, every day will soon see you on the path to success.
Starting a new hobby is a great way to reinvent yourself. To make those new hobbies into long lasting features of your life you will need to practice your mindfulness with the technique detailed above.
But how do you go about choosing a brilliant new hobby?
There are so many fantastic hobbies to try now no matter where you live, especially with so many activities being held online.
If you’re someone who loves cooking but is a little wary of leaving their comfort zone, then cooking one new thing every week is a great way to push yourself. Having a weekly journal is a great way to keep you on track.
Who doesn’t have at least one form of exercise on their New Year’s Resolutions list?
Whether your New Year’s Resolution is to do more yoga or swimming, run a marathon or go to the gym every day, having a buddy will keep you motivated.
Having someone with the same resolution as you and will hold you accountable means that you are more likely to succeed. Who knew that the new you was so fit?
If you want to change your life, you should start by changing your wardrobe. Saying goodbye to all of your old clothes means that you are well and truly embarking on your new life. “Your wardrobe is full of old clothes, old memories and old associations. It is important for you to start to realise that the person that used to wear those has evolved, moved on and an updated more fabulous person exists in [their] place”.
Invest in clothing that the person you want to be would wear. When you get dressed every morning it will remind you of the promises you made at the start of the year.
While you are deciding on the contents of your New Year, New Wardrobe thinks about what New You wants to wear for all sorts of occasions.
Take a leaf out of @BritishVogue’s book, they say that in 2021 you should “Invest in a shirt dress, and prepare to go backless”.
Finally, it’s an oldie but a goodie! Changing your hairstyle is a well-known expression of someone’s desire to say goodbye to their old life and their desire to embrace a new one. Without doing anything as risky as dyeing or perming your hair, or shaving it all off, you can reinvent yourself by buying a wig.
Wigs are a great way to experiment with your look safely. You can have every single possible hairstyle and hair texture that you have ever admired without damaging a single hair on your head. It’s no wonder that celebrities in their dozens have been taking to wearing wigs.
Wigs4U is a family business with more than 30 years’ experience in the industry.
If you want to reinvent yourself for the new year by buying a wig but don’t know where to start, then call us on 01945 587584 today. We are always happy to talk.
