New Year Resolutions Every Woman Should Make And Keep

We’re nearing that time of year when we start to reflect upon the changes we would like to make to improve our lives. Living healthily and getting fit crop up constantly at the top of everyone’s New Year resolution list. Thirty-four years old S. Al S., Emirati, a working mother of three, has spent the past few years trying to do what thousands of other women are determined to do at the beginning of each year: take better care of themselves, and live a healthier life together with their families. “Honestly, I have trouble keeping my resolutions, when it comes to improving my eating habits, or finding time to go to the gym, but this time I’m determined to do better”, confessed S. Al S. S. Al S. is more optimistic about her success this time around, as she has already started off on the right foot, by seeking out easy to access resources for quick advice and tips for maintaining a well-balanced diet and regular exercise, and also - the key to her resolution - motivation. For many women, the path to good health is not easy, but rather one of daily obstacles along the way. Family responsibilities, work pressure, the universal lack of time and energy depletion are only a few culprits that can stop the best of resolutions in their tracks and undermine goals. Success is not accidental. It begins with a well-conceived and enduring plan. Every woman can and will achieve more in the next year than she has in the past with a sound plan of action, inspiration and support. To help women in their quest for wellbeing, anaZahra.com, the dynamic online destination for modern Arab women, has expanded its content with the addition of a health and fitness section reflecting the commitment to a lifestyle that focuses on taking care of the body and mind, achieving a balanced state of wellbeing and a higher quality of life, and ultimately helping women to be their best, in all aspects of their lives. The aim is to empower women with practical, reliable and relevant content, tailored to meet the needs and challenges of Arab women today. "Women have different needs, health concerns and fitness goals. It is important to provide the full spectrum of information and resources women are looking for, in a convenient format that fits their lifestyles”, commented Mira Abed Rabbo, a nutritionist who contributes to anaZahra.com. “I try to look after myself: I exercise regularly, I eat well and drink plenty of water, and I’m interested to know what’s good for me, the benefits of the foods I include in my diet, so I often look for further information, tips and advice”, said R.M., a Jordanian woman in her early 20s, who appreciates the importance of taking care of her body without taking a tall on it. This is not only R.M.’s outlook; a survey commissioned by anaZahra.com (and conducted by YouGovSiraj earlier this year) showed that health and wellbeing are key priorities among Arab women. There’s an overall growing interest and determination among Arab women to improving their lifestyle and keeping up to date on the latest health and nutrition information. “We want to motivate women to not only go for a walk, or make a healthy meal, but to also feel encouraged to join a community that is committed to leading and living a healthier and more active life”, said Zoya Sakr, the Editor-in-Chief of anaZahra.com. “Our goal is to create a place for Arab women that offers both sought after content and a sense of community where they can discuss and discover genuinely useful and insightful content.” AnaZahra.com has assembled a team of dedicated physicians, dietitians and specialists, such as Dr. Majd Al Naji, Dr. Nadia Buhannad, Joelle Mardinian and Mira Abed Rabbo to name but a few, to contribute with advice and tips. These are like-minded individuals, and a perfect fit to anaZahra.com, because they practice what they preach in terms of living a healthy life and sharing that experience with those around them. Since launching in July, anaZahra.com has quickly become one of the most popular go to resources for Arab women, amassing more than 4,450,000 million views and offering its growing community of over 145,000 women, a destination that both empowers and enhances Arab women’s lives. Its wealth of content covers fashion and beauty, entertainment and celebrity news, health and fitness and will continue to expand in the coming months. By investing your efforts into a New Year’s resolution, you give yourself a launch pad for starting your New Year and your new life. Go to anaZahra.com for health and fitness tips, words of inspiration, and a real chance to make it happen!
