SHOPPING LIST: What you need to stick to your New Year's resolutions | Lifestyle.INQ

OCTOBER 27, 2022

How are your New Year’s resolutions so far? We’re halfway done with January, so it’s either you’re still doing it with vigor, or you’ve slipped. No matter your situation, remember that it’s a marathon and not a sprint. You need to take it a day at a time and forgive yourself if you miss out on a couple of things.

It also doesn’t hurt to find some extra support. I find that purchasing something specific to my goal reminds me why I am doing it. I think, “I bought it for a specific purpose, so I better use it, or it will go to waste.” Ignore the sunk cost fallacy for a bit. Go for the guilt and put your butt into it.

Levi’s High Loose Cuffed in Pine Gulch Creek

 

When you’re doing stuff, you must be in something that’s both comfortable and reliable. A pair of jeans from Levi’s has proven to be timeless because it suits a whole wealth of lifestyles. With an oversized fit and stacked hem, the Levi’s High Loose Cuffed in Pine Gulch Creek is a no-brainer match to a variety of tops. It’s both for the home office and when you need to move freely. These jeans are part of the Spring ’22 Red collection which features the introduction of natural indigo dye made from the woad plant – a cleaner version of indigo that uses less water and chemicals and features a lighter indigo hue.

B. Coffee The Freshman Coffee Maker

This machine from B. Coffee offers the luxurious experience of other capsule coffee machines for a fraction of the price. As a first-time user, I found it easy to set up and convenient to use every day. The time it needs to warm up is faster than the time you need to froth your milk.

A big plus is how the design can accommodate capsules from other coffee brands. However, I suggest B. Coffee’s blends like Sedosa Latte, Xoco Mocha, Intenso Cappucino. They come in affordable bundles that don’t scrimp on the taste.

It’s pretty clear why this baby will help you start your days right and keep your good habits.

Atlas Rocketbook Panda Planner

If you’re the type of person who still needs to handwrite their best work, this is your companion. The Atlas Rocketbook Panda Planner utilizes its special QR-coded pages and Rocketbook app to translate your written notes into the digital platform of your choice.

As a planner, it is re-usable for years as the special paper works with the Pilot Pilot FriXion pen. There are also certain guides so you can conquer your tasks efficiently, along with blank pages so you can play around.

Fitbit Charge 5

Our very fitness columnist, Mitch Felipe Mendoza, explains well why fitness trackers are an excellent way to keep to your exercise schedule.

I recommend the Fitbit Charge 5. It counts your Active Zone Minutes, which is the time you’ve spent in the fat burn, cardio, or peak heart-rate zones. You get the usual metrics (steps, calories, and heart rate) and more nuanced statistics. You also get detailed information regarding your sleeping patterns and a Daily Readiness Score, which tells you just how you’re ready to work out or if you should prioritize recovery, combining all the Fitbit data.

Fitbit Charge 5 is also the first wearable tech that features an EDA sensor. By measuring the electrodermal activity on your skin, you better understand how you respond to stress. Regular EDA sessions and mindfulness practices which you can do with the Fitbit app’s programs, help improve your mental well-being.

Luxelle Plasma Spot Treatment Device

What’s a beauty device doing here? I know many people who always include putting a premium on their skincare as part of their resolutions. And this device from Luxelle is going to make sure you’ve ticked that box. Upon using this for just a few days, I immediately noticed an enhanced glow in my skin. I use it in the morning and the evening for just five minutes after applying toner. It looks like I just got a derma treatment all the time.

Aside from keeping pimples away, this helps heal scars and improve pigmentation. On top of that, it helps with your skin’s regenerative ability via stimulating the fibroblast in the skin.
