Looking Back at January: Wins, Challenges, and What I'm Proud Of

Hi, it’s Diana from Healthy Seniors.

If you’ve followed Healthy Seniors, you probably know that every month in 2025 I chose a different challenge or focus for the month — for example, in January I wanted to walk 10,000 steps per day, and in May my focus was to drink more water. Those monthly challenges taught me so much about intentional living and showing up for myself — especially when I felt stuck and had to find what’s flowing. By the way, I managed to write the article about Gladys’s book — hope you enjoyed it!

It was really good to have that moment to stop and reflect on what I wanted to do for the month, then at the end of the month reflect on what happened and what went well or less well. It’s the kind of accountability that keeps you on track, and I really encourage you to try it.

This year, I’m choosing something different.

In December, I set my intentions for 2026 — you can read them here. Now, a month later, it feels good to check back and see if I’m on track with what I wrote…
