Six New Year’s Resolutions That Will Really Make A Difference In 2024

Can you believe it’s time to kick off 2024? As we wave goodbye to the rollercoaster of 2023, it's the perfect moment to talk New Year's resolutions. Yep, those promises we make to ourselves in the wee hours of January 1, usually between confetti and a rendition of “Auld Lang Syne.” But let's ditch the clichés this year and dive into crafting resolutions that feel like they’re tailor-made for us.

Resolution #1: Make mealtime with your kiddo less stressful — and healthier

If you’re a new parent, you know how frazzled you can be when it comes to family mealtime. Beaba makes it easy to whip up fresh, homemade and healthy meals for your baby in under 20 minutes. The French brand designs thoughtful products with functionality in mind, lending parents the hand they need so they can spend more quality time with their little ones.  

Resolution #2: Recommit to your fitness routine

If you’re unsure where to start your 2024 wellness journey, ClassPass, the leading wellness membership platform, is here to point you in the right direction. This amazing app gives you worldwide access to thousands of top-rated gyms, fitness studios, salons and spas. What are you going to get into this year? According to ClassPass, Pilates was the most booked workout of 2023 – up 92% in bookings from 2022 – followed by Yoga and Strength Training. 

Resolution #3: Pack more protein into your diet

Energize your morning routine with protein-packed cottage cheese from Good Culture. Cottage cheese was an undeniable food trend in 2023 and the superfood has proven its here to stay. For a protein boost at breakfast, whip cottage cheese into scrambled eggs, spread a layer onto a veggie-topped toast, or grab a single serving cup to top with granola as you head out the door. Good Culture is made with gut-healthy live and active cultures and no chemical preservatives, gums or thickeners, and also boasts 70% less sugar than leading Greek yogurt brands.

Resolution #4: Reduce your use of single-use plastics

Did you know that buying bottled water is 2,000 times more expensive than drinking water from the tap? What’s more, single-use plastics are the third largest trash item from the oceans.

Hydro Flask gear can replace single-use plastics, like plastic water bottles and to-go containers. Start off the new year with fresh and clean bottles, tumblers, mugs, jars and straws to reduce your single-use plastics.

• Cleaning out your cabinets to make room for the new? Hydro Flask will help you recycle your beloved Hydro Flask products in exchange for a $5.00 credit towards your next hydroflask.com purchase. Learn more about their Trade-In Program here: https://www.hydroflask.com/trade-in.

You’ll be traveling in style: the inside of each Airstream is just as impressive as the outside, with all the comfort, technology, and convenience that makes travelers and campers anywhere feel like home.
