AT WARNER ORTHOPEDICS & WELLNESS, OUR GOAL IS TO GIVE YOU THE TOOLS YOU NEED TO ACHIEVE YOUR DIET & EXERCISE GOALS!
Happy New Year! There’s a lot to look forward to in 2022, and we’re here with Dr. Meredith Warner to help you achieve them.
Most of us begin the new year with a long list of goals in mind – but too often we fall short of our own expectations.
It’s possible to meet your New Year’s Resolutions with the right tools and guidance!
If you’re looking to start a stable exercise routine, lose weight sustainably, and improve your overall wellness – here are our best tips that can help you successfully embark on a new wellness journey.
It’s important to manage your expectations of success in the beginning of your new wellness routine. Instead of revamping every part of your life, try choosing to build one new habit at a time so they’ll stick. If you focus on one new habit a month, you’ll have 12 new habits you’ve added to your wellness routine by 2023!
Try to get your habits to build off of each other. If, for example, one of your resolutions is to wake up earlier, you don’t want to sit in bed with nothing to do – you’ll just fall back asleep! Set alarms and intentions to journal, make a healthy breakfast, or go on a brisk walk so you have something to keep you active and occupied.
If you want to start exercising more, that’s great! But it’s important to set specific goals and even write them down. Say that you’ll start exercising 30 minutes a day, 2 times a week. From there, you can gradually increase the amount of exercise, and see how your progress changes over time. This will help keep you accountable.
A lot of resolutions involve adding more habits to your routine. You should also think of what you can remove from your routine to make room for habits that can benefit you. Not enjoying your Zumba class anymore? Find a new activity that you enjoy better, or set aside that time to relax and read a book.
IT’S EASY TO GET STUCK IN OLD WAYS OF LIVING. IT’S TIME TO MAKE ROOM FOR THE NEW WAYS OF HEALING.
NEW Restful Sleep Gummy Vitamin
These delicious Tart Cherry Extract Gummies from Well Theory are designed to help you improve sleep patterns, joint mobility, muscle recovery, and getting your inflammation under control.
Optimize your rest with this highly antioxidant formula infused with Tart Cherry Extract, GABA, Melatonin, and soothing Chamomile Extract.
Total Nervous System + Cellular Support
ALA is a simple daily supplement that should be a staple in your wellness routine. It’s a powerhouse supplement that helps reduce inflammation and neuropathic pain by increasing antioxidant intake and promoting improved cell function.
ALA is unique because it supports your body’s natural free radical scavenging systems and can also recycle the antioxidant vitamins C and E, extending their function.
Build A Healthy Foundation
When you take these supplements together, you’re setting yourself up for success by establishing the building blocks of a healthier wellness routine.
One of the best ways to get started with a new wellness routine is to prioritize rest, and give your body the tools it needs to function. This bundle helps you fall asleep, and gives you an effective antioxidant dose to help your body purge free radicals.
This can assist with symptoms of brain fog, fatigue, and improve the health of your cell’s mitochondria – giving you a sustainable energy increase that will help you achieve your New Year’s Resolutions!

Good quality rest is vitally important to any wellness routine. As you sleep, your body heals itself, purges free radicals, and cleans toxins from your brain. Prioritize improving your sleep, and your other resolutions will become easily achievable.
Inflammation is the #1 lifestyle factor behind age and lifestyle-related diseases, like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and certain cancers. Eat a diet low in added sugars and sodium. Seek to improve the overall quality of your diet instead of focusing on eating certain foods or meeting certain calorie goals. If you eat a well-balanced, whole foods diet like the Mediterranean Diet, you’ll be well on your way to healthier golden years.
Exercise is great for improving cardiac health, improving muscle tone to prevent future injury, and is even important for mental health too! Under the guidance of your physician, start a gentle, daily exercise routine, like a yoga class, and build upon it as you gain fitness.
As you begin to exercise more, it’s normal to feel some muscle soreness. But if left unchecked, it could keep you from committing to daily exercise, or even lead to injury if you’re fatigued. Make sure you’re stretching before and after exercise, and optimize your recovery by taking supplements geared for recovery – like our highly antioxidant Tart Cherry Extract.
It’s okay to revisit certain goals and expectations as the year progresses. If you start having to stay later at your job, it’s okay to move your exercise routine to the weekend or shorten it so you can get a quick walk in before work. If you miss a few good nights’ rest while travelling or hanging out with friends, don’t think of it as lost progress! Just try again the next day.
Dr. Meredith Warner founded her private practice according to her beliefs that functional medicine, or functional wellness, should be blended with conventional Orthopedic medicine.
At Warner Orthopedics & Wellness, we believe that good medicine should be proactive and encompass the whole of you and your body’s systems.

At our clinic, we believe that you are ultimately in charge of accomplishing your health goals. We just give you the tools and resources you need to get started towards a path to better overall wellness.
We believe that you should be empowered in your health journey.
