After the festive Christmas celebrations or New Year's party, it is common to face the annoying symptoms of a hangover, an experience that can be challenging, especially after a breakup that is still haunting our emotions at the end of the year , but can be faced with a good infusion.

According to Dr. Blanca Rodríguez-Ayala, doctor and teacher at the University of Distance Education of Spain, these three infusions are especially recommended:

30 New Year's resolutions and how to keep them

 New Year's resolutions are those personal objectives that we set for ourselves when we cross the December goal, but do they exist? Are there any known real cases of people who comply with them?

That doesn't matter, the important thing is to have them. Whoever doesn't have them doesn't know the satisfaction of seeing them fulfilled during the following year, or doesn't enjoy the frustration laughing with family or friends remembering those of the current year, just a few hours before the end of the time to fulfill them.

To the “go to the gym”, “quit smoking” or “learn English” many more can be added in case you fail in the mission of fulfilling any of the three. Well, the truth is that these are complicated.
