HAPPY NEW YEAR! Are You Ready to Release and Reimagine?

Dear Enchanted One,

We’ve come through the eye of a needle this year, haven’t we? The new year can bring a mixture of sadness and regret as well as hope and dreams for the future, so be gentle with yourself if you’re not feeling festive and overjoyed. However, you are allowed to feel sad and still celebrate what you will create, ahead.

I like to do some sort of ritual to send the year off. You can write all that you wish to release on a piece of paper and then burn it in the fireplace, an outdoor firepit, or mindfully over a pot of water in the kitchen sink. You can even shred it or tear it into little pieces with your hands.

Then write down what you’d like to envision for 2021. Narrow it to maybe 3 things that will get your time, energy, money or attention. For example: 1-good health, 2-organize my calendar, 3-give attention to only what matters the most (and meditate to figure out what that is.)

You can cut out phrases and images from magazines to put on a vision board, create a Pinterest board, or simply make a list and put it where you will see it each day. Make sure it contains an image that comforts or inspires you.

Remember that you are stronger than you think, wiser than you imagine, and more loved than you know.

Here’s to a Happy and Healthy 2021!
