How are you feeling about the start of the year?

I notice an interesting energy, where people feel pressured to "get it right."

✨  Set goals and intentions by Jan 1;

✨  Have a clear focus, after spending an hour reflecting; and

✨  Feel momentum kick in... like now.

Um... can we just take a deep breath together please? This is NOT real.

You don't need to rush yourself love. You have all the time and space you need... energy alignment FIRST will create ease and flow in the decision making and action taking stage of the game!!

Aligning energy takes time, presence and mindfulness.

Rushing does not do you any favours... if anything, it will cause you to be held back.

This year, we are surrounded by so much love and support (hello nurturing 6 energy!!). We also have the entire month of January to explore with curiosity and experiment.

Then in February, an 8 energy month, we will kick into the infinite flow of momentum.

So babe, take your time now. Go slow, be present, let mindfulness guide you. Get curious. Imagine, daydream, what could be possible, delightful, fun and loving for you?

I spent some time journalling to come up with my word of the year... the word that will keep me focused and aligned to help me create more of what I truly desire in 2022.  

Want to see my process?

First, I took the time to write out the wins I wanted to celebrate from last year. It truly was an incredible year in so many ways.

>>>>  I took big, bold, fearless action on the regular... and, as a result, my self trust, self belief, and self confidence skyrocketed. And this, truly, is the secret to navigating life's bumps with as much ease as possible.

Second, I wrote out all the things I wanted and did NOT want to experience in 2022.

>>>>  More time loving life as a mom, more spaciousness, more presence, time for thoughtful, deliberate actions.

I mean, there was a LOT more... like 2 or 3 pages on each of these questions... but I'm sharing with you high level, so you can try this for yourself.

Third, I made a mind map. I simplified what I wanted to create in a few key phrases, and drew it out (I put a picture of it for you to see, below!!) And I realized, for me, one word connected them all.  Ready for it??

>>>>   Discernment  <<<<

Offf... when I fell into this, it feels so alive in my body. And this, my dear, is when you know you have hit on something. 

This is the point.

You want to feel a spark of lightness, aliveness, and vibrancy through your being.

So this spark can guide you, carry you and hold you. Through the ups and the downs, the opportunities and the challenges... keeping you connected to yourself and your inner guidance system as you create more and more of what you truly desire.

This is my deepest wish for you.

✨  That you can hear yourself, in the shouts and whispers.

✨  That you can honour yourself, even when others may be disappointed.

✨  That you can allow yourself to receive all the wealth and wellbeing and love that want to flow your way. 

Did you create a word of the year or an intention?  I would love to hear!! Reply and let me know!

PS.  Today is the first of a series of significant dates.
We will have the opportunity to notice subtle ways we don’t trust ourselves.

✨where we go along, just to get along.
✨where we ignore very subtle messages from our inner guidance system, so as not to let others down or risk disappointing someone.
✨where pedestaling has us dimming our power.

Let yourself bring awareness.

It is good to check in, question, and have our beliefs challenged. This can support our growth and strengthen our clarity.

It’s not good to have connections with others cause you to dim your light or shrink your power.

Your energy matters. Your inner guidance system will always support you and have your back. It’s on us to listen.
