Happy December and end of the year. I invite you to pause, reflect and celebrate as we wind down the year.
Are you thinking wow already or are you thinking thank goodness it’s over? Wherever you land take a moment to review this year as we move into the next. Let’s leave behind what didn’t serve us and take forward what does.
I’m beyond ready for 2023 to be over, it’s been a doozy with many major life changes with a few highs and lots of really low lows. I’m looking forward to a better 2024!
I like the ritual of a year-end pause to review and close out the year with reflection and purpose. This year it’s been really helpful to further process the changes and reflect on where I am in life and in this world.
I encourage you to take time to pause, reflect over the past year to reap its benefits. Some of the benefits are listed below.
