Friend,
It's a New Year, new beginning, fresh start. It's important not to just gloss over it as another day off from work that looks and feels just like every other day of the year. This year, let's make it special!
Do you have any rituals to ring in the New Year? Last year was a bit of a challenge for me so I decided I wanted to acknowledge the "out with the old and in with the new" mindset.
First, I opened all the windows (and I mean all of them!) to literally change the air. Fortunately, it was 58 degrees so it wasn't freezing cold out. Then I took some sage, and smudged the house. Smudging is an ancient ritual to used to purify.
After I closed the windows — my husband came home in the midst of all this and thought I'd gone totally nuts — I went on to the second part.
If you're looking to release the past, I highly recommend this exercise. It will help you let go of all that no longer serves you.
Get ready to set yourself free!
