I wanted to bring you this meditation for cultivating joy because no matter what our circumstances are, we can always cultivate joy. So the stress of this time of year can sometimes leave you feeling exhausted and zap the joy from the holidays that are supposed to bring. 

Practicing this meditation daily,  focusing on cultivating and spreading joy.  With repetition, you'll be able to tap into those feelings more readily, even when faced with the stress of the season.

It's time to wrap it up ... reflect and anticipate.
What will you be leaving behind in 2023 and what you are taking with you in 2024?
 
1. Reflect on the Past Year:

• What were my main goals at the beginning of the year?
• What progress did I make toward each goal?
• What specific achievements am I proud of?
• What challenges did I face, and how did I overcome them?
• What lessons did I learn from both successes and setbacks?

2. Assess Personal and Professional Growth:

• What new skills or knowledge did I acquire?
• How did I grow personally and professionally?
• What significant accomplishments stand out?
• Are there changes in mindset, habits, or relationships?
• How would I describe my overall well-being, both physically and mentally?

3. Set Clear Goals for the Next Year:

• Based on reflection, what are my top priorities for the next year?
• How can I turn lessons learned into actionable goals?
• What specific steps can I take to achieve these goals?
• What are the timelines and milestones for each goal?
• How can I leverage past experiences to inform and guide my plans?

These questions aim to guide your self-reflection process, helping you to identify key aspects of your journey over the past year, assess your growth and accomplishments, and set clear, actionable goals for the upcoming year. Adjust and customize - make them your own, based on your unique experiences and aspirations.

It’s never too late to learn life’s lessons. 

A growth mindset is the belief that intelligence and talent can be developed through hard work, dedication, and perseverance. People with a growth mindset embrace challenges and see them as opportunities to learn and grow. They are not afraid to make mistakes and view them as part of the learning process. 

This is how we discover our capacity and then blow our minds by expanding that capacity - seeing what we are capable of!

Create and generate kindness, compassion, and empathy for yourself and others. Breath by breath and moment by moment. 

Focusing on the breath not only helps us to ease the mind. But it can help us to be present so that we can focus on what matters. 

In this exercise, we focus on sending compassion and kindness to others. But you can also practice doing this exercise when you're out and about in the world. Try sending a deep breath to a stranger. In line. In traffic or wherever you may find yourself. The breath, not only connects us to ourselves, but it can connect us to the world around us.

As we navigate the holiday season and life's challenges, we emphasize the importance of gratitude, mindfulness, and the pursuit of joy in contributing to overall well-being. Joy is a journey, not a constant destination, and its pursuit involves connection with others and authentic living aligned with one's values.

Joy to the world!

This is a perfect opportunity to take in your surroundings. And to connect with the body. We spend so much of our time disconnected from the world around us. 

This is an exercise designed to help us come out of our heads and into our bodies. By bringing our attention to our bodies. We start to notice a little bit of what's going on around us. We start to feel more present. And we begin to feel more present. The mind starts to calm down a bit. So grab your coffee or your tea. Or drink of choice. And join me on this short walk. 

The nice thing is, is that you can do this at home, taking a break, or you can do this at work. You don't have to walk at a particular pace. Whatever is most comfortable for you. 

I hope you enjoy your mindful walk. I encourage you every time that you get up to move today, to notice the connection between your feet. And the earth beneath you. as you go throughout your day to default to your extraordinary self.

Adaptability is a valuable skill that everyone should possess to navigate change with grace and emerge stronger. Understanding the science behind adaptability, recognizing and overcoming obstacles, and implementing practical tips are key. Those with this strength should help others see the benefits of staying open and flexible. 

The saying, "It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change," holds true. Embrace adaptability, take curves as they come, and default to yes to thrive in the ever-changing landscape of life.
