Listen Later

Before you step into the new year, there's something important to do: bless the year behind you. 

In this New Year's Eve episode, Coach Janet J guides you through "The Year Blessing" - a simple 3-part practice (5-10 minutes) that combines gratitude, acknowledgment, and intentional release to create healthy closure.

Plus, Janet prays a special blessing over you as you transition into the new year.

What You'll Learn:

  • Why closure rituals reduce rumination and support emotional processing (Norton & Gino)
  • How gratitude combined with release promotes psychological wellbeing
  • The Year Blessing practice: Acknowledge, Thank, Bless, Release
  • How to honor what was so you can step freely into what's next

Scripture Highlight:

 "He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus." Philippians 1:6
