With 2019 coming to a close, it’s time to reflect on the past year and everything that occurred in it. Whether or not 2019 was challenging or easy for you, what was something amazing that came your way? Big or small, long or short, a person, place or thing, an accomplishment… reflect on it! Write or share about it. Reflecting on a success, an achievement, a blessing, will allow you to feel gratitude for what came through, be open and prepare you for what’s coming next.

Beauty is a feeling, it comes from within! What does beauty mean to you? Today we are going to tap into the affirmation that we are beautiful exactly the way we are. We tend to spread ourselves thin around the holidays, and we are often bombarded with messages around the theme of “new year, new you”. This affirmation is your remedy!

Don’t let anyone else define beauty for you. Anytime you feel lesser than this week, reconnect to this affirmation and repeat it to yourself as needed. You are uniquely you and you’re here to bring that to the world. Tune in for something your heart has been longing to hear.

Today for our meditation practice, our awareness is brought to our lower belly. As you practice today, notice the physical shifts that happen in the low abdomen with every breath. With each inhale, there is growth, expansion and an energy increase, and with every exhale there is contraction as you release that energy back into the world around you. This is a place on our body that we usually hold onto. Today’s practice will invite you to soften and let go. You don’t have to hold on to anything in this moment.

It is really important that we make our own decisions, but more so that we are confident in them! The more time we spend doubting ourselves or looking for an answer outside of ourselves, the more time we spend out of alignment with our authentic souls. Our heart always knows the answer; sometimes the practice is sitting in silence and reflecting on what that is. Today’s Make It Happen Monday will reaffirm that you’ve got this!

Today we are practicing the spiritual art of cutting ourselves some slack! You may not even be aware of the high expectations you put on yourself to accomplish, but here is a truth: you are doing the best you can. Adding pressure only makes you feel like you never do enough. Today, relieve yourself of that pressure and let go of some of your responsibilities. Ask yourself what are some things you actually don’t have to do right now? Figure them out, and then drop them. Make sure you do it guilt-free, too. Come Monday, you may find that you are more motivated then you have ever been.

Sometimes we set really good intentions for our day, but then life takes over. Today’s practice will allow you to step into gratitude at every moment. Let’s keep a gratitude journal! Bring a notebook with you today and every single time you encounter something you feel grateful for, write it down. Soak the gratitude in and then document it in real time. Be specific! By the end of the day, you will be able to see a long list of things big and small you found yourself grateful for in that moment. You may just realize that you have more things to be grateful for in a single day that you usually give credit for.

Today’s meditation practice can be helpful if you find yourself experiencing stress or anxiety – we are going to do an entire body scan! Bring yourself to a place where you can fully let go and relax. Then bringing your attention all the way from the top of your head to the tips of your toes, you will have space to connect to each part of your body individually. As you linger with your awareness in different areas, see if anything has accumulated anywhere and use your breath to let it go. Scanning your body can have answers of its own. It’s only through connecting with all parts can we feel the true connectedness of our entire body.
