The astrological new year begins when the sun transitions during the spring equinox.
This marks a time of new beginnings and fresh starts.
The start of a new cycle for everyone.
The cosmic reset you have been craving.
It's a great time to reflect on personal goals.
To set sights on new directions.
And to bring into focus where you are still getting in your own way.
Welcome to Coached by Nikki Dyer.
So let's begin by closing down your eyes and settling into the space,
Wherever you are.
Connecting to the breath.
Release a little deeper still into relaxation and into this moment.
Let go of the ideas or fears as they flow in and out.
You don't have to do anything right now,
Nor be anything to anyone.
So continue to focus on your breath.
And to allow yourself to just be here.
Letting your breath find a gentle rhythm of its own.
Seeing if you can relax just a little bit more still.
The astrological new year arrives with spring and it marks the beginning of Aries season.
Some of you may be feeling like this year has been off to a slow start.
And for those of you,
I come to you with good news.
That this is just your beginning.
As the new buds burst through once frozen soil.
And color returns to the natural world around us.
We tend to feel re-energized as well.
So we use this burst of energy to renew intentions or to revise them.
To initiate new beginnings.
And most important of all,
To take big bold steps forward.
So take a long slow inhale here,
Feeling the courageous and trailblazing energy of Aries as it fills your body and mind.
And as you exhale,
I want you to just be here.
To feel the shift of energy happening right before you.
Again,
Breathing in slowly as you inhale the spark of energy buzzing all around.
And on the exhale,
Become a little more present still.
The spring equinox opens us to a new season of possibilities.
The energy will help you feel ready to commit to your vision,
Your plans,
Whatever they may be.
So take time for another long slow inhale in.
And a slow exhale out.
And begin to re-center your thoughts here.
So your mind and heart can work together to write your future.
As I ask you to answer two simple questions.
What would fill your heart with the greatest joy if you accomplished it this year?
And finally,
Question two.
What habits or excuses will stand in your way of making this happen?
I encourage you now to open your imagination even more.
As you see a future version of you on the day you achieve your greatest joy of the year.
And notice the small details in what you begin to see.
See yourself standing with pride and capability.
See who you have become.
And I also want you to recognize who or what you have had to release to get there.
The universe is showing you there is a new path forward.
A path of opportunity and abundance.
One where you walk freely,
Without fear or doubt.
Today I invite you to become one with the flow.
To release any lingering tightness in your chest or busyness in your mind.
To be held by something greater.
The comfort in knowing that anything that is truly meant for you will never miss you.
And that you are worthy of your greatest joys.
So take a long slow breath in.
And a slow breath out.
There is no rush.
There will be plenty of opportunities for those open to them throughout the year ahead.
So together we take a final deep breath in here.
Welcoming a new kind of awareness and abundance into your heart.
And exhale as any remaining bits of last year's energy goes.
This next year begins the moment you open your eyes.
It is through unclenching our will that we are able to see the world as it is now.
It is through unclenching our will that we allow for new things to grow.
