This meditation is to help you reflect on this past year.
Begin by closing your eyes and just allow your breath to flow in and out and your body begins to relax.
And the more you relax,
The more your mind relaxes and releases the thoughts in your to-do list and allows you to be more present in this moment.
So you just breathe and release any stress.
Release any frustrations from the day.
Just notice what it's like for your body to begin to relax.
To exhale any stress and to let peace take over.
Notice how your body feels when it feels calm and steady and present.
Remembering that any time a thought comes in to try to distract you,
Just bring your attention back to your breath.
Back to this moment and just let those thoughts go and remind your body that you're gonna sit here for a moment and let the peace take over.
And now we're gonna begin with a wonderful breathing exercise.
Breathe in to the count of four.
Hold for four.
Exhale for four.
Hold for four and then do it again.
Just take a moment to do a couple rounds and let your body continue to relax.
Your mind to calm.
Your soul and energy to awaken.
Very well.
Now just allow your breath to return to normal and I want you to acknowledge and honor your journey this year.
This is a moment for you to recognize and honor the challenges you've overcome.
The lessons you've learned.
The ways you allowed yourself to be.
The moments when you felt proud of who you are.
Who you're becoming.
For the blessings that arrived in your life throughout this year.
And during this reflection I'm going to ask you to acknowledge what you've done but also who you've been.
Who you've become.
Who you've allowed yourself to be.
The moments when you are you.
The moments when you showed up for yourself.
The moments when you chose yourself in a loving and supporting way.
The moments when kindness led you and love led you.
The moments when you chose forgiveness.
When you made the choices that brought you closer to creating your future.
And the goals that you've accomplished and to grieve what you lost.
So we're gonna start month by month.
So go back to January first and begin to bring your awareness to everything that January brought you.
The hope and excitement.
The goals you decided for yourself.
The challenges you overcame.
How you showed up for you even if it was a new outfit you got.
How you sent out thank-you cards exactly how you wanted to.
Whatever January brought to you take a moment and reflect on that now.
And now let's go to February.
Bring your awareness to everything you gained.
The awareness to self-growth.
The challenges you overcame.
Reflect on February and its impact on your journey.
And now it's time to reflect on March.
All of the challenges March brought.
The emotions.
The lessons.
The loss.
And just take a moment to really reflect and become aware of how you grew in March.
What choices you made to support yourself.
To love yourself and those around you.
And now it's time to reflect on April.
What did you learn?
What did you accomplish?
How did you show up?
And now it's time for May.
Bring your awareness to May.
What blessings did you receive?
What challenges did you overcome?
How did you show up that feels good?
Just take a moment and reflect on May.
And June.
What happened in June?
What brought you joy?
How'd you overcome any fears?
What challenges did you move through?
What emotions did you recognize and honor and then release?
And in July,
What challenges did you overcome?
What lessons did you learn?
Take a moment and reflect.
How did you show up?
How did you honor who you are?
And August.
Again just taking a moment to reflect on the lessons and the growth that August brought you.
What challenges did you overcome?
What lessons did you learn?
What inner work did you start or accomplish?
And September.
What lessons and growth did September bring to you?
What blessings came in September?
What wisdom came in September?
And then in your journey,
October arrived and it's time to be aware of what challenges and lessons and blessings you received in October.
November is often a month of gratitude and we spend so much time thinking of the things we're grateful for,
The people we're grateful for and I want you to also reflect on you and how you were,
How you showed up,
How you gave,
How you received,
The lessons you learned,
The challenges you overcame.
And as December wraps up the year,
Just take a moment to reflect on what December has brought you.
The lessons you've learned,
The blessings you've received,
The blessings you've given.
And now just take a moment and notice the themes,
The theme of the lesson you learned this year,
The theme of the growth that you've accomplished,
The love that you've given and received.
And just take a moment and appreciation.
Appreciation for the year that you're leaving behind and have appreciation for yourself,
The challenges you overcame,
The lessons you learned,
The inner work you dove into and who you are as you are right now.
This version of you is just as powerful and loving and enough as the best version of you.
And now take a moment to decide to carry this momentum into the new year,
Into 2021.
Allow this momentum of gratitude and appreciation and love and acknowledging your strength and resilience,
Your ability to give and to receive love.
Let this momentum carry you into 2021 and throughout the new year.
And take a moment and decide what do you want to draw to you as you continue your journey into the new year.
What choices are you going to make that will help you continue to create the future that you want in 2021 and you understand that you create your future by the choices you make today.
And take a moment to fully appreciate your strength,
Your creativity and that it's okay to want to do more and it's okay to feel satisfied with what you've already done.
Make the choice to allow your growth to continue and to keep showing up for yourself and allowing your true self to be seen and to expand and remind yourself that you're capable of handling whatever the new year brings you.
All of the good and any of the pain.
You've got this.
You are strong and incredible and resilient.
You are wise and full of love and full of hope and you know that you can make choices that support your future.
So decide in your mind right now is there a theme for the new year for you and decide how you're gonna show up for yourself as the new year unfolds.
Very,
Very well.
Now take a moment and just return your focus to your breath.
Feel and acknowledge the life flowing through you.
The energy flowing through you and all around you.
Knowing that you have the energy,
The skills and the heart to draw your desires towards you and to help create them based on your choices.
I want to take a moment in gratitude for you and for being here and for doing your part to make the world a better place.
Thank you for taking the time to love yourself.
This helps you love the world and those around you including yourself deep to your soul.
You're an incredible person and I'm so grateful to share this earth with you.
When you're ready go ahead and open your eyes.
Take a breath and return to your day.
I'm sending love to you as you go on your way and as you step into the new year.
Thank you for joining me.
Namaste.
