Happy New Year!! Let me first just begin with a huge "Thank you"! You are here, and that's not to be dismissed. Think of everything it took through your own life and mine that happened to come together in just the right way for our two souls to connect! I do not take these things for granted - the people who come in our lives mean something. You and I are connected for a reason. Whatever that reason is, I am grateful for it and I am grateful for you.

Ahhhh, the New Year. A fresh start. Hopes, dreams, visions.

How often do you give yourself the option to even dream or create a vision for yourself? Have you noticed how we tend to get into a rhythm in our lives, and so easily end up in auto-pilot? Often times, the way “things have been” becomes the default for the way things will be. Somewhere along the way, we forget that we can choose. Quite often, we even stop dreaming.

If you haven’t already, sit down and take 10 minutes to review everything you accomplished and experienced last year. I was invited to do this myself yesterday with another wonderful Kundalini teacher, Maha Taylor, and found it to be a very powerful exercise. She suggested scrolling through your photos, if that helps jog your memory. And don’t look only for accomplishments, but just review your experiences. Notice, especially, if there were challenges that you went through (physical, emotional, mental, spiritual), and what the outcome was. Let your nervous system take stock of the fact that you’re still alive: you made it through. Things may not have all turned out the way we wanted them to, but we still survived through it, and hopefully we learned something through the process.

Then take that awareness of your resiliency, your progress, your journey and bring it to the present moment. Take a few minutes (or better yet, a day/weekend away from your work/daily life) and allow yourself to dream. Your life circumstances might make it feel like you can’t change anything but that is an illusion. Part of this journey is to awaken to your true power and potential. You are, in fact, much more powerful than you realize, but it doesn’t just happen. It takes seeking, healing, self-knowing, and effort to see through the illusions, especially in today’s time where we are constantly bombarded with distractions and stress.

For a moment, allow yourself to dream beyond the confines of your current reality. What do you see for yourself? What does your inner wisdom tell you? What is your higher self trying to guide you towards?

Slow down. Be quiet. Listen.

It starts within yourself. The answers are there. People used to tell me that and I got so mad and frustrated – I couldn’t understand HOW to get the damn answers! Well, guess what? They were right. I just needed the right tools and guidance to help me find the way. And luckily, you’re receiving this email which means that you have a guide right at your fingertips!

Are you ready? Let’s make 2025 the year of self-transformation it is intended to be.

Ready for more? Need help? Tired of living the “same old shit different day” life? Schedule a free consultation today. You are not alone and you CAN have a life of fulfillment and joy. We can explore and discuss where you are, where you want to be, and how we can help you so you can make 2025 more of what you want, and less of what you've had.
