It's In the Steps Taken

Happy New Year! I hope you rang in the new year in the way that was just right for you! We had a fabulous fish fry and played many rounds of Golden Girl's bingo in honor of Betty White's passing.

I have been holding the vibration of the laughter and fun we shared as my intention for 2022. This time of year can be triggering, evoke anxiety, and at the same time be a window looking out to great change. I have been asking myself, "where is the love here, where is the lightness here," as I navigate through January's waters. Advertisements and the voice of the collective can produce messaging that targets some of our innermost insecurities. Perhaps it hits the right note to encourage change and on the other hand it might debilitate and paralyze.

As I reflect on the lifestyle changes that I am stepping into I notice how the energy of needing to fix things and even attempt to be perfect arise. It takes real conscious thought and action for me to not get coiled into those energy fields. I have been reminding myself to take one step at a time, one day at a time, that change, a new habit, a new way, is comprised of many steps. Steps bring me forward and then sometimes backward, but not to the place I was. I retain the new muscle memory of what it is to step forward and can carry on. So one step at a time, building, noticing, experiencing and consciously choosing, I take a moment to span my vision up and out and look at all of the brave steps it takes to be on the journey.

What have you been noticing as you entered into 2022? What are you being asked? Who are you being asked to be? I'd love to hear from you! Drop me an email.

Wishing you moments of gentle reflection as we approach a new year!

Much love to you and your spirit,

Sara
