Ready to start this New Year with focus?

One of the best ways to get clarity is to choose a word, ONE word to focus on, to dive into, to be your theme for the year.

In 2016, I chose LOVE to be that word.

I’ve spent the last 12 months really exploring what love means to me. I asked:
  • How do I allow myself to give and receive love?
  • Where am I limiting myself in love?
  • How can I do all things with more love?
Through this process, I learned a lot about myself. Where I hold back, where I get stuck, where I feel afraid. Through a deeper relationship with my word, LOVE, it’s helped me open up more, relax more and allow myself to feel safe, comfortable and happy to let in all the abundance, happiness, opportunities and change that has come my way this year.

And now it’s time for me to choose a new word.

Here are 3 Ways to Help You Tune into Your Word for 2017
1. Ask
Get quiet and simply ask: What is my word for 2017? Is there something I could benefit from focusing on?
Here are a few words I have chosen in the past: trust, faith, peace, dream, balance...

2. Use A Book
If you’ve asked and nothing comes to you, you can always try this cool trick.
Grab a book, any book, off the shelf and close your eyes. Think abot your word for the year and then randomly open the book. See where your eye lands and what it reveals.

3. Meditate On It
Once a word comes to you, try it on. Settle into the energy of that word.
  • How does it feel?
  • Is there an opportunity for learning and growth?
  • Is this where you need to go in 2017?

If the answers feel affirming, you’re on the right track. Don’t be dismayed if you feel scared. That’s often a pre-requisite to change.

Usually, when I feel excited and afraid, then I know I'm onto something BIG!

Have fun with this and see where it takes you.

So, I picked my word: JOY! Here’s to a ridiculously amazing 2017!

XOXO
