With an onslaught of free *and* purchased new year’s series to try, you can find it overwhelming… which defeats the purpose for a new and improved you.
I personally have signed up for Yoga With Adriene’s MOVE… this starts January 1st with an introduction. Movement doesn’t officially begin until the 2nd. I’ve been looking forward to this one, because the past two months my home practice has taken a hit due to all of the holiday shenanigans. Which, again, defeats the purpose… yoga is a tool to keep you sane! You need it most during holiday shenanigans. Maybe I’ll figure out that particular balance in 2022.
I’ve also signed up for Donna Eden’s 10 Days of Joy, which also starts on the first day of January. These will be little videos of tapping the happy spots. I bombed it last year; I have the gusto to do it this upcoming year, though… I’ll keep you posted.
Lastly, through Commune, I’ve signed up for Grounding into Grace with Schulyer Grant. I was first introduced to her during another one of Commune’s challenges that I wrote about; luckily this one doesn’t start until mid-January which I think is brilliant marketing. However, it may be harder to continue since I’d be doubling up on my yoga practice and I do not want to injure myself!
So having said that, remember — take a little bit of time, daily, to breathe it all in, exhale it all out, see with your eyes, feel with your heart. You don’t need any of these external programs to inherit the wealth of joy — you just need your open heart and mind. Remember to be receptive to the gifts that are out there, even when things are grim. The darker it is in your life, the more these little bursts of sunshine will matter.
2022 will see the end of our color journey together — indigo and violet should be up in January. I finally got some citrine gems to infuse water — I’ll be reporting on that, too. By mid-year I hope to be publishing at least twice a month with the help of a friend or two (you know who you are!), but wherever this journey leads us, let’s be swell together on it, shall we?
Happy New Year!
