If you're like me, New Year's can be an emotionally mixed time. Everyone is posting their "Best of 2019" on Instagram, and we may be feeling that we didn't do enough, or don't have the "perfect plans" for tonight.
I've had some life-changing, heart-expanding New Year's celebrations, living my dreams, and then I've also had some years where I felt introverted (in a bad way), disappointed, and lonely.
So, I have an exercise for you!
Take a piece of paper + write down any negative recurring thought you've had in your head, about yourself or any aspect of your life. Maybe it has to do with 2019, or New Year's, what you didn't accomplish, what's "wrong," etc.
Try to write a whole page, if you can. Dig deep.
Then, get out a few more sheets of paper.
Go through each statement + change it into a Positive Affirmation. Write these Positive Affirmations in a list on your clean sheets of paper. Make them flowery + expansive, if you can!
Write the Positive Affirmations in the present tense, and make them expansive, yet believable.
For instance, "I didn't hit my financial goals in 2019" can turn into "I am wildly financially abundant. I always have 10X more money than I need."
Or, "My 2019 sucked" can turn into "I am always in the right place at the right time. The Universe has a perfect plan for me. I have an amazing success story."
Maybe you are celebrating some big wins tonight, and that is amazing too!
For years, I've been using Leonie Dawson's My Shining Year in Business and Life Workbooks to reflect on my year, and set detailed intentions and goals for the coming year. These workbooks give you a chance to dream BIG!
I've also been using Daily Affirmation Calendars for years + years. I love Sarah Love's I Stand for Love Calendar and Louise Hay's I Can Do It 2020 Calendar. They both feel connected to astrology + the cosmos.
I am also a spiritual moon/earth-based feminist, so I love and use the We'Moon Calendar every year.
I'm kind of calendar obsessed.
And by the way, I recommend laminating your list of Positive Affirmations when you're done! That way, you can carry it around with you in your laptop case, in your car, next to your bed, etc.
This is not to spiritually bypass our real feelings, and the real healing that they contain.
But sometimes, the same messages are playing over and over in our head, like a bad commercial.
If you wouldn't watch our current President on TV, then why would you listen to that made-up nonsense in your head??!
Love + Blessings!
