Are you ready to discover the power of having a word of the year? It's a simple yet impactful practice that can transform your intentions and focus for the next 12 months. Unlike setting resolutions that often fade away with time, choosing a word of the year provides a guiding light that you can carry with you every day.
Imagine having a word that represents where you want to be in your life, what you want to cultivate, or what you want to focus on. This word becomes a powerful reminder, a mantra, and an affirmation that you can integrate into your daily routine. It's about manifesting that word and living into the ideal it represents.
Let me share my personal experience with you. Two years ago, I chose the word "passion" because I was feeling disconnected from my teaching career. I created a keychain with the word and put it somewhere I would see it every day. I journaled about times I felt passionate and took steps towards aligning my life with my passions. This simple practice helped me identify where I wanted to go and kept me on a path of passion throughout the year.
That year, I started a kids yoga business and started teaching at a dance studio and afterschool program. I felt so much passion in my life.
Two years ago, I decided to embrace the word "shine." I was ready to let my light shine and share my passions with the world. I created art with the word, made affirmations, and had it displayed in my office as a constant reminder. It guided me towards growth and stepping into my true potential.
During that year, I found my voice and was able to write a chapter in two book collaborations as well as publish my own journal with all of the mindfulness practices that keep me embodied and present in my life.
Where intention goes, energy flows.
Now, it's your turn to discover the power of choosing a word of the year. Start by exploring what resonates with you and what you want to invite into your life. It could be a quality, a feeling, or a direction you want to move in. Experiment with different words and see what feels right for you. Once you've chosen your word, find creative ways to incorporate it into your daily life. Write it in your planner, create artwork, make affirmations, and repeat it to yourself throughout the day.
You may be surprised by the transformative effects of this simple practice. It's time to set your intentions and let your word of the year guide you towards living a life aligned with your deepest desires.
