Whatever season of life you find yourself in, remember there are gifts and lessons in every landscape you roam. Your happiness reaps new insight, and your sadness garners more awareness.

It’s time for us to embrace the duality of our beings and love every single part of ourselves. Even if some of those parts seem unlovable, even if it’s difficult to face yourself, even if you struggle throughout the process – show up as you are and allow yourself to be as you are.

The energy that I’m feeling for the new year is one of balance, ease, and flow. I don’t want to be so rigid in one way of thinking or being that it prevents me from tapping into my emotions and body to see where my energy wants to travel.

When we cling too tightly to specific mindsets, practices, diets, and perspectives, we block ourselves from the flow of the present moment’s intuitiveness.

When we stick to strict schedules and don’t allot for spontaneity and newborn creation to enter our scenery, we lose out on the magic that would otherwise breach our worlds.

So, for this new year, after a year of experiencing extreme rigidness, I welcome the beauty of harmony, peace, and improvisation. I embrace the jagged path. I breathe in the power of this present moment and everything it offers.

And I hope the same for you, too. I hope you allow yourself to be flexible with all the identities within you. I hope you make space for new ways of being to emerge. I hope you are kind to yourself – all of yourself – and allow yourself to be perfectly as you are.

I’m sending you abundant love and joy. Have a fabulous year – however you choose to celebrate – and let your new year’s intentions enter your awareness like snow drifting from the winter sky.

Sending love always,
