Hello and welcome.
Happy New Year.
I am so grateful to be here with you today as we begin this new year together.
Thank you for joining me.
Let's take a moment to just pause and honor the beautiful opportunity this time brings.
The new year invites us to step into a sacred space,
A time of transformation,
The chance to rewrite our stories,
To shed what no longer serves us,
To thank the teachers of the past,
Even the challenges,
And to live more fully as the person we are meant to be.
Are you being true to you?
Are you being authentic?
Are you ready to begin the most authentic year of your life?
This year is yours,
My friend.
It's yours to make real,
To fill with the truth of who you are.
This is the year of your most authentic self.
This is your year of transformation.
You made it here.
Well done.
I am so proud of you.
Take a moment to close your eyes and feel the quiet of this moment surrounding you and wrapping around you like a blanket.
Let your shoulders soften and relax and let your breath just be.
Let its natural rhythm unfold,
Flowing gently in and out.
We breathe without having to do anything,
Without even having to think about it.
And just notice the rhythm of the world inside you.
Feel the earth beneath you,
Solid,
Steady,
Holding you,
Allowing you to be exactly as you are.
Just let yourself feel held in this moment,
This beautiful moment in the new year.
Place a hand now gently over your heart and feel its beat steady.
Our hearts keep beating as long as we're here,
Never letting us down.
You are alive,
My friend.
You're here.
This life is a gift.
We get to be here.
We get to be alive.
Take a deep breath in and let your lungs fill with air,
Filling in with the new,
With possibility.
And as you exhale,
Feel yourself rest in the safety of this space before we step into this beautiful new year together,
Before we step into the best year of your life,
The most authentic year of your life.
Let us take a moment to give gratitude,
Gently and tenderly.
Just think back to the past year.
Were there any moments that felt challenging?
Thank yourself for the strength you have that allowed you to move through them,
That allowed you to be here today.
Let go of any weight that you're carrying from this year.
I'm so proud of you.
You've grown.
You showed up for yourself.
Maybe give compassion to yourself for any moments in the past year that you maybe could allow yourself to love yourself more,
Acknowledging that you were doing your best.
Thank any wisdom from this year.
Imagine gathering all the moments from the previous year,
The joys,
The sorrows,
The lessons.
Gather them in your hands.
You can even bring your palms together and cup them in your hands.
Gather everything from the year and now imagine yourself placing them gently into a stream and just watch as the water carries them away,
Not in loss,
But in gratitude.
And now whisper softly to yourself,
Thank you for getting me here.
Thank you for being brave.
Thank you for showing up.
We made it.
I'm proud of you.
You did good.
Take another breath in and out and ask yourself,
Hand on your heart,
Am I being true to you?
Am I being true to you?
This question is not for the world or anyone else.
It's for you.
Only you know that answer.
Now imagine yourself sitting across from the truest,
Most radiant version of you,
The most authentic version of you,
The future version of you in your best year yet.
What does this person look like?
Are they glowing with confidence,
Shining?
Do they look excited to see you?
They've been waiting for you,
Patiently,
They're excited to see you.
They reach out their hands and maybe you take their hands in yours,
Feeling the warmth of their touch,
Feeling uplifted from their energy,
The energy of you,
The most authentic you.
And just pause for a moment and ask them,
What do you need from me this year?
What can I do to help you thrive?
And just listen for a moment,
Trust what they share with you.
Any sensation that comes up,
Any color or any images,
Anything,
Just listen for a moment.
Maybe it's even a whisper.
Rest more.
Rest more.
Trust yourself.
Love yourself more.
Dream.
Be true to you.
Maybe it's a feeling or a knowing.
Whatever it is that they tell you,
Just hold it close.
Just trust whatever comes up.
And now,
Let us dream together for a moment.
See yourself in the year ahead,
Living as your most authentic self.
Imagine waking up in the morning with a sense of alignment and peace,
Excited for the day,
Feeling alive,
Knowing that this day is a gift.
You can't wait for this day.
Who are the people that you see,
That you spend time with,
That surround you?
What does it feel like to be able to be authentic?
What are the places that you see yourself in?
Where would you spend your time?
What does it feel like to feel joy in your day?
Feel this joy in your body.
Feel the feeling of the most authentic you.
What does it feel like?
Is it lightness?
Is it freedom?
Feel any sensations of the truest you.
What does it feel like to be in these socks and shoes?
The undeniable truth.
And we are here to be our authentic selves,
And as you feel yourself in the socks and shoes of your most authentic self,
Let these words flow through you.
And say to yourself gently,
I am open to the possibilities of this year.
And as you hold this vision of you as your most authentic self,
Let these words flow through you like a promise.
I am open to the possibilities of this year.
This is the year I am my most authentic self.
This is the year I am true to myself.
This is the year I choose to honor my truth and dreams.
I am ready to manifest the most authentic year of my life.
Let these words,
The vibrations of these words,
Just settle into the deepest parts of you.
Let these seeds plant themselves in the beautiful soil of your heart.
Feel this promise.
Feel the sensation,
The vibrations,
The quiet power of your truth,
Of your authenticity.
And now,
Place your hand on your heart,
Coming back to this moment,
To you,
Right now,
Tell yourself softly,
Whisper these words,
I promise to be true to you.
I promise to listen to you.
I promise to love you no matter what.
I promise to be authentic.
Take one more deep breath in,
Filling your body with the vibrations of gratitude for this moment,
For this journey,
This beautiful gift of life,
And for the gift of you,
The beautiful,
Authentic,
True you.
And slowly,
Allow your eyes to open and come back into your physical space.
Welcome,
Welcome to your most authentic year yet.
This is your year of transformation.
This is the year that you are true to you,
And you are ready for it.
Happy New Year.
