It’s the beginning of a new year! It seems really hard to believe, but 2022 is officially over and 2023 has begun. I don’t know about you, but I really enjoy the beginning of a new year. It’s a great opportunity to get started on something new. This year I’d really like to try to worry less, draw more and find more time for meditation, among other things.

What goals do you have for yourself this year? Do you feel motivated by the new year, or overwhelmed? It can feel very stressful to have high expectations for making changes during the year, only to find that the challenges have followed you along with the excitement. Just know that it’s ok to have a setback. You can pick up right where you are and keep trying, and that is totally ok. It may not be perfect progress, but it is still progress, and it still counts. 

This year I’ve made some changes. My intentions are to bring more positivity into my life, to cultivate that which I love, and to stress less about those things that aren’t really helping me. I know I’ll have to adjust my strategy as I go, but it feels good to start. 

I hope that for you this year brings a lot of positivity and room for your imagination to flourish. Take care of your dreams, nurture them and believe in them. May this be the year your dreams take flight.

Happy New Year!
