I hope that you were able to find some time for peace, stillness, and joy during the powerful Christed light this season.

During Christmas (or Hanukkah or whichever holiday you celebrate this time of year), we can have lots of emotions. Usually, it’s a busy time with lots of activity and a lot of people. Although for some, it’s a quiet time where it can feel more lonely. Either way, it’s a time that comes with ups and downs.

Now, in the period between Christmas and New Year’s, we have this beautiful opportunity to rest and just hang out. There’s a New Moon that is giving us a powerful opportunity for inward self-reflection. It’s so magical.

Yesterday as I turned 47 (although I still feel 33), I deeply checked in with my inner child.

I’ve had a lot of time last week to really go inward and reflect on who I am, the choices I’ve made, who I want to be, and how I can be the best person I can. Usually, I’m so busy I don’t have a lot of time to do this.

This little girl thankfully is doing pretty well and playing happily, as she knows I’m looking out for her. She really wants to be good and kind, and worries when she’s not kind and how people will perceive her. She gets confused when she sees and hears mean things people say and do (I literally remember thinking “Why are people so mean to each other?” when I was about 5 or 6 and went to public school for the first time).

This perfect little girl turned into a teenager that developed some anger and rebelled. She did well in school, but she also sneaked out at night and lied to her parents. She even got in trouble at school and with the police a few times. She went out with some guys who weren’t very nice to her or to themselves. She had two sides to who she was… one sweet and good and one mischievous and edgy.

I have worked really hard on bringing these aspects of myself together… and knowing that it’s okay to have fire… and to channel that fire into love.

Today on the anniversary of my coming into this body in this life, I feel content. I am resting and allowing myself to just be, to not really *do* anything. I recognize that like us all I am always learning and growing, and that process of self-actualization and healing from all the pains of past lives (and this life) is actually really exciting and interesting.

And as we close out a new year, as always, I am deeply grateful for your being here and being open to what I share as I do my best to be of service in the highest way while living a life that feels aligned with my heart.

I want to thank you each for being here with me throughout 2024, and maybe even since I started this work (since 2016). It’s been an amazing eight years. I have learned so much and grown so much in my voice and how I work with people. It’s truly one of the greatest blessings of my life, aside from raising my children and being a companion to my husband, to be of service for you. Thank you for trusting in me.

P.S. While I’m not a huge fan of New Year’s Resolutions, I do believe that taking opportunities to reflect on what we are grateful for, what we learned, and what we intend are important. Check out below some ideas on New Year’s Intentions.

P.P.S. If you’re in Maine and want to learn more about the one known as Jesus, in less than a week, I will be doing an in-person workshop called Meet Your True Jesus at an incredible space! You’ll have the chance to connect directly with this wise Master and receive his infinite love.

The start of a new calendar year is a great time to reflect on the past and align your energy with what’s possible in the future. Here are a few ideas of what you can do to intentionally close out 2024 and prepare for 2025.

Gratitude: This is a powerful way to raise your vibration and open your heart. Write down what you feel thankful for, and be specific, from this past year.

Successes: What do you feel good about accomplishing this year? You may want to focus on how you helped another, or how you added value to someone’s life. This can bring about a sense of purpose and pride.

Learnings: Reflect on what you could have done better this year and what you learned. We can always grow from our mistakes.

Intentions: Based on the learnings you just uncovered, what are some intentions you have for 2025? What would you like to have present in your life?

Action Steps: Are there any specific action steps you’ll need to take to help these intentions manifest into reality? Keep the steps small and easy to do. You can always change them later.
