In reflection last year was a year of release for me. Sometimes we try to set an intention for the year and then take action to create it, and some years an intention sets out for us. Release was after me in the best way during 2017 and with it came many great lessons. I was able to let go of so many material items, material attitudes and material aspirations. I let go of fears and heavy relationships. I moved past mental blocks that had a deep hold and released. I have drawn insights that I’m excited to share, insights that have helped me and I hope others as well. When we come out of a season of struggle and resistance we often take with us some unhealthy coping skills and thought processes and last year I worked through so many of mine one by one, painfully so. Last year reminded me that there is still so much good to come sometimes we just have to work to create it. Carrying the hard stuff long after the lesson has passed can be a choice, I chose to release what was no longer serving me. All this to look ahead to a new year and new growth, and for that I’m grateful. Hello there 2018, cheers to you!
