227 The Year-End Downshift: Reflow. Refocus. Release. Receive. (A Practice for Creating Space for What Matters))

When I think about the power of the last 4 weeks of the year we are completing, and the first 4 weeks of the year to come, I wonder what it would be like if our culture reflected and supported people to: turn inward to their creativity ... turn toward each other in meaningful connectivity... and to tune into their body/mind/heart/spirit for what they needed to restore and regnerate at deep levels. 

I imagine a world in which we were taught that these last 4 weeks of a year cycle have so much wisdom and freedom to give us ... if we create the space to reflect and honor all we have done and become ...

And as we turn toward the next cycle consciously consider what we choose to release and leave behind ... so as we step into the next cycle, we can more fully co-create the next while living the now.

Last year, I realized that I had been doing year-end podcasts and blogs since 2007 - focused on avoiding holiday overwhelm, starting and ending the year differently, living with the cycles, completing the year clear ... so much wisdom and practice there still totally relevant - I put these episodes in the Series Library for You Here. 

This year ... I tuned into what we needed to support us in this bigger cycle shift we are headed into, to elevate the conversation, and open ourselves up to the co-creative power that is here for us ... if we create the space.

Here's the Wisdom I Received:
Create Space for Inspired Creativity + Meaningful Connectivity + Restoring Your Deeper Wellbeing 

Tune in and I'll lead you through this to apply in your life and reality now, including:

• Lean into & Embrace Creativity. Release the pull to more producivity.  
• Use the practice of Reflow and Refocus to create space 
• Create Space for what you are co-creating in the next year/cycle by Releasing the roles, responsibilities, and roots that you no longer need/no longer serve going forward 
• Create Space for Restoring at deep levels - mind/body/heart/spirit - by saying NO to what subtracts from your creativity, connectivity, and wellbeing, and YES to what supports
• Try the Holiday Self Sustainability Practice - Choose 3 Harmonzing Words + Release 1 Sabotaging Habit and Embrace 1 Supportive Habit  

It's a juicy way to open to receive in ways that keep on giving, even after Jan 1, in ways that don't add calories or credit card debt :) 

With great heart,

Christine
