Do you make New Year's Resolutions? I used to, and I do love the opportunity during the new year and the dark days of winter to do some reflecting. I came across the idea of making a more/less list a few years ago (thanks to illustrator ), and I have loved setting intentions in this way since!
What do you want more of in your life?
What can you do with less of?
I made a fun blank pdf (free) in case you want somewhere to start writing your own list (link in comments below).
Here's to a year with a little more intention, congruence, and making choices that resonate with who we want to be.
Sending peace.

I love this quote from Elizabeth Gilbert. In the book Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear, Gilbert writes this in reference to creative living and creativity. Personally, this resonates with me in all sorts of ways. As a therapist, some of the most remarkable moments in therapy happen when people find those strange jewels, that is, when they realize their unique strengths, gifts, or areas of resilience and begin to add it to their story of themselves.

To me, those moments feel ‘magic’ every time they happen. ✨💎
