Hearts Rising's weekly intention for Monday, January 3, 2026 - (Self-Care with Endless Possibilities): Together with intending deep healing for loved ones and personal needs held in our hearts and spoken aloud into our Sacred Circle of Love, Light and Healing, we offer our monthly Health and Wellbeing Self-Care Intention to nourish and replenish body, mind and spirit. The effects of nurturing the nurturers ripple out to recalibrate and regenerate the health and wellbeing of families, friendships, communities, provinces/states, nations, governments and economies into thriving collectives of dynamic rich wholeness. Specific to these days, we hold ongoing care and support for people and communities affected by social, political and civil unrest, violence, rage politics, extreme weather events and all aspects of life-interrupted – may grace touch all hearts, protection envelope all people, support be seamless, and resolution be immediate and complete.

Self-Care Intention: I live in optimal health. I have the capacity, and accept personal responsibility, to show up in the fullness of my authenticity and the richness of my complexities with curiosity, respect, and discernment. I nurture personal resilience. Ease, grace and a full heart envelope me. I am fully resourced, self-aware and grounded in the present moment. Anchored in my power and connected to the God/Divine/Higher Power of my understanding, I open to life’s richness with courage, humility and the willingness to look within and do the work. I move through life with a growth mindset, respect, gratitude and trust, as inspired action breathes new life into a world of possibilities aligned with my highest good. I am rested, relaxed, strong, resilient, whole and healthy on all levels. And, I am safe, healthy and well, in all ways.

WE Envision, Sense and Hold the intention as complete as we activate all of our senses in the experience of personal power, rich discernment and soul-nourishing renewal on all levels with re-awakened self-awareness, curiosity and an appreciation of who I am as an individual - from the fullness of my authenticity to the richness of my complexities. This Divinely-graced renewal anchored in personal strength, fuels inspired action from within - to fill, empower and guide me on my life’s journey. I stand in full expansion, with gratitude - knowing that as self-care nourishes and restores me, it simultaneously restores, renews and recalibrates the health and wellbeing of all those whose paths I cross as I participate in thriving collectives of dynamic rich wholeness and contribute to a peace-filled, safe, abundantly blessed and healthy world for all. And, I am safe, healthy and well in all ways.

Always interesting to see science affirming wellness strategies 💕✨

Neuroimaging studies, including fMRI research, show that self-talk significantly influences brain networks involved in motivation, self-awareness, and executive control.

Positive self-talk can enhance activity in the prefrontal cortex and reward system, boosting confidence, motivation, and goal-directed behavior.

Conversely, negative self-talk, such as self-criticism, can trigger stress responses and reduce activation in reward-related regions, hindering motivation and well-being.

The default mode network (DMN), active during self-reflection, is particularly affected by the tone of inner dialogue. Excessive negative self-talk may lead to over-activation, contributing to rumination, anxiety, depression, and even physical health problems.

Engaging in positive, intentional self-talk can strengthen neural connections that support self-esteem, motivation, and emotional resilience. Small daily habits of affirmations or compassionate inner dialogue may have measurable impacts on brain function and overall mental health.

BOTTOM FACT: Positive self-talk strengthens prefrontal and reward networks, while negative self-talk over-activates the DMN, affecting motivation, self-perception, and emotional well-being.

Love this♥✨🙏

As this year draws to a close, there’s an opportunity to pause and reflect, not with judgment, but with curiosity and openness. Every year brings experiences to be acknowledged — the challenges, the surprises, the turns in the road, the lights that went out, and the joys that shone brightly. When we pause to consider what the year has shown us, its wisdom integrates naturally.

With hindsight, we notice where synchronicity guided our attention. Now we breathe in the present moment, aware of how far we’ve come. Remember, as this month approaches its end, there’s no need to rush toward what comes next. Take the time to savor the peace that comes from pausing and noticing all that surrounds you.

The insights you’ve gained will travel with you, ready to guide the year ahead. 🕯️✨

This season can quietly ask a lot of us.
