🌅 New Year, New Intentions 🌅
As we stand at the threshold of a new year, we invite you to approach 2026 with intention rather than resolution.
Resolutions often feel like demands we place on ourselves—rigid goals that can leave us feeling defeated when life happens. But intentions? Intentions are different. They're gentle guideposts that remind us of who we want to become and how we want to show up in the world.
Some intentions to consider:
This year, I intend to be kinder to myself when things don't go as planned.
I intend to honor my needs and set boundaries that protect my peace.
I intend to celebrate small victories along the way.
I intend to ask for help when I need it.
I intend to trust my own healing process and timeline.
Remember: Growth isn't linear. Healing isn't perfect. And you don't have to have it all figured out on January 1st—or ever.
Your intention can be as simple as "I intend to take things one day at a time" or "I intend to be present." There's no wrong answer. There's only what feels true for you.
What intention will guide your journey this year?
Here's to a year of compassion, growth, and gentle forward movement.
With hope and support,
The Changing Tides Team
