Not everything that fills you up belongs on a calendar or a to-do list. Some things belong on a menu you can return to—on loud days, quiet days, and everything in between.

This isn’t about productivity or self-improvement. It’s about noticing what actually brings you back into your body, your joy, your life… and giving yourself permission to order it more than once (or never again).

Think of this as a living list—one that changes with the seasons, your capacity, and who you’re becoming.

Save this for the days you don’t know what you need yet. Share it with someone you’d happily sit at the table with or tag a friend you want at your 2026 dopamine dinners—and tell us in the comments: what would you add to your menu?

Peace isn’t something you stumble into. It’s something you build one step at a time. The new year is a great time to grow with intention, not pressure. When you take small steps toward emotional safety, change becomes sustainable. Let peace lead your way this year. 🕊️

💫Create a 5 minute reset routine 💫
Stretching, deep breathing, drinking water, stepping outside for fresh air are all great resets.
Once you feel overwhelmed, practice your reset routine. This will help remind your nervous system that you are safe. Establish this routine and it will soon become a habit that serves you well in 2026!

Some of the most meaningful gifts this season aren’t wrapped, tagged, or waiting under the tree — but they often matter more than anything that is.
Gratitude doesn’t always show up as joy or calm or clarity.
Sometimes it looks like your shoulders dropping an inch, or a breath you didn’t realize you were holding finally letting go.
These are the small, quiet things that help your nervous system feel safe enough to rest — not because life is easy, but because you noticed what was already holding you.
No fixing. No forcing. Just paying attention to what helps you stay.
We'd love for you to share this with someone who comes to mind!
