While I have always loved ringing in the New Year and looking forward to a fresh perspective, I have also struggled with real downer mind games, self doubt and negative self talk during this powerful time of year. 

On Monday, there was a New Moon. No, I’m not a professional astrologer and I don’t base all my life decisions on astrology, but I do find comfort and sometimes guidance or ideas in the cycles of the planets and the moon.

I’ve been especially paying attention to New Moons lately after learning that they can signify new beginnings, new strength and new power. Who doesn’t want a new beginning right now?

I’ve fallen in love…

…with my morning meditation!

Every morning I wake up, get my lemon water and then head back to my bedroom for my morning meditation.
