One Balanced Life

My New Year's ritual involves coming up with a word that will guide me through the new year. I was introduced to the idea in the last few years and love it (as the concept of resolutions never resonated with me). I pick a word that inspires, excites, and challenges me. One that symbolizes what I want and need and how I want to be in the coming months. I've been asked how do you come up with the word and the answer is the process of "finding" it is different for all of us...and can be different every year.  This year was no exception..the word choose me. After arriving at my word I start to reflect on and play with the word to see what gift(s) it has for me. I also usually like to find or make visual reminders of my word so I can continue to led it be a guide on my journey.

Check out Christine Kane blog for a great word discovery tool and Ali Edward site for some more fun stuff.

If you'd like some more support it coming with the perfect word for you, contact me to set up an individual coaching session. I am offering a New Year's special - good through the end of January for new clients ($50 session). We'll have some fun playing with the possibilities and clarifying your intentions for 2011!

Enjoy!
