Happy New Year!
In
this New Year's Blog, I want to share with you a tweet from Rev. Anne Presuel's tweet. She shared a New Year
ritual for co-creation with the Divine.
I have come to realize that New Year resolutions are worthless. Instead, co create your goals with the
Divine. Below is her process. I created my goals this morning, I then created affirmation for each goal. I will each morning send Reiki (or prayerful
intent for non Reiki practitioners) to each goals and affirmation asking for the
Divine's help. Remember In all things, be grateful.
Thank you Rev. Anne Presuel @RevAnne1
for the post and beautiful New Years ritual.
Anne's sacred
New Year's Eve Divine Co-Creation ritual:
It's New Year's
Eve! For many, it's an evening of celebration and fun. All across
the world, we gather together with friends and family and enjoy one
another. We celebrate the year that has completed and we dream of a new
and better year to come.
For the past 20
years, I've been participating in a sacred New Year's Eve Divine Co-Creation
ritual that I want to share with you. (This is the gift I was talking
about.)
Here's how it
goes:
1) Light a favorite candle.
2) Put on
some soft, inspiring music.
3) Get
your journal and a favorite pen.
4) Get
comfortable in a favorite chair, a corner of your sofa, or snuggle up in bed -
wherever you feel most inspired and happy (and can write easily).
5) Get
grounded and present. Close your eyes and take a few deep breaths.
6) Ask
yourself this question:
What is it I wish to create in my business and my life in
2013?
7) Begin
to write what comes to you. Break it down into categories (choose from
the following or create your own):
a) My Business;
b) My
Relationships;
c) My
Spirituality
d) My
Health;
e) My
Finances;
f)
My Home;
g) My
Community;
h) My
Enjoyment;
i)
My Daily Life;
j)
Whatever else you can think of that's left.
I have found
that every year, as I look back at what I wrote the year before, many (and
sometimes all!) of my intentions have come into manifestation (and often in
very interesting ways).
Here are a
couple of suggestions to help you as you do this:
- Be patient; this takes time - both to write
them down and to see them manifest.
- Get specific. If you want a great new
relationship, what does that look like? Who is this person? The
clearer you are, the easier it is for the Divine to bring it to you.
- Say "This or something better"
to leave room for the Divine to bring to you that which is perfect for
you.
- Say "Thank You"
to the Divine when you have finished.
- Feel the gratitude for where you are in your life
right now, and recognize and acknowledge the myriad ways in which you are
always being provided.
One
last tip:
Use a specific journal
Be sure it's
something special - not a spiral-bound notebook with college-ruled white
paper... you know what I mean?
By doing this
you dedicate your intention-setting and hold it to be sacred by treating it
with honor.
Think of it
this way: when you do this, you are sending a message to the Divine that
this is very important.
And it's alot
of fun to look back at previous years' intention-setting exercises and see how
you have grown both in your consciousness and in your ability to bring your
intentions into being.
Enjoy doing
this exercise. Co-creation with the Divine is lots of fun, so play with
it!
And... may you
have a very beautiful, very blessed 2013!
Hugs, Anne
