One Small Promise

Question for you: What's one small promise you can make yourself this year?

This is a question I'm asking myself and offering my clients to use as a guiding light for the year ahead. The world is still too topsy-turvy to make any grand plans or sweeping goals but that doesn't mean we can't deeply care for ourselves and our dreams in small, nourishing ways.

Now, this small promise is less about committing to drink a green smoothie every morning or to never yell at your kids again but rather about choosing something that will remind you of your aliveness and reconnect you to your essence, your wisdom and your power.

Think about it as a practice of homecoming.

 

 
 

The little promise I've made myself this year is to dance my ass off whenever my body and heart feel the need for it. We are all so good at overriding the requests of our body yet these requests are the exact care we need. Self care is no big mystery. Our hearts and bodies are always telling us what will make us feel better, both physically and emotionally. The problem is we rarely take the time to listen and then honor what we hear.

With that, I made a dance video for you to get you feeling big, bold and wild. As we've all been sequestered in our homes for the last 10 months now, if there's anything we're collectively craving (besides health and safety for ourselves and our neighbors) it's to feel a little wild.

 
 

 
Connecting to our wildness through free flowing movement is one of the quickest ways to remember who we are, what matters to us and what we want to offer the world.
 

 
 

After you watch the video and dance your ass off, place a hand on your heart and ask,

"What's one small promise I can make myself this year?"

Trust the first thing that comes up and notice what shifts in your body and life as you honor that promise over the next week.
