Ooh this is always so hard for me. I’m thinking “full” or “rich”... I want a year of big, deep emotions and experiences and adventures and insights and I want to feel everything. I’m tired of it being considered “cool” to be numb and detached and dissociated!!

One year I picked enough, and it served me really well. I am enough as I am, and enough is enough with bullshit.

I've been trying to think of my word but also being patient with the process. Someone once told me, 'let your word of the year by the word it wants to be, not what you think it should be.' That inspired a sense of patience when it comes to realizing my word of the year. My word for 22' was 'fun, ' which might have been lofty. It wasn't a miserable year, but the fun is overstating it. The word that's been rising to the surface is 'understanding', but we'll see.

I’m trying to choose: healing, rest, rooted 🤲🏿 Oooh, and also thinking about “not being attached to any outcome” … not sure if there’s a word for it other than non-attachment but I think that sounds too cold.

I’m going with ‘nourish’ this year - also healing my relationship with food and exercise and wanting to reflect that need for reconnection with my body, mind and soul. Perhaps ‘unity’ would also be a good one...
