Reflect Before You Rush

This week is about slowing down, finding gratitude, and grounding yourself before the next chapter begins.

You’ve nourished your body, moved with intention, and learned to breathe through stress — now it’s time to pause and reflect.

The end of the year isn’t about more hustle; it’s about harvesting perspective.
Reflection helps you see how far you’ve come, honor what mattered, and release what doesn’t need to follow you into the new year.

This week’s invitation: slow down, look back, and choose what you want to carry forward.

The Power Of Reflection


Reflection gives us the space to slow down before the next chapter begins.
It’s how we honor what we’ve learned, release what no longer serves us, and reconnect with what matters most.

These prompts are here to help you close the year with gratitude and intention. Take a few minutes each day — or whenever you need to come back to yourself — and write freely. There’s no right or wrong way to reflect.

I hope you feel a little lighter, a little stronger, and a whole lot more you.
