Thank you to everyone who wrote together in the circle today. My heart is so grateful. I’m wishing you a year of deep contentment and possibility.
Something I’m really into is listening to and trusting my life.
I can’t quite explain how this looks other than a commitment to practicing attention and doing things that seem illogical from the outside but crystal clear in my heart. Living in this way sustains me.
To round out the year, here are five prompts that explore what life is nudging you to trust that it’s time for. They’re best written to when you’re in a relaxed state and without attachment to a full-fledged answer.
They can be revisited forever whenever you feel far from your internal compass. These ones are especially beautiful to write to with a friend.
The idea with these prompts—and all prompts I offer—is to notice what comes up in the interaction with the question (what comes up = thoughts, physical sensations, memories, mental habits like planning or doubting).
Write to that, too.
If you write to these, please let me know how it went for you as a comment or email (maggy@regardingdew.com).
What is it time to let myself have?
This might be a new standard, it might be time off, or a material object… it might be forgiveness. What’s your relationship to receiving? What are you done deferring?
What is it time to let myself feel?
Without knowing how or when, what are you willing to feel?
What is it time to let myself try in a different way?
What’s the energy you want to bring to this different approach?
What is it time to let myself trust?
What do you want to trust?
What is it time to let myself practice deeply?
This might only make sense or matter to you. It might be something so basic it feels embarrassing to admit, or it might be ambitious and lofty. Consider how it’ll impact different parts of your life and the life of others.
