Feminine Power Time: Permission to Slow Start Your Year:
5 inquiries to Root Into What Matters Most to You

There are many things you could do this year, many things you think you should do, or maybe this year you have no idea what to do!? Or maybe you are feeling like you’d rather just pull the cover over your head.

  • DON’T: Let the chaos and pressure of the world, or the should’s of your self-induced pressure swirl you up or stop you from breaking through to more elevated, expanded, supportive realities. 
  • DO: Turn inward, tune into your heart and tap into your deeper wisdom and desires. Dare to let those inspire and guide you.
  • DO: Choose to tune into Wisdom before you choose your focuses for this year…that higher guidance saying “Focus here! Here is where the flow and momentum are!”   

Wisdom teaches us to use the practice of “inquiry” to consider the path before moving into action… which results in more easeful effort, sustainable success + fluid efficiency (plus keeps us light, which we need during challenging times, to keep us sustained.)

Wisdom requires us to slow down, to hear the insights and guidance. So we practice the “Slow Start Our Year” and intentionally give ourselves space to hear our deeper truth and wisdom. 

If we want to access Wisdom vs. just more mental ideas, we need to FEEL not THINK our way forward. See the 4 stages of Co-Creation below from Overwhelmed and Over It to see visually what I’m talking about:

CONSIDER THIS: Your mind can only create what it’s done or seen before. If we want things to be different, we have to go deeper – into our hearts, bodies, and “subtle energy” realms.

Which also means we also need something to ‘do’ — we can’t just sit around and wait for insight to drop in, LOL.

Every January I pull a small set of potent inquiries from the Emerge Visioning process that are like portals into a more expansive possibility, higher intelligence, and guidance. This morning I combed through the inquiries in the Emerge Journal an pulled 5 to get you started  visioning, intention setting & focusing for the year to come. 

Here are this year’s inquiries:

  1. GIVE + RECEIVE:  What do I most need to / desire to receive this year?  What matters most to me to give my focus, energy, resources and time to?
  2. INNER GROWTH:  What is my growth path and stretch point about this year?
  3. ROOT IN: What can I root into that will support me to stay centered and sustained this year ? (ex. practice, people, place, purpose)
  4. STOP. EXPLORE. CREATE from MOMENTUM:  What do I desire to STOP? to EXPLORE? to CREATE from momentum? (what already has momentum that I can continue to grow and receive from?)
  5. FEEL: What do I desire to feel in each of the 4 realms of my whole life:  Wellbeing Foundation? Work in the World? Relationships? Heart & Spirit?As you go through these, remember the 4 parts of your whole life – see glyph below.Whole Life Focalizer Christine Arylo
