WORD OF THE YEAR 2025

this year I am focusing on the word...

CONNECT!!

Here it is, written in my Currently Workbook.

( I have a few in my shop. It’s not too late to start!)

I wrote some notes & included the definition in my Hobonichi cousin.

This year, I have some questions to figure out:

How do I CONNECT with myself?

How can/do I CONNECT with others?

How does this CONNECTION feel?

I already have a headstart because I mapped it out in my hobonichi, last year!

How do you connect with yourself? How do you FEEL PRESENT in your mind, body, and soul?

Earlier this month, I got started on a vision board with an art date with friends!

This is mine for the word CONNECT.

This year I will work on connecting with myself before I connect with others.

When I am connected to myself, I have more agency.

Picking a word for the year helps me set an intention and tone for the new year. It gives me something to meditate on. It’s a ritual I enjoy a lot. Speaking of…

Last year my word was RITUAL.

I studied the beginning and the ending of rituals. I shared some of my favorite rituals (including my morning pages) and started an accountability group called Self-Check-In to keep on top of my calendar and plan out my week with others.

2019: VALUE

2020: GROW

2021: CARE

2022: SPIRIT

2023: NOURISH

2024: RITUAL

How about you? Do you have a word for the year?
