LIFEBOOK’S YEAR-END
REFLECTION RITUAL
“What we call the beginning is often the end.
And to make an end is to make a beginning.
The end is where we start from.”
-T. S. Eliot
There’s something absolutely magical about this time of year: the twinkling lights, cozy fires, joyous cheer being spread by everyone, and perhaps most exciting of all, the anticipation of turning the page to a new chapter in lives.
It’s a season of celebration, love, and self-reflection.
In honor of this magical time, we have a reflection ritual here at Lifebook that takes place each December. It looks something like this: light some candles, brew a cup of hot cocoa or pour a glass of champagne, and settle in for a few hours of open-hearted honesty and reflection by the fireside.
The ritual is done with simple questions, which are designed to call forth mighty truth, acceptance and growth from the depths of your being.
Enjoy this magical process, and make this New Year a beautiful expression of your wildest wishes and deepest dreams.
