Exactly, and these prompts are like a roadmap for that. Okay, take the first section roadmap for that. Okay, Take the first section spring beginnings.

Speaker 1:

Okay.

Speaker 2:

There's one that asks what new activities do you want to start this spring, instead of just letting spring happen to us? It's like we're consciously choosing how we want to align with it.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I feel we often forget we have that choice. You know, we get so caught up in the day to day.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, totally.

Speaker 1:

I'm curious what jumps out at you in this section.

Speaker 2:

This is one prompt. It asks how can you refresh your daily routine this spring?

Speaker 1:

Oh, interesting.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, it's easy to fall into routines, and they're not all bad, but spring's this reminder that we can always hit the refresh button.

Speaker 1:

Right.

Speaker 2:

Even on the small stuff.

Speaker 1:

I like that.

Speaker 2:

What about you?

Speaker 1:

What speaks to you. There's one that's really speaking to me. What small act of courage can you do this spring? Well, that's a good one. It's not about needing to make some big life altering leap, but maybe there's something you've been putting off just out of fear or whatever Spring's like. Hey, maybe now's the time to finally try that thing. I love that. It's like spring gives us permission to be a little bolder right okay, so it's not all just about like doing new things, is it?

Speaker 1:

right there's also this whole aspect of just experiencing spring that I think we sometimes miss yeah and this next section your spring environment really dives into that oh, absolutely have you had a chance to look at this section yet?

Speaker 2:

I have, yeah, yeah, and I love how it's like mindfulness, but with a spring twist. Yeah, you know. Yes.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, Like there's this prompt what's your favorite place to visit only during spring? It's not just about like being outside.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

But noticing what's unique about being outside now.

Speaker 2:

I think that's so key.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

You know, because we can get so used to our surroundings, even the beautiful ones, that we stop really seeing them. And our senses are such a powerful tool, you know, for connecting with the present moment which, let's face, it can be hard to do sometimes.

Speaker 1:

For real. Okay, so this next section, spring growth, is where things get really interesting for me, because it's not just about the flowers and trees, right, right.

Speaker 2:

It's about us too.

Speaker 1:

It's about us growing too Exactly, and this prompt what are some habits you'd like to clear out, Like spring cleaning?

Speaker 2:

really hit me. That's a good one. Yeah yeah. What often comes up for people this time of year is that connection between our physical space and our mental space. It time of year is that connection between our physical space and our mental space. It's like decluttering your mind.

Speaker 1:

Oh yeah.

Speaker 2:

It's like you might declutter your closet or something.

Speaker 1:

It's so true. You know I'm a big fan of vision boards and setting goals, but this prompt what's something you're proud of achieving since last spring is such a good reminder to look back to.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Like we can get so focused on what's next Right that we forget to celebrate how far we've come already.

Speaker 2:

Such a good point because acknowledging our wins, even the small ones, is crucial for staying motivated.

Speaker 1:

Yes.

Speaker 2:

Like giving ourselves that pat on the back which, let's be honest, we don't always do enough.

Speaker 1:

Totally Okay, so we've talked about starting fresh.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

We've talked about connecting with our environment, focusing on growth. This next section your spring reflections sounds like where we take a minute to really process it all.

Speaker 2:

Exactly. It's interesting you say that because this one how has your energy shifted with the longer daylight hours is so relevant to me.

Speaker 1:

Oh, tell me more about that.

Speaker 2:

Well, our bodies aren't machines Right, even though we sometimes treat them like they are.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

You know, spring's a good time to tune into those natural rhythms, I think.

Speaker 1:

So true, I know I always feel more energized this time of year, but it's also easier to get caught up in that and overdo it. Right? This section feels like a reminder to be intentional Even with that extra energy. Okay, so that leads us nicely to the final section, looking forward to summer.

Speaker 2:

Okay.

Speaker 1:

I love how this whole journal prompt collection keeps things moving. You know like we've reflected on all the spring stuff, but how do we actually carry that forward?

Speaker 2:

Right like building a bridge almost from one season to the next. Yeah, both literally and mentally. And this prompt what intentions do you want to carry with you from spring into summer?

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

That one really stood out to me Interesting.

Speaker 1:

Tell me more about that.

Speaker 2:

It's about, you know, taking those lessons, those insights we've been talking about and making them a part of our, like you know, ongoing journey.

Speaker 1:

It's so easy to just get to the end of any season, even one as awesome as spring.

Speaker 2:

Right.

Speaker 1:

And just be like well, that was nice, but back to reality.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

But this is like no way. What did we learn? What do we want to keep with us?

Speaker 2:

Exactly, and this whole idea of intentionality.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

You know that's so powerful. Yeah, you know. There's actually a study from the University of California that found that people who wrote down their goals were significantly more likely to achieve them. Wow, it's like just by putting it out there, even just on paper, we're making a commitment to ourselves.

Speaker 1:

Okay, I am all about that. You know, what's been really cool about like diving into these pomps with you today is that it's made me realize this whole spring renewal thing doesn't have to be limited to just spring.

Speaker 2:

You're totally right. You know, think about it. We go through so many transitions in life, that's true, big and small, yeah. New jobs moving, maybe ending some relationships, those are all like mini springs in a way.

Speaker 1:

Oh, that's a good point.

Speaker 2:

And we can use these same prompts, these same reflective practices to navigate those changes too.

Speaker 1:

Whoa.

Speaker 2:

Right.

Speaker 1:

Mind blown. So, it's like having this toolkit for personal growth that we can pull out anytime, not just when the flowers are blooming.

Speaker 2:

And that's what I love about this it's about empowering ourselves to take control of our own growth, no matter what season of life we're in.

Speaker 1:

This has been such an eye-opening conversation. I don't know about you, but I'm feeling ready to dust off my journal and really dive into some of these prompts.

Speaker 2:

Me too.

Speaker 1:

And to our listeners. We'd love to hear what resonates with you Absolutely.

Speaker 2:

Which prompts speak to you? What are you hoping to bloom into this spring? Let us know.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Because, remember, growth is always better shared.

Speaker 1:

So true, and on that note we'll wrap up this deep dive. Until next time, keep those journals handy and remember your life's not just a spring. It's full of springs just waiting to be explored.
