Happy New Year everybody. Welcome to 2025. And welcome to this very special episode, which is going to be a walking meditation. I love walking meditations because they combine two powerful forms of self-care movement and mindfulness. And walking allows us to feel grounded and energized, while meditation helps calm the mind and bring clarity, and together they're a beautiful way to reconnect with yourself and set intentions for the year ahead. The year ahead and I wanted to give you this gift as my New Year's gift to you so, as we step into 2025, I thought it'd be a wonderful time to try something a little different, something that allows you to move forward physically while also moving forward emotionally and mentally while also moving forward emotionally and mentally. This meditation is designed to help you release stress, connect to your inner strength and step confidently into the parent and person you want to be this year, the parent and person you identify as being this year. We'll also focus on inviting health, abundance and prosperity into your life as you walk into this new year.

Now, find a quiet, safe place to walk, indoors or outdoors, and let's begin at a comfortable pace as you move. I'll guide you through the meditation. So let's begin as you walk, take a deep breath in through your nose and exhale slowly through your mouth. Feel your feet connect with the ground beneath you With every step. Feel yourself becoming more and more grounded and steady. Notice the rhythm of your steps Right, left, right, left. Let this rhythm calm your mind and anchor you in the present moment. Allow your shoulders to relax and drop. Let your arms swing naturally by your sides. Feel the tension in your body melting away with every step. Say quietly to yourself I am here, I am present, I am calm. As you continue to walk, imagine any stress or worries you're carrying as a heavy weight on your shoulders. With each step, picture that weight becoming lighter. Inhale deeply and as you exhale, say to yourself I release what I cannot control. Feel your body becoming lighter and lighter, step by step, as you let go of tension, guilt and fear. Picture these emotions dissolving into the ground behind you, leaving you free to move forward with clarity and ease.

Now think about who you want to be this year. Not just what you want to do, but who you want to become. What qualities would you like to embody? Patience, strength, compassion, joy, strength, compassion, joy. Choose one word that resonates deeply with you and repeat it softly to yourself I am patient, strong, compassionate, joyful. As you walk, imagine yourself moving through your day with this quality guiding you. Picture yourself responding to challenges with ease and connecting with your child with love and understanding.
