Whether you’ve returned from a well-deserved holiday, pushed through an extra busy season, or are barely catching your breath amidst back-to-school prep and budget stress, welcome to 2025! 🌟
This time of year can feel like a whirlwind, can’t it? But here’s a gentle reminder: Your spark, your magic, your moreness—it’s still there, even in the chaos. And if ever there was a Made for More practice, staying connected with that spark is it.
To help you hold onto (or rediscover) your magic, here’s a menu of practices to choose from. Just one small shift can unlock big magic—no need to do it all!
A field that has rested gives a bountiful crop.

1. Protect Your Rest
Rest isn’t indulgence; it’s power. Schedule mini-pauses to breathe, stretch, or sit in stillness. Even 5 minutes is sacred.
Almost everything will work again if you unplug it for a few minutes, including you.
Anne Lamott
2. Morning Magic
Start your day with a moment of calm—a cup of tea, journaling, or a few deep breaths. A slow start creates space for clarity and intention.
3. Find the Fun
Let playfulness guide you! A puzzle, doodling, or dancing to your favourite song can shift your energy in magical ways.
4. Inspiration on the Go
Take a moment to notice the world around you—clouds, trees, smiles. Everyday beauty can remind you of the extraordinary in the ordinary.
If you get tired, learn to rest, not to quit.”

5. Connect with Creativity
Jot down an idea, sketch a little dream, or imagine possibilities. Creativity isn’t about perfection; it’s about presence.
Rest is the secret weapon of every high achiever. It’s not the absence of productivity; it’s the foundation of it.”

6. Claim Your Boundaries
Say no to something that drains you. Say yes to something that sparks you. Honor your needs—this is your sacred space.
7. Reflect and Recharge
End your day with gratitude or a small acknowledgment: What went well today? What can I be proud of? Even small wins are worth celebrating.
Rest is the new hustle.

This isn’t about fixing, achieving, or becoming a “better you.” It’s about remembering who you already are—exponential, made for more.
As the year unfolds with its inevitable ups and downs, may you navigate it with grace, honoring your rest, reclaiming your spark, and staying connected to your beautiful, magical moreness.
✨ Wishing you a year of big shifts, quiet joys, and sacred rest
