What are words of wisdom?


Hello Reader,

I am really excited to share about my upcoming Wisdom Words for 2025 workshop. I have found over the years that the energy I have starting the year massively shifts and settles into very different energy around this time near the end of January.

I think it's because I get bombarded with messages to have the right planner, the right mindset, the right consistent daily routine starting January 1. Well that just ain't realistic for me. Especially when there are many circumstances that impact my life happening year-round but somehow even more at the end of the year into the new year: the travel, the feasting, the nesting comes to an end and as all those things are slowly closing out it's like I need another few days of integration and recuperation before I can even think of taking on a consistent daily routine. Is this similar for you?

Here's where the wisdom words come into the conversation. Even with all the moving parts at the start of the year, I still like to bring vision into the year and write out a few plans for work that I'd like to see come to life. That's a fun visioning day that I've been lucky enough to do with my friend and fellow TY teacher Melissa Shah the past 3 years. Once that happens I start to think about my day to day and how I might accomplish the big ideas I'm coming up with through my daily practices and work routine. It takes a few weeks for all that to take shape and right about now I want to add to what I've started by doing the Wisdom Words exercise.

The truth is: I love the affirmation calendars and planners with quotes and all that, and I love cultivating my own inner wisdom way more.

You're invited to cultivate your inner wisdom with me in a virtual and in-person workshop this Sunday, January 26th from 9-11a PT.

Here's the format:

We meet and I'll offer a guided meditation focused on visualizing alignment and flow in your life in a few focused areas. You'll be invited to journal after the meditation to put your thoughts onto the page.

From there, with more direction and guidance, we'll pull from that wisdom and ultimately arrived at your Wisdom Words for 2025.

It's a fun and fruitful exercise that you can jazz up with color and design if you like.

The goal is to leave with a stack of Wisdom Words that you can pull from during a variety of exercises: intention setting, journaling, affirmative reminders, and so much more!

Members can reserve for FREE. Learn about sliding scale membership here.

BONUS: If you're a local to the LA area, join this workshop in person! After you sign up, let me know if you would like to join me in Santa Monica and I'll share the location details.

Warmly,

Tejal

Hello Reader, Thanks for your care and concern for all of us impacted by the California wildfires. We are in the process of collecting supplies however (see my IG update), you may have noticed, many local businesses turned into collection centers and are now overstocked with donated items. Many sites do not have a direct connection to give to those in need. We are shifting focus to providing aid to those directly impacted via loss of home and legacy. Can you give $25 or $50 to help a family...

Hello Reader, How are you? I'm in a safe area at the moment, the part of Santa Monica that does not have a Red Flag warning. the ash is mixed with the breeze and the air quality is keeping us on alert. Many I know have evacuated and/or lost their homes. Let's work together to provide as much aid and info to those impacted.
