My word for the year

Happy New Year!

Wishing everyone a wonderful 2022. I hope this year brings good health and happiness. 2020 and 2021 were years that taught me alot of lessons, I might do a separate post on that sometime but first I’d like to share my word for the year.

BRAVE

I’ve been choosing a word for the year for a while now. Previous ones were:

2017: Content

2018: Release

2019: Adventure

2020: Mindful

2021: Simple

Some have been more successful than others!

For me brave means setting boundaries. Prioritizing what is important. Making goals but being open to flexibility as life can be unpredictable. I think choosing happiness is brave in a time where it can be difficult to simply be in the moment and practice mindfulness.

Brave means saying no to what doesn’t bring joy. It means making time to focus on my creativity and put myself out more.

And so last week when I was in a stationery shop and saw this journal I knew I needed it for 2022. It is a daily reminder to make brave a part of each day.

Do you have a favourite word for the year?
