And just like that, it’s #DetoxDecember!
And just like that, it’s December! Are you as bewildered as I am? It’s that time when you write 12 or December and wonder where the year went. And you may be having to prepare for 01/2024 and reality slaps you. A new year! What does that even mean?
A new year is a logical thing. We chart periods using hours, days, months, years, and more. It’s necessary to maintain this concept of time as humanity. We are bound by these concepts, whether we want to acknowledge them or not. What does that mean for us?
We are allowed to reset! Many of us are used to proclaiming change. We may even get started on the right footing. Unfortunately, many of us have shown others that we talk, but don't act. Most people are the same, all talk and no action. We are no different. I speak from a place of experience here. I still have nonbelievers in my life - in my innermost circle.
What makes this different this time? How can you take advantage of the clean slate that comes at midnight on January 1, 2024? Like for real, for real.
Do something Different in December.
For starters, you are connecting with me! I am equipped to push you into your better. Your best self and your better life are ahead of you. If you decide to walk towards it. It’s all up to you! Will you listen to the Lord's messenger? This messenger will guide you in the right direction. Are you following your true path or society's expectations? Do you even know? That’s how I can help.
This month, I will be teaching about #DetoxDecember. We are going to focus on ridding ourselves of the toxicity that clouds our judgment and our faith. Fear, doubt, and external influences will never go away. I’m happy to say that they only have precedence when we focus on them. What you focus on will expand and consume. Let’s focus on health, healing, faith, and forward movement.
We can’t change the past. It’s done. In the present, we have the decision to make to either seek therapy to help get past it or decide to leave it behind. It can’t be re-lived or changed. I, too, have experienced the cycle of starting and stopping. I understand the struggle of trying and failing, repeatedly, year after year. Together, let's commit to doing the necessary pre-work. This will help us stay focused on the actual process of transformation in the year 2024.
We can’t make the future what we want it to be. Dreams are necessary, but they are just that, dreams. A vision is fuel for passion and purpose, but it’s only a vision without the feet to get it moving. That movement starts today and each day thereafter. We can’t jump to the future. We can’t guarantee it will turn out the way we envisioned it. We can only use it as a motivation and inspiration.
Today is what matters. And today is the beginning of December. This thirty-day period allows time to reflect, reset, and restore. It also encourages us to revisit our relationship with God. During this time, we can ponder who we are and how we should live. Additionally, it prompts us to walk by faith towards our desired future.
No matter how old you are it’s not too soon or too late to readjust your attitude to one that works for you and not against you.
This month we are going to embrace the power of community by starting the 40-day soul fast by Dr. Cindy Trimm in our Facebook Group. This will help us do the soul healing and inner woman's work to clear the emotional and mental clutter. We also have a part to play in this detox process by pulling away from the toxicity. Social media. Certain people or environments. Screentime. Burnout. Poor self-care.
We have the chance to assess what needs to go and what needs to stay. OR what needs a break. By replacing bad habits and prioritizing, we can eliminate paralyzing factors. It’s not as hard as it sounds.
You just need to say yes to the dress! No really, you just need to say yes to God’s love for you and yes to the innate desire to love yourself. Determine that in 2024 you will no longer pour from an empty cup.
So this is the pep talk before the journey begins. I hope you will join me in making 2024 the year you’ve been wishing for many years.
Here’s the game plan if you’re willing to take this journey with me:
#DetoxDecember
Mindfulness - focusing on the present
Self-discovery and spiritual revitalization
Remove the clutter. No more toxicity.
