WEEK 1 (DECEMBER 3RD – DECEMBER 9TH) This first week of December we are reminded of the importance of asking others for help. We are right in the thick of the holiday season and times can absolutely be a bit stressful. However, the message this week is to remem- ber that you do not have to go about this alone. Spirit is there to give you help and there are people all around you who would love to assist you. Often times our egos love to convince us that we are all alone, that no one cares, or that asking for help is a sign of weakness. In fact, the opposite is true! Humans are naturally social creatures and we all are predispositioned to help others. Instead of thinking about being seen as less than or weak for asking, reframe that belief and see what a true opportunity for joy you are giving the other person.

This week, put pride and stubbornness to the side and ask for the help that you need. WEEK 2 ( DECEMBER 10TH - DECEMBER 16TH) The second week of December ushers in a time of reflection and introspection. This week we are asked to examine the “why” be- hind what we desire.

What about that rela- tionship? Are you in a relation- ship that isn’t fulfilling because you are afraid of being alone? This week we are challenged to really dig deep and tell ourselves the truth in terms of our “why.” The deep truths that you uncover this week will allow you to begin 2018 anew with total truth and clarity. I know it can be scary to face the shadows but these truths will not go away if ignored. It’s time to put on those big girl pants and get really brutally honest with yourself. I promise everything will be OK and when you finally tell yourself the truth, it will feel as though a weight has been lifted. WEEK 3 (DECEMBER 17TH - DECEMBER 23RD) Do you ever wonder why bad things happen to good people? This week is all about seeing how we cannot control everything. Yes, we can practice manifesting our desires, but ultimately, there are things in life that we cannot 70
