How to Create Your Own Mid-Year Reset Ritual

I don’t know about you, but I blinked and suddenly it's July. Life moves fast, especially when you're juggling everything and sometimes, we don’t even realize how much we've shifted until we pause. The good news is, this is the perfect time to pause. Not because you are behind, or doing something wrong, but because you deserve to take a moment to reflect on your year and your goals to ensure that the dreams you're chasing are still in alignment with your vision of the future. 

Why This Moment Matters

Just like nature shifts with the seasons, so do we. Summer is a time of bold bright energy and a time of peak growth, which is exactly why this is the perfect time to pause, reflect, and realign. Over the last six months we have started to work on all those beautiful goals we set during the winter months. This is just an invitation to look back over the last six months and determine if things are still going the way you anticipated and if the goals you set six months ago still resonate with the version of you that exists today because you’ve grown, shifted, and learned a lot since then. There is no wrong way to do this and there are no wrong answers. Whatever you come up with is right and even if it’s not what you expected, that's okay. Here are some of my favorite ways to pause, reflect and realign with myself. 

Reflection Prompts

Journaling is one of my favorite things to do when I want to take inventory on how things are going in my life. It allows me to be completely honest with myself and it’s a judgement free zone just for me.

Try out these prompts or find/create your own: 

• What have I learned so far this year?

• What’s feeling out of alignment?

• What do I want more of in the second half?

You can spend 5 minutes, you can spend an hour, the time doesn’t matter. What matters is diving in, being honest, and recognizing where you are now, no matter what that looks like. You are your own best compass and this is about tuning in, not measuring up.

A Simple Ritual

If you are craving a more in depth reflection and connection with your intuition, here is a simple ritual you can do to go deeper. 

• Light a candle or sit outside barefoot

• Journal 1–3 of the prompts above

• Do 5 rounds of deep belly breathing 

• End by writing: “I am choosing to move forward with _______.”

This is a simple but effective way to get in the space of honoring yourself, your intuition, and what you want to get out of this second half of the year. 

Moving Forward

Resetting yourself is a personal journey and there is no one right way to do it. It can be as in depth or as simple as you want. You can journal, ground yourself, meditate, or do whatever speaks to you. It is truly just a moment in time for you to reflect on your values and if your goals are still in alignment with those values. It is never too late to start over.
