A Small Step: Mid-Year Reset
Today is the summer solstice—the year's longest day, the turning point.
The sun pauses before beginning its descent. You can pause too.
A solstice intention-setting practice:
Step 1: Release what's not working
Write down 1-3 things from the first half that you want to release:
- A habit that's not serving you
- A goal that no longer fits
- A belief that's holding you back
Symbolically release them. Cross them out. Tear up the paper. Let them go.
Step 2: Set new intentions
Write 1-3 intentions for July-December:
- Keep them simple and clear
- Focus on what you CAN control (actions, not outcomes)
- Make them meaningful to YOU, not to anyone else
Step 3: Create a reminder
Write your intentions somewhere visible. Phone background. Mirror note. Calendar reminder.
Your 3 second-half intentions:
Happy solstice. May your second half be brighter than your first.
