New Year: Word of the Year Ritual Workbook
The New Year offers a meaningful opportunity to pause — creating space to gently hear your inner knowing and meet what’s ahead with care. This workbook is designed to support you in discovering your Word of the Year, not as a goal or resolution, but as a steady, supportive guide you can return to throughout the year.
Rather than rushing into intention-setting, this ritual invites you to slow down and listen. Through meditation, gentle movement and restorative shapes, numerology reflection, journaling, and intuitive card practices, you’ll be guided to release what feels complete, align with the energetic tone of the year, and allow your word to emerge naturally — without pressure or force.
This workbook is trauma-conscious, invitational, and deeply embodied, honoring your agency and inner wisdom at every step. It can be used as a stand-alone personal ritual or revisited throughout the year whenever you feel the need to reconnect with your direction.
