A theme serves as an aspirational guide, helping you stay intentional throughout the year ahead.
For me, 2024’s theme—fun, freedom, and lightness—helped me embrace playfulness and curiosity. It felt especially poignant during a winter solstice celebration centered on joy, reflecting on how far I had come over this past year in embracing play, dance, movement, and just how light I feel in my body.
This year, my theme of equanimity will guide me to remain steady and grounded through life’s ups and downs.
What’s Your Theme?
What about you? Do you have a theme for 2025? If you haven’t thought about it yet, I invite you to use the reflect and focus questions to help you.
Reflection/Insight Questions:
- What are your top 3 memories or experiences of the year?
- What is your biggest accomplishment of the year?
- Knowing what you know now, is there anything you’d do differently moving forward?
- If you could sum up your experience of the last year in a word, phrase, or sentence to help you remember it, what would it be?
Focus/Intention Questions:
- This year I want to…
- This year I don’t want to…
- The biggest lesson from 2024 that I want to apply to 2025 is…
- My theme for 2025 is…
If a theme didn’t come to you immediately, these questions might help you uncover it. And if you do land on a theme, I’d love to hear what you choose!
