Most resolutions are made in a rush and gone by February. This is the opposite.

A slow New Year's Day afternoon to honor the year you lived, set down what you are done carrying, and choose one intention that comes from somewhere deeper than willpower. We will plant that intention the way it is meant to be planted, in yoga nidra, where it can take root while you rest.

The afternoon

Four parts, one intention

  1. One

    Reflect

    Guided journaling on the year you lived: what happened, what you learned, and what you are grateful for.

  2. Two

    Release

    Write what you are ready to leave behind, then watch it dissolve in water. A quiet ritual for letting go.

  3. Three

    Choose

    A guided inquiry into what matters most, then one intention, or one word, written on a card to keep.

  4. Four

    Rest

    A long sankalpa yoga nidra that plants your intention deep beneath the busy mind, while you rest.

Why nidra

An intention, not a resolution

In yoga nidra, a sankalpa is a short, heartfelt intention you repeat while the body rests and the mind grows quiet. It is planted beneath the noise, where real change begins.

You will leave with your intention written on a card for your mirror or desk, and a seven day practice to carry it through the first week of the year.

Your guide

Julianne Arce

I have practiced yoga and meditation for about twenty years and taught for thirteen, including seven years leading international teacher trainings.

Yoga nidra and the sankalpa are the heart of what I teach, and New Year's Day is how I begin every year.
