We are more than halfway through the 2021 year — how are you doing with your intentions or what goals you set out for this year? So far, the year has included many hardships and highlights, but we have also experienced growth from these shared experiences. 

At the same time, these things affected our lives, plans, and schedules and put us through a range of indescribable emotions. They have put new challenges and roadblocks on our unique journeys; some of us may have learned to navigate these while others may feel overcome entirely. Maybe you feel a constant mix of both. 

It is okay if you are not aligning your intentions, goals, and practices for this year. We are human, but with four months left of 2021 (and with the start of school for many), it is a beautiful time to realign. 

Here are few questions to reflect on:   

• What do you want to accomplish in the next four months, or how do you want to feel or act daily? 

• What actions are you currently practicing that are not aligning with this? 

• What actions can you add that will help you find success? 

• What support do you need to make this happen? 

Consider accepting help or finding a support system to strengthen your resilience and ability to manage the stress caused by the unpredictable, including the unique conditions of 2021. If you feel overwhelmed or unable to meet your goals independently, consider seeking professional help. Depending on your needs, therapists and personal coaches are trained to help you.
