Colour is all around you.

What’s a colour walk? Choose a colour, pay attention to your surroundings, and take a photo when you see your colour.

The photos don’t need to be fancy. It can include nature, road or store signs, even random garbage. Just give your eyes the opportunity to seek colour.

Meet Ophelia. She was made while having a paint night with friends. Am I particularly artistic? No, that honour and skill went to my child. Is it still fun to do something that you don’t normally do? Yes. And bonus, I got to do it around people I like. 😊

Affirmation - I am building good habits.

Have you noticed that it is hard to build good habits and to break bad habits? Well, our brain doesn’t know if a habit is good or bad. It just builds the pathway.

So that’s how I like to look at it. A habit is a path that I need to walk. When I start, the path doesn’t exist, but as I follow it day by day, the path starts to wear down. If I abandon the path, it will become overgrown and I’ll struggle to find it.

Looking at it from the perspective of nature, habits seem more like a process. Something that needs to be tended to grow.

What habits are you tending to this season?

Say the affirmation to yourself 10+ times or meditate on the idea.

Apparently, it is National Hobby Month so a great time to show one of the finished products from my Winter Solstice Creations. I have enjoyed making jewellery since my teens and continue to make pieces. Is it still a hobby if you sell the items you make? 🤷‍♀️

This aquamarine and stainless steel bracelet is for me. So I’ll include it under the ‘hobby’ title.

I do have the option for you to get your own bracelet stack though! This is a great way to start wearing your seasonal colours if you don’t currently have many in your closet. This is an add-on feature to any colour or image service. Comment BRACELET or DM for more information.

Happy New Year! It’s Michelle of Sprouting Balance with a reminder …

You do not need to start any resolutions because it is January 1st. You do not need to start a new diet or begin a new workout routine.

We are always working towards a new version of ourselves. Every day is a new version of you. So what will this day bring you? And tomorrow ... and the day after that? Take each day as an opportunity to be an authentic version of you.

New Year, Same You

📷 The above text goes across six slides on a blue background. At the top of the slide it says “New Year, New Year” scratched out.

Reminder! Clean out your toiletries. As we enter into 2025, toss those expired products and protect your skin. And while you are at it, remove the items you know that you will never use. Regift, donate, or trash if needed.

Today is the shortest day of the year, also known as the Winter Solstice. It symbolizes renewal, rebirth, and fresh starts. I spent the day resting and working with some aquamarine stones. This gem was calling me today; it is associated with mental clarity and truth. Which seems appropriate for the day.

It is the third week of December. School concerts are in full swing. Work parties and events are happening on the daily. Gift shopping has taken over some parts of the schedule. And the routine is out the window.

I’m often asked by participants what movement they should do when classes/sessions are not running. They notice that their mobility decreases with time and they struggle when they return to a movement routine.

When schedules and routines are “off”, I suggest movement snacks. Start with five minutes and then add on time if the mood strikes.

To learn more about these five suggestions, read the blog post on my website. Link is in the comments.
