- “For last year’s words belong to last year’s language, and next year’s words await another voice.” – T.S. Eliot

Nothing groundbreaking or that you haven't heard before... Just the stuff we forget when life gets loud and demanding.. It's always nice to have a little refresher 😃 1️⃣ Take care of your body.. Something that has been a game changer for me is.. Sleep 8+ hours. Get 10,000+ steps in daily... Eat real food. Drink water + maldon salt.. It's hard to feel good in life when your body is exhausted. Oh and CELERY JUICE! An amazing detox to take on an empty stomach in the morning. 2️⃣ Be honest with yourself.. Even when it’s uncomfortable...Especially when it’s uncomfortable. One of the best gifts we can give ourselves is honesty about who we're being, where we're at, and where it is we want to go (and be around) 3️⃣ Let go of what you can’t control.. Most of our stress comes from fighting reality instead of meeting it.. Accept the moment as it is not how you want it to be. Byron Katie has a quote that says "when I argue with reality I lose... but only 100% of the time"... Dance with the moments. Find the lesson in ALL of it! 4️⃣ Do one thing each day you’re proud of.. This doesn’t have to be huge. In fact, it usually isn’t. Keep a promise to yourself. Finish the thing you said you would...Speak up when you normally stay quiet. Self-trust is built in these small moments… and self-trust is a direct path to happiness. Create one WIN per day that you commit to and show up to complete.. This builds trust, trust builds confidence, and confidence builds the trajectory of your life. 5️⃣ Spend time with people who feel safe to your nervous system.. The ones you don’t have to perform for..The ones who don’t rush you, fix you, or drain you...Nervous systems regulate in healthy connection...Choose relationships that feel like simple exhalation, not effort. 6️⃣ Get outside every day.. Nature is truly medicine. The earth literally heals you.. direct physical contact with the Earth's surface allows the body to absorb free-flowing, negatively charged electrons. These electrons help neutralize positively charged free radicals.. often produced by inflammation, stress, or pollution=,, which can improve sleep, reduce pain, and lower cortisol. Sunlight. Fresh air. Bare feet on the ground if you can. Nature has a way of reminding us what matters and what doesn’t. Even five minutes can reset your entire state + nervous system.

Something I do every single day that has genuinely changed my life is this. I keep 10 or more reminders in my phone that repeat daily. Not random quotes. The ones that feel potent for this season of my life. Every day, I read them. But I don’t just skim the words. I pause. I feel them. And I look for proof. One of my reminders says “My name is Justin Peters, and only good things happen to me.” When I read it, I don’t rush past it. I’ll repeat it two or three times. And as I do, I start remembering all the good things that have already happened. The conversations. The breakthroughs. The moments that could’ve gone wrong… but didn’t. What that does is it turns on something in the brain called the reticular activating system. It’s the filter that decides what you notice and what you miss. When you train it to look for what’s working, what’s supportive, what’s unfolding in your favor… you start seeing more of it. Not because you’re lying to yourself. But because it was always there and you weren’t tuned to it. And when these reminders aren’t just read, but felt… when you can actually find evidence for them in your own life… You don’t just change your mindset. You start creating a completely different world to live in.

I'm curious to know what you guys lean on to come back to your truth, and away from the illusions of life. Breathwork, walks, journaling, music... whatever brings you home to yourself… it might help someone else too.

As the new year approaches, there’s a quiet invitation in the air. Not to overhaul your life overnight. Not to force resolutions from a place of lack. But to pause... To listen... To ask better questions. What do I actually want to feel this year? Where do I want more ease? More honesty? More presence? Goals don’t need to be loud or dramatic. The most powerful ones are often subtle shifts.A deeper commitment to your body... Cleaner boundaries with your time and energy... Showing up with a little more courage in the places you’ve been playing small. Before you write a single goal, take a moment to acknowledge how far you’ve already come too. Give yourself the gift of celebration for making it through EVERYTHING you’ve made it through up to this point. The lessons... The growth... The strength it took to keep going, even when you wanted to stop. From that place, let your goals come from alignment, not pressure... From devotion, not comparison.. From who you are becoming, not who you think you should be. This is your journey, your like, your dharma.. no one else’s. This year isn’t about becoming someone else. It’s about coming home to yourself and letting your life reflect that truth. We’re setting intentions together... Slowly...Intentionally. In community. What’s one area of your life you’re ready to tend to with more care this year? Share if it feels right. Love you guys… sending SO much love and blessings your way for 2026. You have inside you EVERYTHING you need… all you have to do is remember. 🙏🏼🤍 Justin
