The New Year is an archetypal time to take a clear look at our lives and choose new direc- tion. This may be the year to take time off to write that book, or start growing your own vegetables. Perhaps this is the year to lose those 10 pounds, get licensed in a profession you’ll love, or learn Chinese. On a deeper level, we might be ready to confront old fears or open locked doors.
Whatever form our resolutions take we’ll probably fi nd that the energy of the New Year’s archetype fi lls us, making that new path seem attrac- tive and easy. Once that energy fades, though, we fi nd – once again – that it isn’t easy to change old habits of thinking, feeling and behaving. Changing those old habits requires dedication and endless effort; more, it requires the staunch support and intelligent help of those around us. In fact, it may be that the most important thing we can do to help our reso- lutions become reality is to create a strong support system for ourselves. In recognition of the importance of the support system, we invited Kira Freed to submit a feature article about coaching. We hope you enjoy this excellent article as much as we did.
Natural Awakenings hopes to be part of the Tucson community’s support network throughout 2011 by providing information and encouragement on making good life choices that help us, help others, and help the Earth. We have a number of special writers and articles already lined up that we know you’ll enjoy. As always, we welcome your feedback and ideas.
Many blessings to all of you now and throughout the New Year!
