an you believe we are almost at the end of 2012? Did this year fly by or what? And now as we enter the holiday season, I hope you all can take some time to review, reflect and celebrate all that you accomplished in the past year. Try to take some time for yourself amidst the holiday parties and celebrations, gift shopping and cooking! Re- flect on the past year and ask yourself: what were your successes, your challenges, your surprises and most of all what do you have to be thankful for? You made it through another year and now is the time to celebrate and reward yourself for all of your hard work. Too often we focus on everything that went wrong during the year. The money we didn’t make, the weight we didn’t lose, the relationship we


didn’t find. But in order to truly master the art of manifestation and send a message out to the Universe to bring us what we want, we must first be thankful for what we have. Try and focus on what you did achieve and receive this year and most importantly, reward your- self for it! Rewards are positive reinforcements that make you feel good about your achievements, the price you paid for that achieve- ment, and they reinforce the behavior and attitudes that led to those achievements. Don’t let your achievements during the past year and the feelings of victory evaporate without some kind of reward and recognition. This is an essential part of the combination for success. Rewards can be extravagant or they can be simple. Treat yourself


to a day at the spa or block a half day out of your schedule to get outdoors and enjoy our beautiful nature areas. Take a weekend getaway with your spouse or a friend or plan a staycation and enjoy all that Connecticut has to offer (great hiking, adventure parks, wine trails and farm-to-table restaurants). Go on a shopping spree and revamp your wardrobe or just clean out your closets, donate what you’re not wearing and create the space for a new wardrobe. Or my favorite – go on a silent retreat! I would also recommend some time to reflect on the year of


2012. Did any of your goals and dreams change throughout the year? Were you unable to achieve some and if so, do you want to keep them on the list? Did you create some new goals and dreams this year? Spend some time thinking about these questions and checking in with your feelings and emotions surrounding the an- swers. We want to wish everyone a healthy and happy holiday season and we look forward to helping you achieve all of your goals and dreams in 2013!
