I love what you said about pressence. I need to step away at times, but you are right. We can't accept and give our pressent selvea to anyone, if we don't make a move. It's about being our perfectly imperfect self, giving the best we can at this very moment!

I really needed that reminder about not expecting vigor from yourself when youre running low in the gas tank. I often forget to eat breakfast and then i wonder why i have no energy at work. Health is my word of the year and i think i gotta start by making sure im fueling up with that high vibe healthy shit!

I love watching your videos Kelly-Ann, it’s like having a friend over for a good heart-to-heart. I’ve had such a trying year last year, but I know there will be positive changes this year. I think my words are courage and forgiveness. Forgiving others as well as forgiving myself. As you said it’s really important to recognise that nobody is perfect, but at the same time take accountability for your actions. Much love my fellow poptart ❤️

Love word/s of the year! It’s also fun to pair them with a tarot card of the year, to see how they play together. Mine in previous years have been: create, balance, joy, joy, joy, joy, balance, and this year is try. All the joys are from years of heavy grief. Idk if I’d still be here without that one in particular, so there’s def something to having a word to focus on. Thank you for bringing awareness to WotY, KA! I hope more people try it. ❤

I don’t have any unique words for the year and I’d like to possibly add one like your zesty; words so far chosen are intentional love - self love, balance and discipline.

ooh i like these words and your explanation! i've never done the word of the year thing until 2024 - it occurred to me on the winter solstice and i suddenly had an idea. my word of the year is "gathering." it means both gathering with friends and community, and gathering practices and tools (ie trying new things and keeping what works). it has connotations of grasping opportunities (not necessarily running out and making opportunities, since the last three years have been awful, but it feels more manageable to say i'm keeping an eye out and will take the opportunities when they come), and of foraging, and of gathering up all my existing tools to take stock, to make use of them all. i wanted a word that was soft, and gentle, and encouraging.

Thank you. I’ve been using soul cards to communicate with archetypes, this means I don’t have to go out and seek friends for no reason. I love to collaborate but I have to make some more art first

I didn't know communication anxiety was a thing I.e. pulling away until you have the perfect response. This is exactly what I've been feeling. Going to be keeping this in mind!
@kelly-annmaddox
7 ай бұрын
It manifests differently for different people, but for me it's definitely about wanting to make sure I have the perfect words, a decent amount of time to deal with any response, enough mental energy to keep the line of communication open etc.. It can just get very mixed up and overwhelming in my head, when it doesn't need to be that hard..

I think I will have a deep think and choose some words for the year with intention. That's a great idea. I've been using the Green Witch Oracle to choose a year word. This year I drew the beetroot card Passion and the little quote for this one is: 'An addiction to gardening is not bad when you consider all the other choices in life' -Cara Lee Bell Which kinda suits me because I am indeed a gardening addict. The beetroot is an interesting symbol for me because though I am growing some for my family and I love the taste, I mustn't eat them due to health concerns. Just some of my food for thought. 😅

I think my words are: self-care, community, career....but I guess that's just what I want to focus on. I choose to have these words as my guides rather than measurable goals actually, because I'm more into creating systems than setting goals. Example: eat intuitively and move mindfully every day instead of "lose 20 pounds by x date"...because it's less pressure and more about long term changes!

Blessings on your journey. I found that I was stuck in my city, surrounded by addiction and negativity. I think it’s good that you watch Kelly Ann for that reason, it’s possible to journey into an infinity of energetic occurrences that are freeing and positive, tarot and journaling, shamanic journeying. I recommend a book called dancing in the flames.

There must be something in the air. My words were presence, connection and vigour (mainly trying to make all my decisions based on what will give/take away my energy). Spooky! I do think there's been a universal struggle this year, a lot of people I've spoken to have had similar experiences of not feeling as aligned and present as in the past.

I'm choosing depth/rootedness, with the visual image of different plants having different root systems for their particular structure, to help me remember that I can have depth or rootedness in one area and it might look different than in another area of my life that also has depth!

thank you for bright lights in the tough nights 🌼 one word i'm clear on right now is "earned" oh and "attuned", also enjoy the concept of self-attendance.. last year it was an awareness of how even small "resistances" nudge me that was really valuable for me. ugh yeah it's the communication anxiety for me right now haha i'm re-engaging with the artist's way and my inner sensor is revving up almost amusingly much at the moment as i'm readying myself to tackle her out of my way a little more

Word, it’s amazing how many critics come in when you’re working from source. Louise Erdrich used to tie herself to her chair with a scarf to write her novels and poems. But once one gets into it for a while, creativity has a light that is brighter than social media even. I find that knowing your audience, working for the sake of just one person or yourself, is easier than a whole ton of people. Thanks for your comment

Thank you so much for sharing this with us☺ I've never thought about choosing words for a year before, but the first word to come to mind is compassion. I hope it's okay if I take to heart all 3 that you've come up with-- and of course I'll work on adding my own! My BPD was especially hard last year, and I'm hoping to overcome a lot of challenges and keep up with my friends in 2024. I wish you (and everyone in the comment section as well) the best zesty wishes!!💖🔥🍋

I really enjoyed this discussion! I also chose Presence as my word for this year. I felt that would be especially helpful for me this year amid my depression from both personal issues, and from the general sad state of what is happening in the world. I would also love to see a future episode where you check in with yourself on progress on these words. Maybe in a self-love September episode?

I got a word of the year reading from someone and I feel no connection to that word, which is abundance. I know it could be a good word but I'm just not feeling it. I think I need to pick one of my own. I'm not sure what I want and we're almost at the end of Januarya
