26 Dec Lifebook’s Annual Year-End Reflection Ceremony
There’s something absolutely magical about this time of year: the twinkling lights, cozy fires, joyous cheer being spread by everyone, and perhaps most exciting of all, the anticipation of turning the page of our lives to a brand new chapter.
It’s a season of celebration, love, and self-reflection.
In honor of this magical time, we have a reflection ritual here at Lifebook that takes place each December.
Here’s how you can join us…
Light some candles, brew a cup of hot tea or pour a glass of champagne, get cozy by the fireside (perhaps with a loved one) and settle in for a few hours of deep reflection and open-hearted honesty.
The ritual is done by answering simple questions, which are designed to call forth mighty truth, inspiration and growth from deep within you.
Enjoy this magical process, and make this New Year a beautiful expression of your wildest wishes and deepest dreams.
And as always, share the beauty and love with your conscious community by commenting some of your favorite answers at the bottom of the post.

“Be content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are.
When you realize there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you.”
