2014What’s Your Story Going to Be?

Who Will You Let Write it? And

What Can You Gain?

You have a tremendous amount of wisdom right in front of you ...And this guide was developed to help you find it, see it and take it with you as you step into 2014. You spent a lot of your time, money, energy, and heart in 2013. Some of it paid off big,and some, while it might not have materialized the way you had hoped, can still have big pay-offs. IF you create space at the end of 2013 to PAUSE and REFLECT... because it is insidethe pause that HUGE piles of wisdom sit just waiting to make you wiser for 2014.

Get ready to make one of your Feminine Super Powers even stronger... the super power of PAUSE! Inside this guide youʼll find two tools that give you the power to end your year:

✴ feeling GREAT about yourself...

✴ feeling solid about what you have accomplished and havenʼt -- yes, “failures” can be trans-formed into empowering energy that fuels you...

✴ and feeling clear about where you want to go in 2014 (because youʼve cleared out 2013,leaving the garbage and taking only the wisdom with you.)

The two tools included in this guide - the Wheel of Reflection and the Wake Up Call 3-Step Process - are tools that we have used with our private coaching clients, in our workshops and in our own lives for years. Taking this year-end PAUSE has made a significant impact on the levels of happiness and success weʼve seen people create in the following year.

We know that by activating your Feminine Super Power of PAUSE and by changing the channel inside your head on your failures from the Inner Mean Girl channel to your Inner Wis-dom channel, and by CHOOSING to create your life as a LEGEND you will step into your2014 full of self-love... ready to empower yourself to have your best year yet. So honored andexcited to be on this journey with you! With big heart,Christine, Amy & Shiloh

FailuresWhether you like the word or not, we all have failures -- things that didn’t work out as planned, ways in which we didn’t show up as our best and brightest. Dis-appointments, goals you didn’t achieve. Owning these as failures gives you power vs. the failure having the power. Plus, there is a reason these come be-fore learnings - you can turn them into learnings, but only after you’ve owned them.

2013

LearningsThe knowledge and wisdom you have gained over this past 12 months. New insights, perspectives, beliefs. Qualities and understandings you have with you for the rest of your life - you are a wiser woman!

N

SuccessesYou knocked it out of the ballpark. These are the things that you did well, your accomplishments, your wins, both internal and external. This is a time to gush! Don’t hold back. Really celebrate all that you have gained, done and become over the year.

The Feminine Super Power of PAUSE

THE WHEEL OF REFLECTION

SurprisesWhat happened that was unex-pected? Great happenings, and the not so great. The unplanned, the special gifts, the things that the universe delivered in ways that you never expected...

copyright 2006 Resonance and Christine Arylo

About The Wheel of ReflectionPassed down for thousands of years through Native American tribes, this wheel is one of many an-cient and sacred “medicine wheels” used for wisdom and guidance in oneʼs life. These wheels, which always include at least four of the directions, allow us to look at our lives as observers, taking time to pause and see from the outside in. One always moves through the wheel one direction at a time, usually counterclockwise. This particular medicine wheel helps us reflect on a specific time period, in this case the year that has been. By examining the surprises, successes, failures and learnings of the past year, youʼll be better equipped to move into the new year fresh, taking only what you con-sciously decide is worth keeping. The wheel gives the gift of telling your story, taking in the valuable lessons and letting go of the rest. It was gifted and taught to me, Christine, from my spiritual mentors Pele Rouge and Firehawk Hulin, and to them from their teachers Wind Eagle and RainbowHawk, and now I share it with you.

Using the WheelYouʼll need some way to capture your thoughts as you move through the wheel... a journal, sketch-pad, computer, anything that takes your thoughts and makes them physical. Thinking through the wheel is not enough. Once you have your supplies, follow these 5 steps in order.

1. Start in the East with Surprises. Let yourself think back through the entire year and freely writeeverything that comes - no editing! Challenge yourself to just let the experiences and words flowand when it seems like youʼve captured everything challenge yourself again to find more. Thereare always a few gems at the end.

2. After Surprises, continue on to the South with Successes, and then Failures repeating theprocess of thinking back through the year and transforming those thoughts into the physical.

3. Make a Mind Shift. Before moving onto the golden Learnings, where your Inner Wisdom lies,take a short pause to shift your perspective on your failures using the Wake Up Call 3-Step Proc-ess in this guide.

4. Gather the Wisdom... what did you learn? Standing in the North you have a vast perspectiveon all that you have experienced and accomplished in 2012. From this place, what does your In-ner Wisdom know today that she may not have known before. What were your learnings in 2012?

5. Go back and read through everything you captured. Write more if more shows up. Notice thethemes. Let yourself see the story of the year thatʼs been and then be willing to close the story-book to start a new book for the new year.

SurprisesWhat happened that was unexpected? Great happen-ings, and the not so great. The unplanned, the special gifts, the things that the universe delivered in ways that you never expected.

SuccessesYou knocked it out of the ballpark. These are the things that you did well, your accomplishments, your wins both internal and external. This is a time to gush. Don’t hold back. Really celebrate all that you have gained, done and become over the year.

FailuresWhether you like the word or not, we all have failures. Things that didn’t work out as planned, ways in which we didn’t show up as our best and brightest. Disappointments. Goals you didn’t achieve. These can be losses, incompletions, or things that never did quite get started. Owning these as failures gives you power vs. the failure having the power. Plus, there is a reason these come before learnings, you can turn them into learnings, but only after you’ve owned them. The Achievement Junkie and Doing Ad-dict Inner Mean Girls and Dudes especially hate failures, but your Inner Wisdom knows there is gold here. Embracing what didn’t work in 2013 can be extremely empowering - GO FOR IT! We’ll be on the other side, ready to transform them.

Feeling & Transforming Your FailuresWe find that most people approach their failures in these common ways... ignore them (“I donʼt really want to feel them again, the first time was enough”)... reframe them as something else (“I donʼt really believe in fail-ures, I see them as learnings” - achievement junkies especially wonʼt even use the word failure)... gloss over them (“Ahh, yeah it happened, but no biggie, next year will be better”)... or beat themselves up with them (“I really fell short this year.”).

Weʼve tried all these ourselves, watched our clients do the same, and now, because we are much wiser, real-ize that any of the 4 choices above shortchange the power available to us by seeing and transforming our fail-ures. There is real power in being able to feel the emotion attached to the failure, and then transform it into forward moving energy to fuel our new year. Without addressing and moving the emotion, the feelings get stuck inside of us, and they become blocks to our Inner Wisdom and food for our Inner Mean Girl.

This three-step super powered process - called the Wake Up Call Three Step Process created by Amy - gives you the tools you need to transform your failures from inner critic snacks to Inner Wisdom fuel.

Step One: What is Your Inner Mean Girl or Mean Dude saying about this failure or shortcoming? Let it rant out loud, no holding back... “You...” “You should have...”“You could have...” “If...” Once itʼs all out, and we mean all out, close your eyes, take a breath, then ask your-self...

Step Two: What does your Inner Wisdom know? From this place speak out loud the truth that your Inner Wisdom knows. Let yourself FEEL the energy shift, as if you are melting away all that judge-ment and criticism (because you are!) Keep speaking until you feel a release or you get to the nugget of truth - a statement or sentence, a love mantra that you can say to yourself to lock in the truth and release any blah ju ju you donʼt need to carry with you into 2014.

Step Three: Lock it in. Find a physical gesture that you can use to lock in this truth - a physical gesture that feels natural, powerful, self loving - could be putting your hand on your heart, tapping your chest, moving your hips, whatever. Say the truth that your Inner Wisdom gave you while doing the physical gesture to lock this in - your new reality - the right reality as you go into 2014. Use this gesture whenever your Inner Mean Girl or InnerMean Dude flares up!

Repeat for each failure.

LearningsThe knowledge and wisdom you have gained over this past 12 months. New insights, perspectives, beliefs. Qualities and under-standings you have with you for the rest of your life - your Inner Wis-dom is rockin’ with life here! Tune in and listen.

Your Completion Ritual

Lastly, as a final step to close out the past year, we have a ritual for you to perform. Rituals mark a shift, and often times a closing and an opening - perfect for this time of year.

This ritual is a way for you to formally leave 2013 exactly where it belongs: in 2013, and step con-sciously into 2014 as the powerful being that you are... wiser, led by your Inner Wisdom, andcontinu-ing to reveal your Great Woman or Great Man to yourself and the world.

We recommend that, once you have answered the three questions below, that you fill out the Procla-mation Super Power Statement and read it aloud to yourself or a witness. This act of reading it out loud will officially close out the prior year and ready you for a FABULOUS 2014!

Step 1: Ask and answer these 3 questions:

1. What parts of 2013 do I want to leave in 2014? These are feelings, situations, relationships,lessons that will only weigh you down in 2014. Make a list of these things on a piece of paper.Conduct a releasing ceremony by saying “I release... and leave it behind in 2013” for each one.Burn the paper or disintegrate it with water.

2. What do you want to take with you from 2013? These are the skills, qualities, learnings thatyou want to pack in your Inner Wisdom backpack and toolbelt and take with you into 2014 to helpyou build and maintain momentum. You worked hard to get these things, be wise enough to con-sciously decide to take them with you.

3. Who am I stepping into 2014 as? As you walk across the bridge of 2013 to 2014, who is theperson that is stepping forward? Describe yourself. Who are you today and who are you becom-ing? Write down a description, right now. Keep that somewhere special that you can reflect back on next year.

EXTRA CREDIT FOR FUN: See yourself, this powerful person as you are today, as you step into the new year and play this game: Notice the type of shoes you are walking into 2014 wearing.Are you sporting tennies or are you strutting in high heels or are you barefoot? See the shoes that youʼd imagine your Great Woman or Great Man wearing.

Step 2: Prepare for the Proclamationwrite here what you will say aloud for your completion ritual

I release (failures, losses and incompletions):

I celebrate (successes & wins):

Me and My Inner Wisdom now know and remember (Learnings):

Step 3: Proclaim with Powersay what you wrote out loud - in front of a mirror, to the ocean, to a friend, just say it aloud from the voice of your Inner Wisdom

Congratulations! We declare 2013 complete!Enjoy the spaciousness and emptiness to allow the new to come in.

From Chief Soul Fire

Dear One,

Why do you always strive to prevent future hardship?You don’t know at all what will happen. You try to make wise choices but if they are based on future fears they are colored by doubt.Doubt makes for a diminished capacity and makes potential harder to see.

If you go where your vitality is, then at least you will live like you are living.

Neither safety or risk will save you any trouble,however, small-minded safety has assuredly less potential pleasure in store.Safety is illusive as you well know. Adventures holds more joy.

Things are not going to go well for you just because you are a good person.Or a bad person. There is so much less control that you like to imaginethat you have. Or that your destiny has in store for you.What actually happens in the world will happen with our without you.But it is better if it happens with your participation instead of your fear.

We all wish that good things happened to good people and the bad ones would be woken up by all the good ones. That would be nice, wouldn’t it, if good things happened to good people.It does, more often, of course, but not all the time.Then when something bad happens you wonder what you did wrong.This is not correct thinking, but we won’t go into that just now.That is a conversation for another day.

What you can do dear one, is to stop trying to save yourselfby choosing the less scary option and staying inside the proverbial lines.You can also surround yourself with others who lift you upinstead of hold you back with their fears, this happens a lot.Scarcity is cruel lens that ruins countless visions that could be seen together.

Here’s what you can do.You can extend yourself in unreasonable acts of love and move from ridiculous faith in the unseen world.

You will find more support from the invisible world of the Divinethan you ever imagined possible. Miracles happen all the time.That kind of support shows up when you leap with no net.You cannot see it before you leap, it is only visible during flight.

This kind of trust isn’t based on your past experiences or future predictions.This isn’t the kind that you earn, this kind shows up more like grace.When it goes good, give thanks. When it is not so good, give thanks,but by all means stay out of blame. And shame. Those ones are no good.

The future is uncertain terrain that no one can save you from.You have seen the way the world is going, and I know it hurts.Hurts to see the harm unfolding and accepted before your eyes.Hurts to feel the planet shifting faster than we can save it from harm.

And still. The great wheel turns and turns.What part of the great turning will you be a part of?The answer to that question is the one to seek with your whole self.What is yours to do, not yesterday that you didn’t, or tomorrow that you should.But today.

What is calling from within you to be expressed?Go there. Remember, it won’t feel safe to go there most of the time.Extend yourself into the distances you cannot see.Move in Love as you spread tired wings with new hope.Yes I know it may be unreasonable to hope.Hope anyway. The world needs your hope, but most of all, you needto feel what hope feels like in your body.Your heart needs you to love in this wildly outrageous wayso that it can keep opening up instead of shutting down.

Then you will know which way to turn. Turn towards that which brings you aliveness.

And so the turn into 2014 begins...
