Dear there ,
We close our year-end elemental reflections with water, the keeper of emotion, intuition, and release.
Water holds. Water reveals. Water teaches us that healing isn’t linear.
Ask yourself: What feelings did I finally let flow this year?
Here’s what I let move through me:
Anger: I didn’t disguise it or deny it. I let it be a sacred signal, and I transmuted it into clarity and action.
Grief: Grief for what never came, for what had to end, for the versions of me I outgrew. I wrote through it. I cried through it. I let it wash through me without needing to package it.
Disgust: I named it. I let it be honest. I used it as a boundary setter rather than a reason to self-abandon.
Joy after pain: Not the joy that dances for others, but the quiet kind that returns when you make room for it. The joy of resting. Of creating without demand.
Compassion for myself: Especially when I missed emails. When I chose real life over algorithms. When I knew silence was my medicine.
Practice: Run warm water over your hands or step into the shower. As it flows, whisper: “Thank you for what I felt. Thank you for what I released.” Let the water witness you.
You don’t have to dry it all up. Just stay present with your tide.
With gentleness and gratitude,
GalandaB
