Crossing the Threshold: A Ritual of Reflection, Authorship & Choosing Your Word for the Year Ahead

Send us a text

There is a sacred moment every year that most people rush past —
the space after the holidays and before the new year begins.

That space is called the threshold.

In this Boxing Day episode of The Aligned Human Project Podcast, Dawn Elgin invites you into a guided ritual of reflection; not to set resolutions, fix yourself, or pressure the future — but to integrate what you’ve lived, honor who you’ve become, and consciously choose how you want to move forward.

This episode is a pause.
A breath.
A return to authorship.

You’ll experience:
✨ Why reflection is a spiritual and neurological practice
✨ A gentle month-by-month year review (without judgment)
✨ How integration prevents repetition
✨ Why resolutions fail — and words guide
✨ A somatic practice for choosing your word for the year
✨ Dawn’s personal story of choosing Alignment — and how it shaped everything
✨ A closing embodiment ritual to cross the threshold consciously

This is not about becoming someone new.
It’s about stepping forward as someone truer.

Mantra:

“I honor what has been. I integrate what I’ve learned. I choose consciously what comes next.”

Reflection Question:

What quality wants to lead my life in the year ahead?
