A Birthday Routine to Make Your Year Amazing

Mindful Friday

On my birthday, I follow the same routine as other days. I wake up and meditate. Then, I do yoga, and I journal. However, the journaling I do on my birthday is a bit different. Instead of my usual ramblings, I do a check-in. I try to answer the following questions.

1. What went right this year?
2. What could I have done better?
3. What lessons have I learned?
4. Which of the goals I set for myself for this past year have I accomplished?
5. Which are still works in progress?
6. What am I grateful for?
7. What do I hope to learn this year?
8. What are my goals for this coming trip around the sun?
9. What is the biggest adventure I can have?
10. After I'm done journaling, I light a candle, make my wishes, and set my intentions for the coming year, and I blow it out to send the wishes out into the world.

Do you have any birthday routines or rituals? What are they? I'd love to know.
