Guided Practice for Regulated Reflection

Amanda Armstrong
About this episode

Sign up for the NYE Circle – Sunday, December 29th at 8 PM ET

In today’s episode is a guided practice for Regulated Reflection. I'm intentionally keeping episodes shorter this month as this time of year is busy and I want to offer you a resource that fits into those smaller pockets of time.

This episode has two purposes:

  1. To invite you to join my NYE Circle this Sunday, December 29th, at 8 PM ET—a free, 90-minute virtual event to pause, reflect, and set meaningful intentions for 2025.
  2. To guide you through a shorter, calming practice to help you regulate your nervous system, reflect on the past year, and plant seeds of intention for the year ahead.

Take a moment to pause and care for yourself in the midst of the holiday season. If you enjoy this practice, I’d love to have you join us for the full NYE Circle experience. You’ll find all the details and the sign-up link in the show notes.
