Draw In the New - Playlist, Journalling Guidance & Prompts 🌿


Dear Reader

If you joined me for Draw in the New yesterday, thank you!

I hope the gifts of the session are coalescing for you as they are for me. It was good to honour the ups and let go of the downs, to receive the resilience of the lessons learned, and to step, with curiosity, into a year of Renewal and Revelation.

Here is the Spotify play list for the session.

If you couldn’t make it, the journalling guidance and prompts are included here so you can create your own space for reflection and contemplation.

Begin​
We opened our session to Playlist Song 1: Bayethe an invitation to acknowledge yourself - your thoughts, feelings, energy, and how settled or unsettled you are. See it all as a starting point

Set your intention​
Serve your highest good. Draw a line in the sand on 2025. Open to that strange pull of what you would really love to paraphrase Rumi.

Reflect on 2025​
(Optional) Listen to Playlist Songs 2: Daniel’s Joik as you reflect on 2025. Spend some time capturing the essence of your year through drawing or writing, using the journalling prompts to guide your reflection.

  • What were your highlights?
  • What did you learn?
  • How did you change or transform?
  • What no longer serves you?

Sign off 2025​
Be the artist. Sign and date your notes, completing this chapter, and prepare to direct your energy into the year ahead.

Draw in 2026​
Listen to Playlist Songs 3–5: Farewell To The Sea, Calvary Theme, A Dream For The Wild Introduction (approx. 9 minutes). Draw what wants to come through you.

Viewing your work

  • Look at it straight on - what do you see?
  • Turn 90° to the right - what do you feel?
  • Turn 90° again - what is emerging for 2026?
  • Turn 90° again - what message comes from your spirit?
  • Turn back to the start - what is your WORD for the year ahead?

This is a creative soil-turning exercise. There is no “doing” to be done - simply absorb, assimilate and allow the unfolding.

If you’d like to share, post your reflections on this Draw In The New Facebook Post.

Blessings for 2026

As 2026 begins, my wish for you is may your explorations reveal themselves, and may your spirit find expression - not just in what you create, but in how you live.

Though your destination is not yet clear
You can trust the promise of this opening;
Unfurl yourself into the grace of beginning
That is at one with your life’s desire.
​
Awaken your spirit to adventure
Hold nothing back
Learn to find ease in risk
Soon you will home in a new rhythm
For your soul senses the world that awaits you
