Happy New Year, everyone!
Mark and I are so excited to introduce a new format for our programs, services, and offerings coming this spring! Our website is being redesigned as we launch this new stage of our personal and collective evolution.
I wanted to share an inventory that I created for my private Facebook Community in case you feel inspired to explore your progress on your growth journey.
Here it is:
Before we move forward, it is so important to celebrate how far we have come in our journey. Those of you who have taken the Journey of the Five Hearts/Break Free From Survival Program offered by Mariner Wellness Institute will recognize this post as the fourth dimension of our heart, called the reemerging heart.
The other ones are: the Original Heart, the Broken Heart, the Survival Heart, and the Sacred Heart. Whether you have taken the program or not (a course that helps you to come home to your heart and embody your soul's purpose), the following post focuses on celebrating the reemerging heart.
The inventory below invites us to come closer and go deeper into a celebration of ourselves and the growth we have experienced over the past year.
Take a moment to celebrate yourself! If you want to post any shares on the feed here, please do! We are all in this shift together, embodying our divine humanity in form, one breath, one step, one action, one intention at a time!
Below is the practice!
Much Love and Happy New Year!
From Marcia and Mark
A New Year’s Heart Inventory
Six Portals for Your Re-Emerging Heart
As we cross the threshold into a new year,
This is not an invitation to become better or to try harder.
It is an invitation to listen more deeply.
Before setting goals or intentions,
pause…
place a hand on your heart…
and take a breath.
This is a moment to gently take inventory —
not from the mind,
but from the wisdom of your heart.
Below are Six Portals to the Re-Emerging Heart.
Read them slowly.
Notice what feels alive, tender, or quietly calling for attention.
🌿 Portal One: Listening to Heart Intelligence
Where am I allowing my heart to lead my life?
Where am I still letting old conditioning, fear, or others’ expectations decide for me?
What sacred gifts that I bring to the world have emerged more within me?
New Year Inquiry:
What would it look like to trust my felt sense more this year?
What would it feel like to fall more in love with the beauty of who I am inside and be nourished by my original heart's divine perfection?
✨ Portal Two: Awe & Wonder
Where do I regularly experience the beauty within myself or others and life itself?
What awakens in me an experience of a more profound sense of mystery, or reverence for life?
Where have I rushed past these moments?
New Year Inquiry:
How can I intentionally invite more awe into my daily life?
If I have not experienced this portal, I deepen my self-inquiry to learn something new about myself.
💛 Portal Three: Gratitude
What am I already deeply grateful for — even if it came through challenge?
Where do I forget to pause and acknowledge what is working?
New Year Inquiry:
What might change if gratitude became a daily practice?
If it already IS a daily practice, what does that feel like in my body? I allow myself to linger longer in that place to be nourished by my heart of gratitude. ( Journal your answers to embody the feelings more.)
❤️ Portal Four: Receiving Love Fully
How does love show up for me?
Do I allow myself to receive it — or do I minimize, deflect, or push it away?
New Year Inquiry:
What would it mean to say a fuller “yes” to love this year?
How can I create safety for myself so that my heart can open more to love?
🌊 Portal Five: Compassionate Awareness
Where do I notice judgment — toward myself or others?
Can I sense the unmet need or pain beneath it?
New Year Inquiry:
What would shift if I met myself and others with more curiosity and compassion?
🌱 Portal Six: Honoring the Small Steps
What microsteps have I taken this year that I feel invited to celebrate?
Do I acknowledge my growth — or only focus on how far I still have to go?
Do I celebrate my willingness and courage?
New Year Inquiry:
What is alive in me as I practice honoring and celebrating my growth?
✨ Closing Reflection
As you feel into these portals, notice:
Which one is asking for your attention right now?
That portal doesn’t need to be fixed.
It simply wants to be met.
Let this be your focus for the new year —
not a resolution,
but a relationship with your Re-Emerging Heart.
May this be a year of deepening into the power of your heart
and coming home to yourself in more profound ways!
