Summary
Happy New Year 2016! Today you'll be guided using a powerful chakra technique to help you commit to what's important to you. Big projects that hang over your head can distract you from other areas of your life. When you experience completion on projects you want to get done you often gain clarity in other areas of your life. This is part 5 of a 7-Part Meditations on Goal Setting, Episodes 576-582.
