0:34.7	Welcome back to Self Care Daily, everyone. I hope you're having an amazing day today. We are diving
0:42.0	right in to our intention setting practices for 2026, where we have eight practices straight
0:48.7	here on the show. Last year, if you tuned in, we spent some time processing 2025.
0:55.9	And today, what I want to figure out is what is something that came your way this past year
1:03.0	that you don't want to bring with you into 2026?
1:07.8	What is something that you just know you don't want in the new year?
1:18.1	Sometimes a really great way to start to get closer to what we actually want is identifying
1:24.1	clearly what we know we don't want. And for some of us, that feeling of no can be a
