Hey friends, welcome to the Rhythms for Life Podcast where each week we talk about four rhythms

that help you reduce stress and anxiety and take charge of your emotional health. Rest,

restore, connect, create. These ideas come from Rebecca's best-selling book,

Rhythms of Renewal, trading stress and anxiety for a life of peace and purpose. So grab your

copy, invite your friends and let's live in rhythm.

Welcome back, I'm Rebecca. And I'm Gabe. And it's a new year. Happy new year.

Yes, it's always fun to enter a new year, clean slate. Now, 2022 I got to be honest.

I was so excited about that year because my number since middle school basketball was number

22. So I always had this thing with 22. So I was just amped. And it was a good year.

But we've turned the page. We're moving forward. I know. Sorry about that babe.

No, it's great. No, it's just going to get better. Well, 22 was a big year. We celebrated

25 years of marriage. So that was that was a big deal. I got healthy. That was a big deal.

Just nutrition. And you know, we talk about that. You may have lost 22 pounds. I'm not saying

it's counting. But somewhere around that vicinity, our son, our first born is about to be 22.

Here in about a month. That's weird. We've been married a long time. And but one thing

that you know around here on the rhythms for life podcast is that rhythms are a big deal,

especially as we re-enter a new year, new year, new rhythms. It's never about resolutions

because those are something that are extreme and usually not sustainable. But the rhythms,

you are living those out every day. Rest, restore, connect, create. You are sleeping, hopefully.

You are moving your body at some point. You are connecting in relationships. And then you are living

in your calling. So the goal is, is as we revisit a new year, we should take inventory. And so

we're going to talk about that here for a second because Gabe and I have been doing this for years
