The New Year is an exciting time. It brings a sense of closure and completion, and offers the hopefulness and optimism that accompanies new beginnings.
If you’re looking to make changes this year, it’s helpful to first bring awareness to areas that are currently out of balance and then devise a plan to course-correct. Below is an effective and simple tool called the Circle of Life that can assist on your 2016 journey. It was created by the health coaching school I attended, New York City’s Institute for Integrative Nutrition.
One of IIN’s key philosophies is that while it’s important to eat whole and healing foods, nutrition is only a part of holistic health. IIN refer to the other parts as “primary foods,” which include joy, spirituality, creativity, finances, career, education, physical activity, home cooking, home environment, relationships and social life.
If any of these “primary foods” don’t resonate with you or you want to make them more specific, simply relabel them on your circle before filling it out.
This exercise is intended to first give you a snapshot of which “primary foods” you are skimping on, and second provoke thoughtful ideas for bringing more abundance to these areas.
After taking 3-5 minutes to complete your 2016 Circle of Life, here are some follow-up questions you can ask yourself:
– Are there any surprises for you?
– How do you feel about life as you look at your Circle of Life?
– Which of these elements would you most like to improve?
– How could you make space for these changes?
– What help from others might you need?
– What would make it a better circle?
– What would a balanced circle look like to you?
Assess your circle as the year progresses to stay on course. Enjoy the process. Live this year to the fullest – we truly never know when it will be our last. Why not intentionally make it the best one yet? Happy New Year!

The Bozeman Symphony will join forces with the
Bozeman Symphonic Choir and Montana State Youth Chorale to present its final
classical concert of the 2023/24 season the second weekend of May, the spectacular
choral masterpiece “O, Fortuna!” Orff’s Carmina Burana, Carl Orff’s
infamous ode to love, drink, and living life to the fullest.
Music Director Norman Huynh conducts the program, which features the
Symphony alongside renowned vocal soloists Ashley Fabian, soprano; Andrew
Owens, tenor; and Christòpheren Nomura, baritone.
The Symphonic Choir under the direction of Maren Marchesini will be
featured in this massive choral work which includes the world-famous opening
movement “O Fortuna,” with text drawn from the medieval poem Carmina Burana.
Instantly recognizable thanks to its use in countless movies and
commercials, a live Carmina is one of classical
music’s most spellbinding and immersive experiences. From the explosive opening to the
intimate and haunting “In Trutina,” every note will resonate with intensity and
emotion.
Performances are Friday, May 17, at 7:30 p.m.; Saturday, May 18,
at 7:30 p.m.; and Sunday, May 19, at 2:30 p.m., at the Willson
Auditorium, 404 West Main Street in downtown Bozeman. These concerts
would not be possible without the support of
sponsors Cal and Tricia DeSouza, Michael & Sharon
Beehler, Mike & Cyndi Huempfner, and David & Kippy Sands.
Individual tickets are available at https://www.bozemansymphony.org/carminaburana.html
or by calling the office at 406-585-9774. Adult tickets start at $29
and discounted student tickets (K-12 and college) are available.
