January 2026
Our Annual Theme is Awakening.
Our Seed of Awakening for this month is: “Awareness”
Awakening refers to the process of recognizing and embodying one’s true divine nature—moving from ego-identified separation and illusion to a direct experience of oneness
with the Divine (or Universal Spirit, Source, God, etc.). It involves heightened awareness, inner
peace, compassion, and a shift toward living authentically in the present moment. Often
described as a gradual unfolding (sometimes with intense catalysts), it emphasizes letting go of
old patterns, embracing inner truth, and expressing love and service in daily life.

Our Seed of Awakening for this month is: “Agreements”
This month’s Seed of Awakening is Agreements. These conscious commitments shape our reality through the creative power of our thoughts, words, and actions. Rooted in New Thought and inspired by The Four Agreements, this seed invites us to release limitation, assumption, and self judgment, and to embody integrity, clarity, and joyful effort. As we align with truth and Divine Mind, we consciously co create a life of freedom, authenticity, and spiritual growth.

Our Seed of Awakening for this month is: “Peace”
Our weekly themes are intentionally simple—Peace, Peace, Peace,
Peace, and Peace, emphasizing that true awakening arises from repeated embodiment rather than complexity. Each week builds on the last, weaving personal inner calm with collective harmony, aligning with Holmes’ vision of peace as “a state of inner calm so complete that
nothing can disturb it.”

Our theme for this month is: “Reciprocity”
This month’s Seed of Awakening, Reciprocity, invites us to reflect on the sacred balance of giving and receiving in our lives. Inspired by Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer, we explore how gratitude, connection, and mindful exchange deepen our relationship with each other and the natural world. Through this lens, we are gently reminded that what we offer with love returns in meaningful and often unexpected ways.

Our Seed of Awakening for this month is: “Presence”
This month’s Seed of Awakening, Presence, invites us to discover true security not in control, but in awakening to our Oneness with the Infinite and fully living in the Now. As we release the illusion of separateness and stop resisting life’s natural flow, we remember that we are not victims of uncertainty, we are joyful co-creators, free to live with greater peace, trust, and ease.

Our Seed of Awakening for this month is: “Allowing“
This month, we explore the liberating practice of Allowing: releasing our grip on what we cannot control and opening to the natural flow of Life, Love, and Divine Intelligence. Drawing from Mel Robbins’ The Let Them Theory, we learn that true freedom arises not from forcing outcomes or managing others, but from surrendering expectations and reclaiming our own power. In Science of Mind, allowing aligns with affirming the One Life that is God expressing perfectly through us, trusting that as we let go of resistance, the Law responds with grace, harmony, and abundance.

August 2026
Our Seed of Awakening for this month is: “Soul”
This month we turn our attention to the eternal, radiant reality at the center of our being—the Soul. In Science of Mind, we know the Soul as the individualized expression of Infinite Spirit, the pure, deathless essence of God that lives in and as each of us. It is the part of us that never began and can never end, the quiet knowing that we are more than our bodies, our stories, or our circumstances.

Our Seed of Awakening for this month is: “Compassion”
This month we awaken from the trance of unworthiness and otherness. We listen beneath our surface wants for the soul’s deepest longing. We learn RAIN as a spiritual technology of the heart. And we carry compassion into a divided world; not as niceness that papers over harm, but as the courageous recognition of the Divine in all people.

Our Seed of Awakening for this month is: “Communication”
This month we plant the seed of true belonging by returning to the heart of communication. In a
world that often rewards being “right” over being connected, we choose a different path: curiosity
over certainty, empathy over judgment, and honest expression over silence or blame. Inspired by
Marshall Rosenberg’s Nonviolent Communication (NVC), we’ll practice seeing clearly, speaking
honestly, and listening deeply so that every conversation becomes an opportunity to meet
ourselves and each other with love.
