<p>The Surprising Advantage of New Year's Day: A Synchronizing Ritual</p><p>Over the course of a year, a lot of change happens. From work and relationships to internal growth and mourning loss, the world is constantly changing.</p><p>How do we deal with change healthily? How do we vulnerably confront the changes of life, its loss, and its possibilities?</p><p>Synchronization is a process of being in tune with change so that we intentionally adapt to the emerging world around us. Having a ritual on New Year's Day gives a collective means to mark the events of our lives and ritually sync with where we have been, where we are, and where we are going. </p><p>We also explore the word "rachaf" which is about having moments of profound intimacy where we are interacting with the full presence of life and its changes in a transformative movement that makes us in tune with what will never be the same again.</p><p><a href="https://ko-fi.com/becominghuman" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://ko-fi.com/becominghuman</a></p>

From Santa Claus and the reindeer at Macy's Thanksgiving Parade to the classic songs, these traditions are not only new, they were created by department stores and other industries. </p><p>This doesn't make it bad, but we should be honest about it.</p><p>There are also other versions that might be better.
