Journey: The Year That Changes Everything

A year-long guide to awareness, reflection, and personal growth with deep intention from #1 New York Times bestselling author, Time 100 Creator, meditator, and modern poet Yung Pueblo, one of today’s brightest lights in self-healing and compassion. Yung Pueblo’s Journey is just that—a uniquely accessible and actionable inspirational journey filled with words that heal and wisdom that lasts. Healing is not a destination: it’s a practice. The greatest change comes from within you. To transform your life, you must go on an inward journey to uncover two of the greatest prizes a human being can have: self-awareness and inner peace. Both self-awareness and inner peace emerge from a deep state of balance. This same balance is remarkably expressed in the visible world by the four major elements: fire, air, earth, and water. Fire , the element of ambition, transformation, energy, and understanding boundaries, is the first chapter of your journey. You will need fire to help you work through all the anxiousness, uncertainty, and doubt that come up as you steel yourself for change. Air , the element of motion, freedom, self-awareness, and skillfulness, is the second chapter. Air guides you as you finally move forward and take flight. Earth , the element of stability, self-care, steadiness, and nourishment, is the third chapter. Earth is all about training. Your sweat and tears show that your efforts have taken hold, but now you need to continue the work so change can be lasting. Water , the element of letting go, generosity, adaptability, and relationships, is the final chapter. Water is about finally feeling balance and being in a place to unlock new opportunities, new relationships, and a new understanding of yourself. Look to Journey as a source of inspiration and a guide that will help you cultivate these qualities within your mind and heart.
