As the year comes to a close, many of us carry a lingering sense of unfinished business including thoughts that loop in our minds, conversations left unsaid, and tasks that never quite got done. These loose ends can quietly drain our energy and cloud our focus. Before the calendar turns, there’s a simple but powerful practice to create mental and emotional clarity: intentionally closing the loops in your life.
What does “closing loops” mean?
It’s about noticing the unfinished mental and emotional threads that tug at your attention and gently addressing them so they no longer take up space in your mind. It’s not about perfection or doing everything at once. It’s about clarity, presence, and release.
