40+ Self-Reflection Questions & Activities + FREE Printables!

Ready to kick off the new year with a clean slate? Shari's Berries has put together a list of self-reflection questions and printable activities to help you prepare for the new year through introspection!

The end of the year is often spent with friends and family, celebrating the holiday season and bundling up to enjoy the cold weather. As the beginning of a new year approaches, it's also the perfect time to look back on everything you've done over the last 12 months.

Introspection, the examination of one's own mental and emotional processes, is a healthy way to analyze why you act and think the way you do. To begin this process, work through these self reflection questions and printable activities.
