One-Year Life Audit Checklist 📝
A Refreshing Reset for a More Aligned You
By The Everyday Edit
There’s something powerful about pausing once a year to assess where you are and where you want to go. This life audit checklist is designed to help you take inventory of what’s working, what’s not, and how to course-correct for growth, joy, and purpose. Set aside a quiet weekend with your favorite drink, journal in hand, and let’s begin 🌿
1. ✍️ Personal Values Check
Start with your compass—your core values. Are you living in alignment with them? If you feel off-track, reflect on what matters most and how your time reflects those priorities.
📓 Tool to help: The 6-Minute Diary – designed to build clarity and intention daily.
2. 🧠 Mental Health & Mindset
Audit your inner world. Have your thoughts been mostly empowering or draining? Are there patterns or beliefs holding you back? Therapy, meditation, or mindset coaching can help create a shift.

Your Reset Ritual 🕯️
Wrap up your audit with a reset ritual. Light a candle, sip something warm, and journal on what you’re releasing and what you’re welcoming in the next 12 months.

With love,
