Each housewife, when thinking about the menu, New Year 2017 will be planning what to cook, making a shopping list and deciding in a panic when to get it all done. I decided to put together for you several options for the New Year's menu with a shopping list and a clear plan of when and what to cook and how to make your life easier. And as a bonus - how to calculate the amount of food per person for the New Year's table.
You may need to change some menus a little to suit your taste. However, I tried to comply with two main points: New Year's Eve no one should overeat and the housewife should not kill herself at the stove. Therefore, we will do most of the work on preparation and in the kitchen during the week, and on December 31 we will pay attention to hairstyle, manicure, roller coaster rides, and a trip to the main Christmas tree of the city. And only an hour before setting the table will you spend in the kitchen. Each menu and shopping list can be downloaded in a separate file for printing, so you don’t forget to take it with you to the store. In addition, the list is divided into 2 parts. The first is products that you can buy in advance, a week before the holiday. After all, there will be no crowds in stores these days. The second part is what you need to buy the day before the holiday. This part includes perishable food. I specifically do not include side dishes on the menu, because... they greatly complicate the night's feast. If you think you can’t do without them, add them yourself. I also do not indicate fruit, vegetable, meat and cheese cuts. I also advise you to avoid fruit and vegetable salads, which will quickly leak and lose their appearance. Whether they are worth adding is your decision. In the meantime, choose what you like and have a happy New Year 2017!
Holiday menu options:
In addition to the list that you can download for purchase, I recommend checking if you have at home those products that tend to run out at the most inopportune moment:
- Salt and sugar
- Tea coffee
- Napkins
- I also highly recommend buying disposable cups; my guests really like to run out after 12 to set off fireworks with a bottle of champagne.
Romantic New Year's Eve menu for two
The main feature of creating such a menu for the New Year is to remember that the dishes are only a small part of your romance. Focus on creating a romantic atmosphere, your appearance And good mood. You can safely go to the salon on December 31, get your hair done, manicure, take a walk and enjoy the anticipation of the upcoming holiday. After all, who knows, maybe today they will propose to you?
Cooking plan:
I tried to plan the time as much as possible so that you wouldn’t worry about missing something and wouldn’t be distracted from the New Year’s mood.
- A week before: We buy everything we need on the first part of the shopping list. We set aside an evening and make sweets. You can safely store them in the refrigerator. Place the candies in a plastic or glass container to prevent them from absorbing the smell of other foods.
- December 30th:
- Prepare cheese cream for canapés and dry the bread. If desired, replace the bread with saltine cracker. Prepare 1/4 of the recipe ingredients cheese cream. 8 crackers are enough.
- Cut turkey fillet (chicken if desired) into two portions and beat. Salt and pepper. Place in a container or wrap in cling film and put it in the refrigerator.
- If you are using frozen shrimp, transfer them from the freezer to the refrigerator so that they defrost properly.
- 31th of December:
- Cooking turkey fillet with sauce. To serve the fillet burn, we do this. While we fry the fillet, turn on the oven and heat to 180 degrees. Transfer the fillets to a ceramic or glass baking dish, cover with foil and place in the oven. After 5 minutes, turn off the oven and the fillet will finish cooking on its own. It can stay there for 20-30 minutes. If you don’t have an oven, cook according to the recipe, but cover the finished fillet on a plate hot cap from the frying pan. If the fillet has cooled before serving, use the microwave. And only then pours the sauce on it.
- Prepare the shrimp sauce, pour in the shrimp. Slice the tomatoes. We are preparing canapés. All together it will take 20 minutes.
- Prepare turkey sauce. 10 minutes.
- Mix the salad right before serving. 2 minutes.
- Let's get some candy.
- Set the table, fix your hair, welcome the New Year!
Cooking plan:
For such a menu, it is better to allocate 2 hours for preparing food on December 30th. In fact, there is very little cooking and cutting the Olivier will take you the most time.
- December 30th.
- Boil potatoes, eggs, breast for Olivier and eggs for fish pate.
- Let's prepare the cake. Let the cake cool, decorate it and top it with yogurt tomorrow.
- Slice Olivier. We don't season Olivier!
- Preparing fish pate.
- Pass the meat through a meat grinder into minced meat. Fry onions and mushrooms for meatloaf. Do not mix, place separately in the refrigerator.
Total time- 2 hours. I recommend involving children in peeling eggs and potatoes. And perhaps my husband for cutting Olivier. You will need about half of the fish pate, so you can safely use the second half for breakfast the next day (spread on sandwiches).
- 31th of December.
- Let's start by preparing the meatloaf. Let's form meat loaf, but we won’t put it in the oven, but set it aside. I recommend sending it to bake an hour before the start of the feast, so that it is hot. 20 minutes.
- Take out the cake and decorate with yogurt. I buy ready-made sugar figurines in the form of snowflakes or decorate as in the recipe. 15 minutes.
- Drain the liquid from the olives and mozzarella and make the appetizer on skewers. I recommend entrusting this part to children, then you will spend 5 minutes.
- Place fish paste on crackers. Let's decorate. 10 minutes.
- Prepare mayonnaise and season Olivier salad. 10 minutes.
As you can see, it will only take you an hour to prepare on December 31st. If you want, you can form the meatloaf in the morning and put it in the refrigerator. This will further reduce the preparation time before the holiday.
Shopping list, printable recipes.
If you have a little more time, you can bake truffle cake. He's truly amazing. Cakes for it can be prepared 3-5 days before the holiday. If you have 1-2 more guests, choose one of the New Year's salads.
Menu for a company of 8 people
If you are going to celebrate with a large group, you want to surprise your guests and not inflate your budget. So I made up a relatively budget menu. The main thing with this option is not to cook a lot of dishes, but simply increase the quantity of each. You can also ask one of the guests to help with cooking. Or ask to bring some of the salads or cake with you. The main emphasis in this menu is not only on its budget, but also on the fact that on the 31st you will only need to put the finishing touches on it. And you'll still only spend an hour cooking. I quite boldly suggest that you include a salad with barley instead of the usual Olivier. And for those who do not recognize salads with mayonnaise - potato salad. It can also serve as a kind of side dish. The number of ingredients for the salad does not need to be increased; there will be enough for each guest. but make boiled pork from a piece of meat at the rate of about 150 grams per person. For a sweet end to the evening, I suggest buying tangerines and sweets for the cake. The recipe makes a cake for about 8 people.
Cooking plan:
- In 3-4 days. We bake cake layers for the Pinscher cake. Please note that for such a large company you need to take a double portion of the recipe ingredients. We also make cake layers for the mushroom snack cake.
- December 30th.
- Boil vegetables for appetizers with anchovy and salads.
- We cut the salads, but do not put onions in them or season them.
- We clean the anchovies (anchovies) and put them in a glass container with a lid. Lightly spray the anchovy with oil to prevent it from drying out.
- We marinate the boiled pork.
- Make the cream for the cake and prepare the Pinscher cake.
- Assembling a snack cake with mushrooms.
On this day you will spend about 4 hours cooking. Therefore, I will once again recommend that you invite helpers or entrust the preparation of some of the dishes to guests.
- 31th of December. We'll cook in less than an hour!
- 2-3 hours before the feast, put the boiled pork in the oven. She will have time to prepare and reach and cool a little in the oven. 10 minutes of pure time. Don't forget to set a timer on your oven or phone to turn off the oven.
- We prepare an appetizer with anchovies/anchovy and cut bread to go with it. 20 minutes
- Cut the onion into the salads and season for 15 minutes.
- Cut the boiled pork and snack cake before serving.

What else can you cook? I think enough. You may want to prepare more appetizers or other salads. Make changes to the menu to suit your taste.
Menu for fasting and vegetarians
I combined these two menu options into one. Those who observe Lent may not celebrate the New Year at all. But still, many celebrate it symbolically. Vegetable cabbage rolls can be prepared a couple of weeks before the holiday.
Cooking plan:
- A week before. Cooking vegetable cabbage rolls. We stand for 3-4 days at room temperature and put it in the refrigerator. The cabbage rolls generally take about an hour or two to prepare, depending on your ability to roll cabbage rolls.
- In 3-4 days. Cooking Lenten cookies with marmalade. Ready-made cookies let cool and put in an airtight box. Total cooking time is about 1.5 hours.
- 31th of December.
- Let's start by preparing the salad. If you use attachments for a meat grinder, food processor or blender to grate vegetables, everything will take about 15 minutes. If there are no attachments, to speed up the process, ask your children or husband to help grate the vegetables.
- Let's prepare risotto. About 40 minutes. Don't forget that this is a dish that needs to be stirred constantly.
If desired, replace the cookies with a meatless cinnamon almond roll. If you can eat fish on this day or want to replace some of the recipes, take a look at the recipes for Lent. During the Nativity Fast of 2014-2015, on December 31, you can eat fish, but on January 1, only hot dishes with vegetable oil. Many people believe that in addition to fish, you can eat all kinds of seafood, so perhaps you can include salads with them in the New Year's menu for fasting people. And recipes for salads with shrimp will come in handy; almost any can be seasoned with vegetable oil.

What will I cook for the New Year's table?
Everything is simple with my New Year's menu. I will be celebrating the New Year with my family - my husband, daughter, parents and our godfather. I really hope that this year he won’t come on his own. I will use the menu above for the New Year for a family of 4 as the basis for the menu. I’ll just calculate the amount of meatloaf so that there will be left for breakfast. For each person, I will calculate 200 grams of pork (raw, before processing) for New Year's Eve. + 200grams*3 for brunch or sooner than lunch January 1st for me, my husband and daughter. Plus I'll add another salad because... There will be 5-6 adults + a 12 year old daughter. What's left of the salad will also be used for brunch the next day.
If unexpected guests drop by, I will have fruit, sweets, something for the meat and cheese slices, pickled plums, cucumbers, tomatoes - in general, something that can very quickly be put on the table as light snack. Because From experience, after 12 at night, guests come from the table and don’t really eat anything. But I don’t want to prepare a lot.
If you make changes to the New Year's menu or need your own version of the menu for the New Year, I have prepared a video on how to correctly create a list of dishes and plan a budget and action plan:
Table for calculating the amount of food for the New Year's menu
This approximate quantity food that one person will eat at the New Year's table. If you don’t want to calculate separately for each type of dish, focus on an average of 500 grams of food per man and 350-400 grams per woman. If there is alcohol, then we increase the number of cold snacks (I have already increased). Remember that it is night, heavy dishes will create a feeling of heaviness. And instead of New Year's fun, you risk sitting in a corner on an armchair, dreaming about mezim. Count dessert and fruit separately.
Cold appetizers – 100-200 gr. (cheeses, vegetable and cold cuts, fish, mushrooms)
Salads – 200 gr.
Hot dishes – 200-250 gr.
Fruit plate – 200 gr. or cake - 150-200 gr.

And even if the dishes do not complement each other, everyone will find on the table what they really wanted.
New Year is a special holiday for our country. The time when friends meet. Noisy and cheerful, he gathers at his table large families and closest friends. Champagne and tangerines, Christmas tree and sparklers, Olivier and herring under a fur coat - we carefully preserve long-standing traditions, and every year we look forward to this pleasant bustle. Most of the worries about organizing and holding the holiday, of course, fall on women's shoulders. This includes cleaning the house, preparing a menu for the New Year, buying groceries and gifts. Therefore, it often happens that, having completely run around and tired, by the evening there is simply no energy for the holiday itself. Let's talk about how to cover good table for a large company, we will discuss sample menu for the New Year, which will cost a minimum of time and effort.
So, you invited guests to your house, let’s say it will be a company of ten people. The first thing to do is create a menu. At the same time, be sure to write everything down in a notebook, because then it will be much easier to make a grocery list and not forget anything.
Preparing the main course
A meat dish for the New Year is simply a must and is an integral part of festive table. Let's look at three options: beef, pork and poultry, sometimes we allow rabbit, but you can't find it in markets very often. Of course, they can be served in different ways: separately, as part of dumplings, manti, cabbage rolls and other things. But, perhaps, many will agree that a beautifully baked and decorated pork ham, beef tenderloin, goose or turkey will decorate holiday menu New Year's is much better than the same cabbage rolls. The main thing to remember is the integrity of the product. If it's a ham, marinate it the way you like and cook it whole. If it is beef, then roll the meat into a beautiful roll, carefully tie it with twine (not synthetic!), you can first stuff it with a mixture of various herbs (dill, rosemary, thyme, parsley, coriander, etc.), and finally pour it over aromatic sauce, serve with vegetables and herbs.
Goose or chicken?
Main meat dish for the New Year it can also be made from poultry. Choose from chicken, goose or turkey. Each option is good in its own way. Chicken is definitely budget-friendly, but at the same time quite simple. Since there are a lot of guests, and her carcasses weigh on average 1.5-2 kg, two or three pieces are needed.
A goose will cost more, but it also weighs significantly more (4-5 kg). At the same time, it is both a plus and a minus that it is quite fatty meat. When baked in the oven, it will lose significant weight, and you also need to think about the stomachs of yours and your guests, the meat is a little heavy. A similar situation with the duck. Therefore, if you want to move away from the banality, the American version with turkey would be ideal. The bird is quite large, the carcass is large (up to 7-10 kg), and there is a lot of meat on it. Its undoubted advantage is its low calorie content, environmental friendliness and lightness. Two medium-sized turkeys (3-4 kg) or one large one will be enough. In addition, a bird roasted whole in the oven, you will agree, looks very festive.
Doubly delicious with sauce
Many people underestimate the importance of sauce as part of the holiday table. And it’s completely in vain, because if you choose it correctly, it will only emphasize and add zest to your main dish. Therefore, be sure to include it in your New Year's menu. Recipes can be very different. So, for example, choose light ones for turkey and goose. sweet and sour sauces based on fruits and berries (lingonberries, cranberries, plums, cherries, black currants and even raspberries), they are ideal for tender meat turkey and dilute well rich taste goose or chicken will add some zest.
All of the above is suitable for both beef and pork, but in addition, you can prepare, for example, various variations of hollandaise sauce with herbs, red and white on meat broth and wine, sour cream, mushroom. Just before setting the table, pour them into special beautiful sauceboats and place them evenly on the table.
Choosing a side dish
The New Year's menu must include a side dish. There can be three options: potatoes, other vegetables or rice (since pasta is too common). If you choose the first option, then there are two methods of preparation. When serving it with pork or beef, boil and then lightly fry small round potatoes. Before serving, you can drizzle with oil and sprinkle with herbs or make a puree. For goose, turkey or chicken, bake potatoes along with them. It will be saturated with juices and rendered fat, which will give it an indescribable taste.
The vegetable side dish can be fresh vegetables, pureed or baked in the oven or grilled. The last method will take longer. You can use any vegetables for a side dish, but still keep in mind that not everyone likes the same broccoli or cauliflower. But puree from them will decorate children's menu for the New Year.
The rice side dish is also quite versatile and loved by everyone, the main thing is to choose long-grain varieties. It is important to boil it correctly so that it does not turn out to be porridge. The main meat dish can easily be combined with such a side dish by adding oriental spices and herbs.
The stock is too much for your pocket!
It is quite possible that guests will find themselves with good appetite or someone else will come unexpectedly, so you should always have a backup plan of what to put on the table. Let's decide what to cook for the New Year as a “spare” main dish. Our traditional and native dumplings are simply irreplaceable here; in 10 minutes they will already be on the table, hot and fragrant. The second option will take a little longer to prepare, on average 30-40 minutes. These can be cabbage rolls and manti prepared in advance; there is no need to defrost them, just take them out and cook them. And remember, the supply, as they say, does not stretch the pocket, the New Year's week is long.
Salads for the New Year
For a company of ten people, 4 types of salads will be enough, each type in two standard-sized salad bowls. Every year every housewife has a headache about what to choose. The old ones seem to have become boring, but without them the table seems empty and not at all New Year’s. I want something new, but suddenly not everyone will like it. Therefore, it is best to prepare two traditional salad, and the other two are new. Be sure to make one with meat (but not with what is involved in the main dish), another with fish, the third vegetable, and the fourth at your discretion, let it be completely new and experimental or, conversely, your favorite. Thus, there is a chance to please all guests.
Fish salads
As practice shows, salads for the New Year can be anything, but herring under a fur coat is beyond competition. Keep the content the same, change the form. For example, in the shape of a fish, which is easy to do in silicone form for baking, if available, in the form of a roll, portioned columns made using culinary ring, where each layer will stand out beautifully, in the form of a wreath, the middle of which can be decorated with a candle and fir branches. Don't limit your imagination, and then old recipe will play in a new way. Second popular salad with fish is "Mimosa". You can successfully “play with the ingredients” in it by replacing canned fish lightly salted, for example, pink salmon, and chicken eggs for quail, or use different types of cheese.
In addition, very interesting options are with cod liver, tuna in combination with fresh vegetables and egg, red fish and caviar, spicy smoked mackerel and green apple. You can also serve them in a large salad bowl, in portions or in tartlets.
Meat and vegetable salads
Go to category meat salads can safely be attributed to "Olivier". Just replace the sausage with delicious boiled beef, and fresh pickles. For the stronger sex, prepare hearty " Men's dreams"(meat, cheese and pickled onions, there should be nothing else in them). Salads with chicken or turkey in combination with walnuts or pineapple, prunes and champignons are very tasty and light.
There should be vegetable salads, but let them be light. If the dressing is not mayonnaise, but olive oil With balsamic vinegar. Nowadays a very popular option is when big dish chopped vegetables (cabbage, cucumbers, tomatoes, Korean carrots, onions, corn, beans), some fruits and olives, and a bowl with dressing in the center. Each guest can optionally “assemble” their own salad from their favorite ingredients. As a variation, try putting not just one dressing, but several types.
Of course, it is possible to create unusual menu for the New Year, which will blow everyone away (not always with the best side), but still, if you are expecting a lot of guests, stick to classic options salads
Something that is always in great demand
Snack sandwiches and canapes are always appropriate and in great demand. Of course, the snacks are very simple, but at the same time tasty. And the main thing is that there is nothing complicated in their preparation, you can use absolutely everything that is at hand, vegetables, fruits, meat and sausages, cheese, olives and in general everything that is left from the main course and salads. To start, buy a large, fresh and crispy baguette, you can even make it from flour coarse, With various additives, cut it into small slices, and then fill it with the contents. Use, for example, soft cottage cheese(not salted) and lightly salted red fish. The same filling option will be ideal for unsweetened profiteroles(but you should bake them the night before). In general, there are a lot of options, feel free to include them in the menu for the New Year. Economical and tasty filling of the table is guaranteed.
There should be cuts on the table: cheese, sausage, fish. Spice them up with some canapés. Do fruit slices not worth it. Firstly, they will become weathered, and secondly, whole fruits in vases are much more beautiful. In vases with a high stem, you can put only citrus fruits: grapefruits, tangerines, oranges, limes and lemons for beauty. It looks very original and bright. Choose small size apples, tangerines, bananas, oranges, this will be more convenient for both you and your guests.
What's for dessert?
It is a mistake to assume that on New Year's Day there is usually no time for dessert, because in addition to adults there are also children. There is nothing simpler than buying cake, candy and a variety of sweets from the store. But if you want to do everything yourself, then don't leave it until the last day. There are many great recipes, simple and tasty, which will only benefit from time. Want to bake a cake? Great! Bake the classic “Napoleon” on December 30 and a day later it will be even tastier. Or, for example, “Anthill” and a more elegant festive “Croquembouche” (a Christmas delicacy popular in its homeland in France). It can definitely be prepared in advance and decorated caramel threads, candied nuts and flowers. Another popular pastry is Gingerbread Cookie And gingerbread houses, which can be prepared a few days before the holiday and decorated with them, for example, a Christmas tree.
Allocating time
Now let's talk about how to manage your time well. Let's start with what to prepare for the New Year in advance, at least 2-3 days in advance, or even a week in advance:
- “spare” dishes, make them in advance and put everything in the freezer with peace of mind;
- buy all the basic products and only leave the perishable ones for later;
- take care of the drinks by making a list of both alcoholic and non-alcoholic ones in advance, taking into account the preferences of future guests.
- boil and peel eggs and all vegetables for salads
- defrost meat, duck, goose or turkey or buy everything fresh;
- You can prepare salads that require soaking.
On the last day of the year, the first thing you need to do is get enough sleep, believe me, you will have time to do everything, it will be much worse if the holiday will pass with a feeling of fatigue. But then get down to business. Marinate the meat for the main course. Wash all the fruits you put on the table. Place candies and other sweets in vases. And around lunchtime, start eating salads. Leave those that may lose their presentation before the evening for later. Turkey cooks on average for 3-3.5 hours, therefore, it should be put in the oven approximately 4 hours before the expected time of the feast. Thus, before the guests arrive, there will be at least a couple of free hours for your beloved.
Entrust setting the table, preparing fruit and other little things to family members; it’s better to do this in the middle of the day. But all necessary utensils, cutlery, it’s still worth preparing in advance so that you don’t have to rush to look for something at the last moment. And don't forget about holiday decor at home, it works wonders!
Even the most original menu for the New Year can be implemented on time and still remain in a good mood and full of energy. The main thing is to know what you want. Then it’s just a matter of little things - a clear plan and a competent menu will help you with this.
So the eccentric Rooster crowed, bringing good luck to some, disappointment to others. The table was, as always, plentiful and satisfying, then I often remembered the interesting finds of the party chef, but it’s time to think about how to come up with a New Year’s menu for 2018, because our most faithful and kind friend Dog, and also Earthy and Yellow - this is what we will start from. Feeding a Friend with a Capital “F” is what you need to do on this New Year’s Eve, feed him so deliciously that he always has sugar bones in stock for you, so that the whole year becomes one wonderful holiday, let’s together develop a menu for 2018 for the Year of the Dog.
Let them be on the table unusual snacks. The dog eats one-time handouts with pleasure, do not load the table with vases filled with salads, cook original pieces, which can be put into the mouth in one go.
You can buy tartlets in any store, the price is affordable, the taste is neutral, you can put any salad, sour, sweet, meat and fish, in such mini dishes. You can serve berries and a sweet snack in tartlets, but let’s start with the classic salty one.

Baked duck - a delicacy for the New Year's table
Serve the game - baked duck. The poultry is served with red wine, but to cook this duck you will need sweet white wine.

Duck meat still smells a little muddy, even if the duck is domesticated, so spices should help reduce the specific smell.
Tie the duck with kitchen twine, pull the wings to the barrels, and pull the legs together. Stuff the apples into the duck, place the duck on a baking sheet, and arrange the potatoes nicely around it. Now decide what you will use to cook the duck. If you have a duck roast, you won't need foil, but you should wrap the duck in foil on the baking sheet, otherwise it will turn out dry.
Cover the whole carcass with herbs, pour wine into the duckling so that it stews in this sauce. Cooking the duck takes more than an hour at 200 degrees. But this is still a fully prepared dish, turn the duck over and put it in the oven for another half an hour. Before putting the duck in the cupboard for the second time, you can already remove the potatoes - they are completely ready. Another little secret- before putting the duck in the cupboard a second time, remove the foil and let the crust also fry.

I got to the marathon and at work they started paying me the salary that was delayed before. We are planning a trip to the sea, during the marathon I updated my wardrobe, I became happier, they say that only those who are wealthy or lazy cannot buy happiness, my happiness depends on finances and I will try to continue making efforts. I thank all participants for your reports, it was very interesting to read them. And special thanks to the presenters, thank you for the changes in life that you and your site help achieve!!!

First, I would like to thank you for this useful marathon! I completed absolutely all of his tasks. Truth didn’t make friends with “The Diary of a Millionaire” and still haven’t gotten around to interviewing her. All because of natural laziness...I’m working hard on this disease! Every day I perform visualization with a money tree (magnet bill) and money snow. Previously I made a money house with a golden roof. And of course a GLASS OF WATER! (this is a masterpiece!) And now about the result! Let me say this, it didn’t take long for him to wait. It took only 2 weeks from the start to the primary result. Firstly, I received a large amount of money and continue to receive it from various sources. At the same time, I do practically nothing for this. So... a couple of emails In addition, I receive small but very pleasant gifts from fate, in the form of the fulfillment of small long-standing desires that I had already forgotten about :)) Plus, unexpected pleasant little things from friends and acquaintances and acquaintances. Every minute of life brings a certain feeling of delight from everything that happens around. I'm surprised and happy how Small child, every unusual situation. And the most important thing is that I absolutely don’t care what happens next. Because I know it will only get better!

Hello) Thank you for this easy, positive and wonderful marathon! It was unusual and unusual for me, because all the tasks are in audio format, and not in the usual text. For me, this marathon was probably the brightest, sparkling, lightest and filled with love.
I came here to work on self-love and increase the level of feminine energy. The marathon has the most wonderful exercises for this. Right at the initial stage, you receive a powerful breath of strength, regaining all the wasted energy on past relationships and failures. Then you free yourself from a whole heap of negativity and attitudes not only in relation to people, men and relationships, but also in relation to yourself and your inner self. Working with energy centers helps to completely clear everything negative and throw it off yourself. After that, things started to change for me. My husband gave me an expensive gift :)
And with exercises to fill you with the energy of love, feminine energy, you gain wings! You start to glow. People I meet on the street even started smiling at me, despite the fact that it’s now minus 26 and I’m walking up to my eyeballs, packed in a sports jacket xD
After completing this marathon, I realized one thing. We bury ourselves in ourselves, in our fears and blocks, in some complex and difficult thoughts... But! As soon as that same person appears on the horizon, it all simply disappears in one fell swoop. Everything is resolved instantly. And when you work for 2 months, cleanse it all, and then fill yourself with love and do the “meeting your soul mate” exercise, you already begin to broadcast positive vibrations into the universe, and they gradually return to your life in the form of real events.
Concentrate immediately on what you have, on everything best qualities men near you. Stop seeing only negativity in yourself and in people. Throw it out! If there is no person even on the horizon, do the “meeting your soul mate” exercise, and in just a few days changes will begin to happen! The most important thing is your focus, girls, girls, I read the reports and was amazed at how much we can bury ourselves in our difficult thoughts! You don't notice it in yourself. And this is precisely why marathons with reports are good. Throw away this shovel))) And start building the stairs to the top. A wonderful and bright relationship awaits you there. When we see positive qualities in people, we direct attention to them, we give energy to all this good and no longer feed the negative, it weakens and goes away.
And separately about reports and feedback. In my opinion, this is the most important thing in marathons. You see not only yourself. And not just one-on-one with the marathon host. In such group work you see a world, a world of people like you with approximately the same problems or different variations of their situation, and you understand your path more clearly! Svetlana, thank you for the wonderful marathon, the feeling of fullness, joy and lightness! I immediately felt how my relationships and in general everything around me began to sparkle with love and happiness! Thank you!
