Looking for the perfect word of the month to embody each month?
Here in this post, I have made a big list of inspiring words of the month that you can choose from for whichever aspect of your life you want to focus on whether it is self-care, mindfulness, simple living, self growth and so on.
I made this list mainly for myself because I found myself thinking a lot about what word I should keep for each month when I write down my monthly goals and intentions.
This month is April and this month I wanted to do things easily, in a relaxed manner and go with the flow, so I chose the word of this month for myself as ‘Easy’.
The intention is to do all things with ease instead of feeling like an obligation and a source of stress.
So this made me make this list of inspiring words of the month and you will find the word of the month to:
- Inspire slow living
- Inspire simple living
- Inspire self-care
- Inspire personal growth
- Inspire Creativity
- Inspire mindful living
- Inspire to take action
- Inspire to be successful
Decide what you want to practice and embody every month and then choose your word for the month.

Every month I believe in setting intentions for the month and breaking down your major goals into monthly goals.
There are rituals to be done at the start of every month. Here is what I do at the beginning of each month.
These days I am also setting a word of the month that I want to practice, embody and focus on.
And it has helped me focus more and it serves as a wonderful reminder to align my actions to my word of the month.
Anyway, here are the benefits of keeping a word of the month
1. Focus: What we focus on expands and when we choose a word for the month, it helps us focus better on what we want to expand.
2. Inspiration: The chosen word can serve as a wonderful source of inspiration and remind you to take action, make positive changes, or pursue what you want in alignment with the word.
3. Guidance: A word of the month can also serve as a guide for us making things easy for us by reminding our values, goals, or intentions that we want to embody or prioritize during that month.
4. Mindfulness: By consciously selecting and reflecting on a word each month, you become more mindful of your actions and how you want to be and start doing things more in alignment with your word.
5. Accountability: Having a word of the month can keep you accountable to your intentions and goals. It can help you provide a framework and also make decision-making easy throughout the month.
6. Connection: You can also share your word of the month with others. This can foster a sense of connection as you engage in discussions, reflections, or activities related to the chosen word together.
7. Consistency: Incorporating a word of the month into your routine can help you be more consistent in what you want to strive and achieve in life and can serve as a monthly practice of self-reflection and growth.
I truly believe that keeping a word of the month can be a simple yet powerful tool to be more intentional about our daily lives and live each day more positively and in alignment.
So finally, here is the list of words of the month that you can choose from depending on what you want to focus on.
