(Video) Pause. How Do You Want to BE this Holiday Season?

Mindfulness, Newsletter
mindfulness

When we were teenagers, my brother Kert used to dance around the house singing, “It’s beginning to look a lot like stress-mas, everywhere you turn … ” Growing up, we used humor in our household to keep things real!

As we balance the light and dark of the season, it’s SO easy to get overwhelmed, irritable and to fall in to a slump. I find it helpful as we dive deeper in to December to pause. Reflect. And think about entering this holiday time (and interactions) with intention. Here’s the Live Inside Out question I’m sitting with this week in my weekly 2-minute video check-in. Join me?

Want more support for finding your center during this holiday season? Consider joining me this Sunday, 12/19 from 1-4:30 ET for SOVEREIGNTY: A Women’s Self-Renewal Retreat (details below; two spots left!) and read 7 Tips for Staying Sane this Holiday. If you missed this from last week, also check out 5 Ways to Find Rest & Renewal this Holiday. 

I’d love to hear how you want to BE in December.  (Hint: when in doubt, do less.) Let me know how it goes.
