HOLISTIC - End of year wind down

Many of us (myself included) have been operating at full speed all year long, and this holiday season may be the first time you’ve had to really sit down and think. I know, within myself, I need to resist the urge to just overindulge and mentally check out. (Geez, it is tempting though.)

Let's continue to take care of our mind, body, and soul, ensuring that this season brings not just joy and celebration, but also a sense of deep personal fulfillment and connection. 

So, I’m sharing some thoughts and reminders on how we can take care of ourselves, both physically and emotionally, whilst still embracing the festive season. 

Holiday meals and celebrations - let's approach them with mindfulness and balance. Let's make conscious choices to nourish our bodies with wholesome foods, so we can maintain a sense of wellness throughout the holiday season. 

And please remember to stay hydrated! Be creative, incorporate coconut water (natural electrolyte) into non-alcoholic christmas drinks/spritzers. Indulge in our beautiful in season water-rich fruits, watermelon, mangoes, grapes, strawberries - they provide natural hydration and festive colour too!

Exercise - Whilst it's tempting to become a festive Netflixing couch potato, remember even, just a little exercise can make a positive difference. Take a stroll, reconnect with neighbours/community, walk the family fur kids, enjoy a beautiful beach or forest walk…be present in the moment.

Taking care of our mental well-being - Let's utilise the power of our sacred "no" and only say yes to things that will have a positive impact on our overall well-being. Taking a few moments each day to meditate, even if it's just three deep breaths in the morning and evening, can provide us with a sense of calm and clarity. 

Practicing gratitude can help us maintain a positive mindset and focus on the blessings in our lives. And I personally know all too well that sometimes we have to dig a little deeper to pull the blessings out of what may seem like an unpleasant situation. 

Amidst the hustle and bustle, it's essential to reconnect with the true essence and meaning of the holidays. Take a moment to breathe and reflect on what the holidays truly mean to you.
