Update: It’s a Process and Practice, Not a Light Switch

Posted on

Hello Readers,

Welcome to holiday season.  This time of year is always busy as we rush through our to-dos for the end of the year, and related celebrations and/or gatherings. Sweet and sad memories flow. Add to that, it feels like the world has gone crazy the last few weeks, months, years, and it’s stressful, even crazy-making. I was recently (gently, then forcefully) reminded that we’ve got to focus on the basics, and only what I/we can control, to avoid illness and burnout.  

Rushing through tasks does little good, if you’re not rested enough to organize and do them thoughtfully. So, check out my little video message below, and the Black Friday deal for small group (or 1:1) coaching in the new year. 

I was stressed last week. Hello holidays and end of year craziness, amplified by global tensions and issues!  Cue the face-palm. I was forcefully reminded to simplify, communicate beyond my assumptions, and tend to my basics. SNEC = sleep, nutrition, exercise & stress management, connection. And remember it is a process and practice, not a light switch.

As we head into the last six weeks of 2023, take care of yourself. Interrupt the stress, let go of any perceived need for perfection (of yourself, the project, the holidays), and rest if you need. Also, dear one, please focus on progress, and remember the gentle and vigorous moments you lived fully.  You deserve it. And you. are. amazing!🌟

If you missed it, here is a link to the October newsletter including a couple links for emotional wellness, and leadership in fast-changing times.
