Float through the Holidays

Do the holidays ever stress you out? Or do you suffer from seasonal affective symptoms like fatigue, irritability, the blues, or trouble focusing? Whether your schedule is busting at the seams, you don't want to leave the house, or the usual holiday stressors are looming on the horizon - the best thing you can do for yourself to float through the holidays with peace and bliss this fall is to make self-care a priority.

I've said it before, and I'm sure I'll say it again - schedule an appointment with yourself to relax and rejuvenate every day, or at the very least every week. And, keep this appointment with yourself like it's a date with someone important to you. (I hope you are important to you.) Taking this time out on a regular basis is the key to being energized, staying calm, and feeling good about all the decisions you have to make during the busy time of year - about what you eat, what you buy, how you spend your time, etc...

I recommend you pull out your calendar right now and set aside your self-care appointments before the holiday invitations start coming in. The trick is to honor these appointments with yourself by saying no to invitations that conflict, or if you can't or don't want to say no to an important event, rescheduling your self-care appointment to another time that day or day that week. The key is making self-care a priority and sticking with your commitment to relax and rejuvenate. This will also help you avoid the cold and flus going around - you can read more about that here...

Now if you're one of those people that find it much easier to keep an appointment for self-care if someone else is meeting you there - I have created a Float Through the Holidays Program just for you. Meet me at my office every week or every other week through the holiday season for an hour of deep relaxation and rejuvenation with Reiki. As an added bonus, during our time together, we'll look at any stress, tension, fatigue, or worry challenges in your life and create solutions for you. Would you like to Float Through the Holidays? Or know anyone who would like to? Call or email me to find out how one of these holiday special programs can help you make that happen.
