This time of year, the media feeds us the message that we should be relaxed, feel connected to others, and experience joy, but our relationships are complex. Trying to “do it all,” that can leave us feeling exhausted, angry, and resentful. When we take on the roles of planning, shopping, hosting, and managing everyone’s emotions, it’s so easy to put yourself last. I’ve experienced this many times, and it’s not always pretty.
In this episode, I’ll share a recent “aha” moment that reminded me why taking care of yourself isn’t selfish; it’s essential.
You’ll learn:
- A simple mindset shift that can change how you show up for yourself and others.
- The sneaky ways stress may manifest in your body (and how to recognize it before it overwhelms you).
- A 4-step process to manage those overwhelming emotions so you can acknowledge them—without letting them take control.
If you’ve been feeling the pressure of holiday overwhelm, this short episode invites you to slow down, even if it’s just for five minutes to turn inward and process what you might be experiencing in order to manage the holidays and find a little joy in them.
I’m keeping it real, and simple, and sharing practical somatic tools you can use right now. Trust me Freebirds-taking care of yourself is the best gift you can give to the people you love.
Love,
Laurie
