HOLIDAY CHEER
KISS = Keep it simple, stupid.
Not at all calling you stupid, but the holiday collective seems to be. Not just November and December holidays, but the whole year seems to be wrapped up in lower vibrations when it comes to what should be celebration in the upper realms.
What can you do? Allow this Holiday Season to hold you, too. Many of us are doers -- must get it all done - types. This taxes our physical and emotional bodies. Feeling overwhelmed with too much to do, too much to see, too many places to go frazzles our insides and causes stress. Relax into this holiday season now and for the new year. Be fully present with yourself and your loved ones. And check in with yourself often to see if you're doing what is in alignment with you or not.
You have permission to take a bath with candles, put your feet up and watch a show, not bake those cookies, not lick stamps, ignore texts and emails, hug your loved ones and lean into it fully, not buy that one last gift, hug yourself and know you are enough. Bring yourself inner cheer by allowing down-time. You don't have to write thank you notes or any cards at all. You can just say, "Thanks," and let that be enough.
You have permission to notice the beauty all around you - the lights, snow, rain, trees, people, wild animals, pets, decorations, warm coffee shops, smiles from strangers, singing, church bells, and the sun and the moon.
You have permission to open your heart with love, joy, honesty, faith, playfulness, celebration as well as sadness, despair, anger, fear, and doubt.
You have permission to feel all things, to receive and give, to rest and play, to be there and be isolated.
Holiday Cheer comes from within - not without. Allow yourself to have permission to feel and do what is right for you. You are loved and wanted here for what you are feeling and doing now.
Happy Holiday from now and until next time.
Take care of yourself so that you can be fully embodied and fully here for yourself and others.
