Chill Out When Stressed Out

Life can be stressful at the best of times.

I don’t know about you, but I am finding that personal and professional expectations and demands seem to be steadily increasing at an alarmingly rapid rate. Including (OK, ESPECIALLY) those I put on myself. Yikes!

And particularly as we approach the holiday season…

Holidays!! I do love the festivities, and getting together with family and friends. I enjoy the jovial atmosphere. The fun and sharing. The camaraderie.

But it seems like the pace of life this time of year gets a bit more frantic than I would like. In fact, I’ll go and admit it…. Sometimes I just wish I could fast-forward straight to January and be done with it all. Bah humbug!

And it is especially challenging when we are looked to by our clients as a source of relaxation and calmness.

So in the midst all of the holiday “to dos” I think that it is important to take the time to create some balance and inner calmness. In the next couple of weeks I’ll be sharing with you some time-tested ways of “chillin out” as well as a few of my own personal favorites. And I’d love to hear how other practitioners stay peaceful and nurture themselves during times of holiday stress.
