Send us a text
Welcome back to another episode! I hope your week has been amazing. This week, we’re diving into a topic many of us grapple with as the colder months set in: preparing for winter—both emotionally and mentally.
From the shorter days to the build-up to Christmas, this season can feel overwhelming. I asked my Instagram community for their top questions about mental wellbeing during this time of year, and today, I’m addressing them all:
1. Coping with the Winter Blues
- Why shorter days impact our mood and how to work with our bodies instead of against them.
- Embracing the natural rhythm of the season—slowing down and focusing your energy.
- Practical tips for adjusting routines to make the most of daylight and staying mindful of the conversations you engage in.
2. Managing Christmas Shopping & Financial Pressures
- The growing demands of the holidays (Elf on the Shelf, anyone?) and how to prioritize what truly matters.
- Setting realistic financial and emotional boundaries.
- The importance of open conversations to reduce pressure.
3. Setting Boundaries with Family During the Holidays
- Asking yourself the crucial question: What do I want this holiday season?
- Communicating your needs early and with clarity.
- Tips for managing tricky family dynamics, avoiding guilt trips, and enlisting support to navigate tough situations.
4. Overindulging in Food and Drink
- Why moderation and mindfulness are the keys to enjoying festive treats guilt-free.
- The importance of staying active and maintaining a healthy mindset during the season.
- Real-life examples of how to shift your perspective on food and drink.
This episode is packed with actionable advice and strategies to help you thrive during the winter season, from boosting your mental wellbeing to reclaiming control over holiday stress.
Let’s make this winter a season of balance, joy, and mindful living!
