- 61: shining a light on 6 times to be mindful this holiday seasonThe holidays are in full swing and December days seem to come and go with every blink! This time of year always seems to go by so quickly. All of a sudden it is January 1st and I’m left with a vacation hangover and Christmas decorations covering my home that I’m not ready to take down! With all of the parties, traveling, and family time, it’s easy to let time get away from us. The holidays can also bring up a lot of emotions that can take away from the present moment and make this time of year difficult at times. In this week's episode we will be chatting about ways to stay mindful of ourselves and our surroundings this holiday season in order to fully experience these days, give ourselves more self-compassion, and create more memories. I will see you in the episode!!Wishing you zest & light,StephanieReach out and say hi! Email me at [email protected].

44 min - 59: shining a light on being grounded in gratitude (a guided meditation + chat)It's a beautiful time of year to practice gratitude! Join me today in a guided meditation plus a little chat about how to stay grounded in gratitude. Just as a tree's roots lead back to the tree itself, anchoring it throughout harsh seasons and making sure it develops and continues to grow, our own roots in our life keep us grounded and stable no matter what we might be going through. They remind us who we are and how we've grown through the years. Grab a cozy space as we reflect on the major roots of our lives and all of the little pieces of ourselves that we have to be grateful for each and every day!Wishing you zest & light,Stephanie =)Reach out and say hi!

- 58: shining a light on loving and appreciating your body (with special guest Ally Rae Pesta)Welcome to this very special episode of Citrus & Sun! One goal I have for this podcast is to spread more awareness about mental health and to bring topics like mental health and mental illness into the conversation. I am so grateful for this energizing and inspiring conversation that I had with Ally Pesta, and am excited to share her light with all of you in this episode.Ally is a published author, yoga teacher, public speaker, and body empowerment coach. Her recently published memoir, Beyond My Body, has already created a space for so many readers to connect with her words, learn from her story, and share their own struggles with mental illness and body dysmorphia. Ally tells an authentically raw story about her ongoing healing journey, showing how treatment has enabled her to accept support, create community, build a healthy relationship with movement, and enjoy food. For any individuals, family members, or friends on a similar journey, this frank memoir provides hope for overcoming trauma and achieving hard-earned self-love. I am so excited to dive into this memoir with Ally in this episode and for you to hear more about her journey.I want to give a *content warning* that this conversation does include discussions about eating disorders and body dysmorphia. Some content could be sensitive to some listeners. If this episode does not support you at this time that is okay. Please take care of yourself and also remember how special and important you are to this world.Wishing you zest & light,Stephanie =)Reach out and say hi!
