If you’ve felt a little more on edge lately—shorter fuse, busier mind, tighter shoulders—congrats. You’re human during December.
The holidays have a sneaky way of:
• ❄️ speeding up our nervous systems
• ❄️ adding invisible expectations
• ❄️ turning “joy” into a performance sport
So let’s make this practical and playful. ✨☃️
Your Holiday Micro-Reset (takes 60 seconds):
1️⃣ Drop your shoulders like you just realized no one is grading you.
2️⃣ Exhale slowly through your mouth (yes, dramatically).
3️⃣ Ask yourself: “What am I reacting to that doesn’t actually need urgency?”
4️⃣ Choose one thing today to do at 80% instead of 110%.
That’s it. That’s the practice.
You don’t need to manage the holidays perfectly. You just need to stay with yourself while they happen.
If your nervous system could talk right now, what would it ask for more of this week—rest, boundaries, play, or simplicity? Choose one word below 👇 and feel free to elaborate in the comments! 🎄
