On the 7th day of Solstice...
As you know, I think self care is one of the most important things in the world. It sounds silly, that an act of taking care of yourself in a loving way can have epic results on your life but it's true. It helps lessen and relieve stress, anxiety, and depression. It creates self love, self-worth, and self-esteem. It allows you to get to know your mind and your body.
It has a ripple effect throughout your life.
It's always hardest (at least for me) to keep up with the self care during the holidays and that's usually when I need it the most. I created this worksheet to help you bring some self care mindfulness and intention into your life.
What things do you need to let go of this holiday season? It might be an obligation that you need to say 'no' to, stress or tension, not making time for yourself. Write down the things that you can include into your life to relieve stress. Taking time to watch an episode of Doctor Who with a mug of cocoa or scheduling in meditation. Give yourself permission to take a day off, to sleep in late, to buy yourself an awesome Christmas gift. Do your self-care!

Celebrating Solstice: What Christmas shows or movies do you watch every year?
I love the movie Love Actually, it always makes me cry. I also love the Lifetime movies Ebbie and On the 2nd Day of Christmas, mainly because it has a very young, very yummy Mark Ruffalo in it. I can't imagine a better way to get into the Christmas Spirit! :)
