Silly Season Antics

And How to Escape Them




Here are my Top 3 Tips for escaping Silly Season Antics:


1. Deep BELLY breathing




Main takeaway: JUST BREATHE



2. Solitude 




Main Takeaway: Find solitude, even if it’s in the LOO



3. Journaling - But it must be handwritten.

Here’s the correlation between handwriting and your wellbeing:

Benefits of Handwriting - Psychology Today


It can be as simple as: All is well today.
If you have time for more, all the better.


Main Takeaway: Journal just a FEW WORDS


 

If you can’t manage all 3 tips, just one of them will help. 

BONUS TIP:

Something we can all do. Set a reminder on your phone to take a moment. Just a moment to reflect. Here’s mine:


I’ve set my reminder for 15.00 daily (I know, the list calls itself Morning Intention), for the ENTIRE month of December. I’ve sent myself some pink love hearts to remind me to take a moment to reflect.

And that, my friends, is how you escape Silly Season Antics. Please share these tips with your friends. We could all use a little help during the holidays.

The Kind of Life You Want

Redefining Love and Marriage https://unsplash.com/@jennymarvin Committing to a life-long marriage through difficult times takes a lot of courage. I had to define for myself the kind of life I wanted. Was I willing to forgo some of my identity to take on the characteristics of a partner who, just 30 years ago, was a complete stranger to me? Had I really got to know him at all? In this life that we share, how deeply had we truly got to know each other? Not so deeply at all, I was to learn. In spite of the many epiphanies through our year-long travel escapade, what we did on a daily basis in the humdrum of a nine to five lifestyle eroded the  lessons learnt and the coping mechanisms we had adopted. Outwardly we have a wonderfully marvelous life, yet our invisible introspection, unseen by those around us, slowly dims the light in both of our eyes.

There's Always a Solution I said this to a friend the other day who was struggling with tech stuff. She was so grateful for the boost that  she persevered for an entire week , but she did it!  So let’s just expand on the notion here, that ' there's always a solution.' Elora Canne - Memoir Writer I'm delighted to share my conversation with you, from the Living Big Mindfully podcast where host, Kate Champion, and I discussed many later-in-life relationship topics.  But I'm particularly interested in sharing with you, the notion that there is indeed always a solution .  Not only in everyday life situations, as told above, but also in those deeper, more difficult to navigate situations as you'll discover on the podcast. There is always a way around a hurdle,  even if you can't jump over it. To listen in on our conversation, insights and solutions, tap this link:  Living Big Mindfully Podcast Book News: 🫂 Allow me to focus, just for a minute, on those solut...
