Christmas isn’t always easy, in fact sometimes it’s hard.

A few years ago, I noticed my most expensive gift was from my boss. I was immensely grateful for it but it reminded me of my own personal Achilles heel.

You see, it wasn’t so much the monetary value of the gift, it was what it reminded me of.

Loss.

In truth I felt sorrow for not having a partner, parents, siblings nor children to buy me a ‘big’ present. Or not buy one, if we couldn’t afford it.

So, I determined that if a ‘main’ present from a significant loved one was THAT important to me, then I’d damn well buy it myself.

It helped!

But the thing that helped the most was that I didn’t judge my thoughts and feelings.

I had felt lost and alone; I yearned for my parents, who had died many years before. But I accepted and allowed ALL of those messy, uncomfortable and painful emotions.

I didn’t ignore how I felt nor what I thought. I didn’t tell myself to stop feeling sorry for myself. I didn’t feel shame for feeling that way.

I simply accepted that that was how I felt.

And that’s my message to you this Christmas season.

No matter how you think or feel, please don’t judge yourself or your emotions.

Please don’t determine how you think you ‘should’ feel and then berate yourself for not feeling that way.

Christmas can be bloody hard sometimes, please be gentle with you.

Oh my goodness, I’m so excited I can’t stand it!

I will be holding two sessions of my new 90 minute workshop next week!

Free Yourself from Negative Thoughts: 3 Ways to Become Your Own Biggest Ally

We'll look at what negative thoughts are, obstacles that get in our way of changing our inner story and I'll give you 3 ways to move beyond it and become your own biggest ally.

The workshop will be interactive. I'll welcome your input - you'll be free to comment or ask questions as little or as much as you'd like to.

I’ve set the maximum number of participants to eight so we have nice small groups but am happy to run the workshop with even just one person.

There are two slots, over 19 and 20 November. I’ve tried to make it so that all time zones will have at least one option.
