12 ways to slow down this holiday season 🧘✨🫶 If you’re feeling overstimulated, overscheduled and overwhelmed this holiday season, you aren’t alone. Here are just a few ways that you can MAKE yourself slow down and feel more at ease to enjoy your festivities and your loved ones this year. These changes don’t have to be a permanent part of your holiday traditions. But if time and money are limited this year, there is nothing wrong with having discussions with your loved ones to see which areas you wouldn’t mind simplifying this year. The holidays should feel enjoyable. https://lnkd.in/gVSD2KjY

✨This holiday season, let’s embrace the power of creating our own Christmas magic. Too often, we find ourselves following traditions simply because they are expected, losing sight of what truly resonates with us. I encourage you to take a step back and reflect on what makes Christmas feel special for you. Consider crafting new traditions that align with your values and experiences, while still cherishing the ones you hold dear. Whether it’s a unique family ritual, a special recipe, or a community service project, these personalized touches can transform your holiday experience into something truly meaningful. As I cherish the traditions that have shaped my Christmases, I also welcome the chance to embrace new experiences as my family grows. It’s this blend of the old and the new that enriches our holiday experience and strengthens our bonds. Let’s redefine the holiday season together by embracing what truly makes it magical for us. What traditions will you create this year? 🎄🎁✨ #CreateYourOwnChristmasMagic #PersonalTraditions #MeaningfulMoments #HolidayJoy #CelebrateUniquely #FamilyGrowth #EmbraceTheSeason #ChristmasReflections #TraditionWithATwist #DeboraKeegan #MasterlfeCoach #Lifecoach #Tampa #Nextlevel2024

🌟✨ Navigating the Festive Feels 🎄🎆 ✨🌟 As it's the holiday season, we’re faced with one of the great unsolved mysteries of marketing: How do you wish your diverse community of clients and partners joy without stepping on any snowflakes? ❄️ Say Merry Christmas? Someone else might prefer Happy Hanukkah or just an old-fashioned Happy Holidays. Say Happy Holidays? Then what about those who hold Christmas close to their hearts? 🤔 This time of year can feel like juggling candy canes while walking on eggshells—festive yet fragile. 🍭🥚 So, here’s an approach: We’re celebrating YOU. However you honor this time of year—be it with lights, laughter, or a long-awaited nap—we wish you nothing but joy, peace, and prosperity. ❤️ #FestiveFeels #MarketingMindsAtWork #HolidayConundrum #SeasonOfYou #InclusivityMatters #SeasonOfGratitude #CommunityFirst #Marketing

Breaking a 10-Year Christmas “Tradition” While most people celebrate heartwarming holiday traditions, I seem to have developed an unusual one: spending every Christmas weekend battling stomach troubles. It all started in 2014 when I tried to impress my then-new friend during a Christmas outing. I indulged more than I should have, broke my usual habits, and paid the price that evening—spending hours in discomfort. Since then, it’s become a bizarre annual pattern, with different causes: overeating, food poisoning, or trying too many new things in the holiday spirit. This year, I thought I was in the clear—until I wasn’t. But this recurring experience has taught me some valuable lessons: • Balance matters. Overindulgence, even with good intentions, rarely ends well. • Listen to your body. Your limits aren’t the same as everyone else’s. • Breaking cycles takes awareness. Some habits are physical; others might be psychological. As 2025 approaches, I’m committed to breaking this unintended “tradition” for good. What about you? Have you ever had a habit or routine you’ve worked hard to change? Here’s to healthier, happier traditions in the year ahead!

Do you wish the holidays were over? If you trimmed a Christmas Tree did the memories of each ornament trigger emotions? Did they make you smile? Or, were you sad or angry? Are other decorations difficult to look at? Of course, you don’t have to display all of them. Put out the ones that give you comfort. Are you stressing about holiday gatherings? Sometimes the anticipation is worse than attending. But, if you don’t feel up to it, you don’t have to go. You can arrive late or leave early. If you are fretting about it, talk with your host or hostess before the event. I’m sure they will be fine with a late arrival or early exit. Do what you can and don’t worry about the things you prefer not to do. If something you see triggers a memory, whether it is happy or sad, it’s okay to cry, be happy or both. Consider starting new traditions or changing old traditions that bring new memories. Find a way to honor your loved one. If you’re not sure how to get through it, schedule a call with me. Talking through your challenges can help greatly and put you on a better path to find enjoyable moments during this holiday season. Schedule a complimentary call now! https://lnkd.in/eVx7qzvH

What’s one simple holiday tradition that brings your family closer together? Sometimes, it’s not about the elaborate plans or picture-perfect moments—it’s those small, heartfelt traditions that leave the biggest mark. For my family, it’s sitting by the fire watching Christmas movies, sipping on homemade hot chocolate (we make hot chocolate bombs!), and then doing our family sleepover in the family room. It’s a time to slow down, have fun, relax, and just “be.” I’m always curious to hear what others do to create those meaningful, joy-filled memories. Whether it’s baking cookies, a game night, or simply a quiet walk to admire the holiday lights, these traditions remind us of what the holidays are truly about: togetherness. What’s one holiday tradition that has become a cherished part of your family’s celebrations? Share yours in the comments—I’d love to hear them and maybe even adopt a new one this year! #FamilyTraditions #HolidayMagic #MeaningfulMoments #ParentingSupport #ParentingTips #HappyHolidays #MerryChristmas

Merry Christmas is more than just a greeting. It’s a reminder of what truly matters in life. Here’s a thought to ponder this festive season: Christmas is about connection, not just celebration.

This season, let’s reflect on gratitude, joy, and hope. Think about the laughter echoing among friends and family. Consider the warmth of shared memories that will last a lifetime. How have you connected with others this holiday season? Pause and cherish those simple yet profound moments. While the lights twinkle and holiday feasts unfold, remember to appreciate every smile and every shared story. As we step into a new year, let’s carry the spirit of Christmas with us. Support and uplift one another, forge new connections, and foster a culture of learning and growth. May your holidays be filled with happiness and peace. Here's to a season of joy and to a future brimming with possibilities. What does Christmas mean to you? Share your thoughts below.

Here is my latest blog Holiday Sanity Savers. Happy Holidays!

As the holiday season wraps us in its warm embrace, consider giving yourself the gift of presence. I turn down the digital noise for a few days – let those social media notifications wait while you tune into the magical moments happening right in front of you. There's something beautifully simple about disconnecting from our screens to reconnect with loved ones. Whether it's sharing stories around the dinner table, playing board games, or simply sitting together in comfortable silence, these are the moments that truly recharge my spirit. I will take this time to slow down, to notice the twinkling lights, to savor the aroma of holiday treats, and to fully experience of being with family and friends. The online world will still be there when I return, but these precious holiday moments are fleeting. Wishing everyone a peaceful, present, and Merry Christmas. May your days be filled with genuine connections, hearty laughter, and the kind of rest that only comes from unplugging and being truly present. 🎄 Remember, sometimes the best updates are the ones we don't post, but simply live.
