Here are some printable mindfulness activities to help encourage a sense of gratitude and peace during the holiday period 💙

December is for joy—but what about your peace?  Take a step toward a healthier, calmer holiday.    December’s here, and let’s be real—it’s a beautiful, busy month.     With everything going on, it’s easy for health to fall to the side.     So here’s a thought: what if we made December a little easier on ourselves this year?     What if, alongside the gatherings, we also planned for our own well-being?    Think of the small things that help you feel grounded.     For some, it might be getting enough sleep,   Enjoying quiet moments,   Or just staying hydrated     (yes, I know, but it makes a difference!).     Others might feel better just by taking a short walk each day   Or by saying “no” when they need a breather.     Whatever it is, let’s keep it simple and gentle.    I’d love to hear—what’s one thing you’re doing this December to take care of you?     Let’s share our little steps toward a December that’s not just full but fulfilling.    #DecemberWellness #HealthyHolidays #TakeCare #SmallSteps #ELAKHealth

As Christmas approaches, the festive spirit often means parties, flowing drinks, and lots of good cheer. But it’s also a time when people can unintentionally lower their guard. Ladies, let’s remember this: Your boundaries matter. Whether it’s a crowded party, a friendly gathering, or even a professional celebration, your comfort and safety should always come first. “No” Means No: Your consent is not up for debate, no matter the situation. Stay Aware: Keep an eye on your surroundings and your drink—awareness is your best ally. Stick Together: There’s safety in numbers, so stay connected with trusted friends. The holidays are about joy and connection, but that doesn’t mean compromising your personal space or safety. Let’s prioritize self-respect and look out for each other this festive season. ✨ Your boundaries are a gift—don’t let anyone cross them.

Blessings to you dear LinkedIn community, “May you gift yourself delicious and sacred idleness this festive season”. … You may know of dolce far niente - the sweetness of doing nothing. Sacred Idleness, its more serious cousin takes some work. We don’t just stumble across Sacred Idleness, but intentionally dedicate time and space for it. A time of rest, reflection, restoration and rejuvenation. It can take unlimited forms..you will discover what is right for you.. You may be drawn to go to a nearby park or to the mountains. To regulate. To gain perspective in the glory of nature. Maybe it will involve sitting silently in front of the fire. Encompassed by its warmth and security. Seeing the reflection of your mind in the changing, dancing flames. You literally may go on a retreat.  Or digital detox. To reflect on what the year has meant to you. And what you would like to let go of. And what you wish to manifest. Maybe you just want to hang out at your favourite spot. And to contemplate resilience. Or to sit in joy. To feel the sensations of the sun and air on your skin. And give gratitude to all who and what you love. For some, you will want to meditate.  Others will draw inspiration and solace from a book. Or a podcast. A conversation with the more-than-human world. Or it may be a dedicated 10 minutes to yourself. Between dinner courses or between juggling demands of the dog, children and Zoom calls with relatives. To not only ‘catch your breath’, but to sit there with it. To use a line from a Johnny Clegg and Savuka song. "It is a cruel crazy beautiful world'. May you gift yourself sacred idleness this festive season. And carry on this conscious practice as an ongoing commitment to your health and wellbeing. And may you gift yourself delicious idleness for the same reasons. 💚🥳💚🥳 Access the full blessing blog post below https://lnkd.in/ePZM-BA #sacredidleness #festiveblessings #freedomforall #PeopleAndPlanet
