I was having coffee with a friend last week, and she was talking about how much stress she was feeling just thinking about the holiday season. She even mentioned that she was feeling like the Grinch, not looking forward to the holidays at all. All of a sudden I found myself singing in my head – \u201c\u2018Tis the season to be jolly, fa la la la la, la la, la la\u201d.<\/p>\n

So what\u2019s making you feel \u201cGrinchy\u201d and stressed about the upcoming holiday season? Is it all the holiday parties, dinner parties, New Year\u2019s parties, parties to plan for the parties parties? All that noise, noise, noise, noise. What if this holiday season you felt jolly? What if you felt joy?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

For me, I get all \u201cgrinchy\u201d when I listen to that internal voice telling me I \u201cshould\u201d do something. When I hear \u201cshould\u201d there is a very good chance that I\u2019ll do the opposite. I feel \u201cjolly\u201d when I\u2019m saying \u201cyes\u201d to what brings me joy. Not running from event to event, getting fresh air and exercise with my family, games nights with my kids, staying in and watching movies, having a few dinners and visits with friends, date nights with my hubby, time to read with a cup of tea…these are a few of the things that bring me such joy.<\/p>\n

If there is a \u201cshould\u201d attached to your thought, it might be time to just say no. I should stay the full two weeks at my parents, I should go to that holiday party, I should squeeze in that dinner with them, I should… We can should ourselves crazy. It\u2019s not to say those things we think we \u201cshould\u201d do are not important, they likely are. It\u2019s just more about asking ourselves what brings us joy, and taking responsibility for creating space for it in our lives.<\/p>\n

Knowing what brings us joy, starts with self-awareness. There is a reason that I am so protective over weeknights at home with my family, and why sitting in my favourite chair reading with a cup of tea brings me so much joy. They are aligned with my values. I know that honouring my values on a consistent basis brings me such joy.<\/p>\n

So, this holiday season, what would make you jolly – what will bring you JOY?<\/p>\n
