Christmas Stress….
Tis the season for stress and tension…falalalala…lalalala… When I was a massage therapist this time of year really stressed people out. My practice was so busy coming into the holiday season. It was good for my pocket book but I wondered why people became so stressed.
Most of my clients were sensitive people and I wondered if everyone was stressed as much as they were. If we listen to the news we can tell how most people are reacting to the stress. BADLY….
It never made sense to me that a time of year meant for peace on earth and goodwill towards men caused the complete opposite for most people.
Stress is certainly the culprit. At Christmas time there seems to be that much more to do and even less time to do it in. Wouldn’t it be great to just stop rushing around and be fully present with the moment?
Starting each day with a short meditation helps to keep you grounded in the present moment. We now know that engaging the right hemisphere of the brain is the key to being one with the moment. Meditation, Deep Breathing, Contemplation, Focus, all are helpful.
It is just a matter of deciding to do it and then following through with your intention.
Be peaceful this season.
