This month always seems to bring good moods, good food and lots of gifts. Whether you go all out for the season ,or you prefer a quiet retreat at home, my wish is that you take a moment to savor every last bit of it.

The holiday magic is fleeting, as it only comes but once a year. For some of us, it’s when we see the first snow fall, and for even more of us, it’s the only time of the year when we get extended time off from work.

As the pace of the month increases with an ever-growing list of “Things to Do”, I encourage you to pause and take a step back and maybe make a list of “Things Not to Do.”

• Do not stress about giving the best gift.

• Do not fret about making the best meal.

• Do not agonize about eating that extra holiday cookie you loved so much.

The rest of the year has its stressors, and they will be there after this holiday season passes—trust me. Right now, I encourage you to focus on what matters. Maybe that is quality time with your friends, family and pets, or perhaps it’s quality time with yourself. Whatever it is and wherever you are - be there fully.

Until then,
