7 Mindfulness Quotes for Holiday Self-Care

12/20/2021

0 Comments

 
It's the week before Christmas
and all through the house
Are things I've not done;
I feel like a louse!
I still need to decorate, 
shop, 
clean house, and cook,
I'll be so embarrassed
​if friends stop by for a look!
But then I remember
to heed this advice:

Be mindful, practice gratitude
- that would feel nice.

As I take some deep breaths
for a moment or two,

I feel less overwhelmed
and more peaceful, too!

I hope these quotes will inspire you to use mindfulness to take care of yourself as well.  Try focusing your attention on your breath, your body, or your surroundings.  Or use awareness as you do an activity you find relaxing, such as walking or jogging; dancing or listening to music; journaling, drawing, or painting; sewing, baking or gardening.  You may also want to focus your mind on positive thoughts, like the people and the things you are grateful for and the things you've been able to accomplish.

When the stress of the holidays - or life in general - gets you down, try a few mindfulness practices.  Perhaps, as they did for me today, they will help you feel a little calmer.

All of us at ECS are wishing you peace and happiness this holiday season!
