Calling all friends…throw yourself a holiday gathering, but keep it simple. Remember the idea here is to connect not to kill yourself working to make it the perfect event. Perhaps you know someone who is without family for the holidays. Try to include them in one gathering and share your friends with them. What can be more simple than a potluck or each person bring their own lunch and meet at the beach, a park or somewhere no one has to clean up. Just each person taking care of themselves and meeting to share a laugh, a story or lend an ear. The important thing is the friendships. Our lifeline...
What feelings can you name that are indicators of where you are on the emotional scale? If ten is perfect and one is the bottom, where are you on this measuring stick? Feeling words...happy, mad, glad, sad, angry, lonely.
Now think of the lunch hour you just spent with these buddies, even if only in your mind, does this give you a boost? A relief? I surely hope it does for you what it can do for me, I just love my friends.
Enjoy my gift to you, my friend, a purpose meditation guide to help you relax and enjoy more, this holiday season.
