Some comments or actions we may tend to take personally. It may feel like the other person is attacking, snubbing, dismissing, or disrespecting us. Even if we know it’s a trivial moment, we ruminate and roll the situation around in our head for days on end. In the end, we’ve spent a lot of emotional energy, and we may bottle our hurt and frustration.

This week, we’ll learn how to stop taking things personally, how to detect these situations, and how to regulate ourselves when we’re in the midst of stewing over them.

It’s the new year, and maybe you already have a shiny new list of goals you would like to achieve this year in the different pillars of your life; maybe it’s a recycled list of goals that you weren’t able to get to this past year; or, maybe you haven’t even started your new year’s resolutions list.

Before or as you consider your new year’s resolutions, we offer you to shift your mindset: instead of setting goals, consider setting systems.

The holiday season has begun! But, unfortunately, the holidays can easily become overwhelming, hectic, stressful, and exhausting—both at work and home.

As we plan for the holidays, it’s important to know what our expectations and boundaries are for this time of year. So, in the spirit of taking care of ourselves, this week, we are learning how to set and maintain our boundaries during the holiday season.
