The Idea of the Week
The best present you can give to yourself and others this season is your presence. This 3-minute article shares tips for being present during a time that is depicted as joyful but can easily become overwhelming.
We can show up for ourselves and for others by first ensuring that we are taking care of ourselves, and that starts with checking in with ourselves:
- Pause
- Breathe
- Ask yourself: “How am I doing?”
- Listen
- Act on what you need
