Greetings!
Greetings to YOU and a Warm Holiday Welcome to our new Subscribers! I'm so delighted you're a member of our fast-growing community of high-achieving women who want to work smarter (not harder) while moving through challenges with more confidence, grace and ease.
I know you're super busy, so I'll be quick, OK?
Yesterday I almost did it again! You know that overwhelmed feeling of "there's too much to get done and not enough time?" That sense of urgency that has you convinced you're so far behind that you'll never catch up?
That's the trap I used to fall into every year, but this year it was different! WOO HOO! Instead of driving myself to exhaustion (just to spend Christmas in bed with strep throat as in years past), I honored my fatigue. I stopped smack dab in the middle of Target to "flip" the panic back to peace.
After taking a deep breath, I offered to myself the self-compassion I'm always talking about with my clients...the words "everything will get done and that I will enjoy every minute!" made all the difference in how I handled the situation... Although I wasn't finished shopping, I went home to my family, had some hot chocolate, and went to bed at 8 pm.
NOT taking care of ourselves, especially when we're busy, is a stressful trap that many of us fall into. I'm here to remind all of us "doers" that we can't have an enjoyable Christmas if we aren't coming from a positive place. People can sense when you're sending off vibes that you aren't feeling up to the festivities.
Perhaps if you're feeling the pressure to get everything done, like I was, that this helps you escape the panic zone by reminding you it's OK to say NO and set boundaries on your time and energy when you need to, so you can say YES to the people, places, and things that fulfill you.
Wishing you well in 2013 and beyond!

Synergy Success Story!
Janene Good
R.N. & Echocardiogram Sonographer
Have you ever been "stuck", or felt like you were "circling the drain"? Or had unhealthy patterns that were hard to let go of, or move beyond?
That was me last fall and I just didn't feel like myself. There were a variety of reasons for that, but it was up to me to overcome it and take responsibility. My happy, joyful self was buried and I needed "me" back!
I partnered with Christina to work together to move forward to a healthier place. Together we focused on my core values, my strengths and developing Stellar Self Care. Am I perfect at that? Absolutely not, but I'm more aware and I'm in a much better place and continuing to move forward.
For me, I needed to work in partnership. It helped me to be accountable, and provided additional healthy, helpful insight to move to a better place in life. I've learned how to develop a meaningful morning practice, to live more intentionally, and to react differently in unhealthy situations (most of the time).
We hear so much about saving for retirement and putting money in a retirement plan. I think it's important to invest in our health-our whole health (mind, body and spirit). This partnership with Christina was an investment in me! I work in healthcare and see the effects of choices all of the time-some good choices and some not so much. Just like exercising or eating properly, developing great mind-body-spirit connections is just as necessary-in fact, it's imperative for true wellness.
Christina is an awesome coach and friend! I'm truly grateful for her being a part of my journey!

Hilarious Chinese Gift exchange) |
May you always have:
Walls for the winds,
A roof for the rain,
Tea beside the fire,
Laughter to cheer you,
Those you love near you,
A sunbeam to charm you,
A sheltering angel, so nothing can harm you.
May there always be work for your hands to do,
May your purse always hold a coin or two.
May the sun always shine warm on your windowpane,
May a rainbow e certain to follow each rain.
May the hand of a friend always be near you,
And may God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you!
And especially,
May the blessings of each day
Be the blessings you need most. |
