💚 Christmas Hours & Christmas Support Calls 💚

As we move into the final lead up to the holiday season, it's not unusual for emotions to feel heightened. Anxiety levels can rise, loneliness feels sharper, grief surfaces and the pressure "to do the right thing" - even when it is the last thing you want - can weigh heavily.

If you are finding this time of year difficult, I want you to know you are not alone, and you don't have to carry it all yourself.

I am aware that many services pause over Christmas, but I want to ensure you still have a space to feel seen, heard, and supported. That’s why I offer free 30-minute nurturing calls during the Christmas period.

💛 These sessions are designed to provide:

A listening ear

A space to acknowledge how you are feeling without judgement

Find a sense of peace and calm

👉Book your call here Nurturing Calls over Christmas - https://calendly.com/samanthahardwickcoach/nurturing-calls

Don’t hesitate to reach out, sometimes, sharing what's on your mind is the first step to feeling lighter. Together we can help you find a bit of peace and calm.

Meditation - I know I know you are probably already shouting at me “I don’t have time for this – are your crazy?”

But you only need to do 10 mins and believe me by taking that time to meditate it will help change your state of being and you can get going again from a much calmer, positive and more grounded place because you are not supposed to spend your days feeling stressed and overwhelmed, living from fight or flight and pumping stress hormones through your body (don’t even get me started on the long term health ramifications of that - I will save that for another day).

Keep your immune system boosted – when we are busy and stressed our immune system is lowered so ensure you eat plenty of vegetables especially ones which are high in Vitamin C like red bell pepper, garlic, ginger and spinach, increase your intake of fruit. Drink plenty of water to help flush out the toxins and to keep you hydrated. Take supplements of Vitamin C and D.

Happy Winter Solstice - a time to reflect and clear, what do you need to let go of?

Take some time today to rest, reflect, journal and let go of what no longer serves you and if you have time start to think about what you want to create and manifest next year.

Spend some time out in the sun today connecting with nature. Remember it only gets lighter from here.

A Mindfulness Tip to calm the mind and body.

Whilst you wait for the kettle to boil why not do some breathing or some stretching to calm and ease out your body.

Try breathing in for a count of 2 and out for a count of 2 increasing the distance with each breath - in for 3 out for 3 , in for 4 out for 4, in for 5 out for 5 until you get to 6.

Try doing a few squats holding onto the kitchen counter if you need to or do some lunges whilst you wait for the kettle.

When there is so much to do we forget to take ‘time out’ – this is your reminder to schedule some ‘time out’ just for you during the day.

Often we feel guilty taking time out when there is so much to do but we all deserve a break. This can be anything from 10 minutes to a whole afternoon!

Maybe journal some ideas of what self-care looks like for you as it is different for everyone – it may be sitting down and enjoying a cup of tea, curling up with a book, taking a bath, walking in nature, having a nap – the list is endless.

Have you tried journaling yet?

It allows you to vent those unvoiced feelings and clear the head.

If you are journaling in the morning you could write about how you feel about the day ahead, what tasks you have to complete, how you are going to do that.

If you are journaling in the evening you could write about what went well, listing things you are grateful for or even what self-care you are going to build into your schedule the next day.

If you are a stationery addict like me then I am sure you have a notebook or two spare so go grab it and start journaling, maybe light a candle, make yourself a tea and take time to clear your head.

Juggling all the different roles and responsibilities I have there are things that sometimes get missed but I once I realise I pause, take a breath and say to myself I am doing my best.

Today I realised I had not cooked the red cabbage for my mum and myself and whereas before I would have beaten myself up I now paused, took and breath and put it into action so it cooks whilst I work this morning ready to take to her tomorrow when I go up to celebrate her 89th birthday.

If you are juggling and feeling pulled in different directions, just pause, breath and be gentle with yourself and affirm "I am doing the best I can and I choose to remain calm".

Have a peaceful day ✨️
