Christmas doesn’t have to look a certain way to be valid.
And you don’t have to feel “merry” to belong in this season.
For many, the holidays can bring up mixed emotions — grief, loneliness, overwhelm, or quiet heaviness — especially when everything around us seems bright and joyful. If that’s you, nothing is wrong with you.
This season isn’t about perfection.
It’s about compassion — especially towards yourself.
Move at your own pace. Celebrate in ways that feel safe and meaningful to you. Even small acts of care count. 🎄✨
You’re allowed to rest.
You’re allowed to feel.
You’re allowed to be gentle with yourself.
With warmth,
Inside Out Counselling & Wellness Practice 🤍
