Remember...give yourself a break. It's the MOMENTS that count, not the decorations, perfect food, or tablescapes. It's the moments. Give yourself permission to embrace the moments.

A beautiful and frank conversation about grief and the holidays. Be kind to yourself this holiday.

If you found this talk helpful, David will be continuing to support people through this challenging holiday season. Every Saturday until Christmas he will be doing free zoom sessions on coping with the holidays. You will have the opportunity to ask questions or just be in the background.

Meet yourself where you at this holiday. ❄️❄️❄️

If you haven’t sent cards this year, or planned the perfect gifts.
If you don’t have the perfect tree or the perfect family, for a perfect festive photograph.
It’s okay.

If you don’t feel like watching your favourite Christmas movies,
and you can’t source the energy to be merry and bright.
That’s perfectly okay too.

No one should be measuring your ‘festive’.
It must not become a badge of honour.
Just hang on in there, finding any joy you can, in any little way.

And remove guilt and pressure, from your already overloaded Christmas list.

Because no matter how sparkly your advent, you can feel the sentiments of the season.

Your way.

Peace, love and goodwill to all.

Happiness cannot be traveled to, owned, earned, worn or consumed. Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace and gratitude. ~ Dennis Waitley 🦋🌻🦋

Most adults need at least seven hours of sleep, and getting too little can harm your mental and physical health. Follow these tips to regain your rest.
