To be honest, the winter season tends to get the best of me. The cold, short days and lack of sunlight really take their toll on my mental health. Leaning hard into cinnamon tea, anything heated, lots of baths, and loads of twinkle lights.

What works for you?

On this Winter Solstice, the darkest night of the year, I'm reminded that the hardest times in my life have also brought more wisdom, compassion, and resilience, albeit painfully. May you remember tonight, and every night, that the light always returns. It returns on it's own time, but every time.

As we approach the darkest day of the year, I have been wondering how I can extend myself more grace when I need it most. Though I know shaming myself never works, it's always my default when I make a mistake or struggle with something.

Brene Brown says, "Talk to yourself as you would talk to someone you love." So that, is where I will start. Gentle reminders that I am always learning and growing, and I value progress, not perfection.

How do you extend grace to yourself?

Practicing gratitude works. Science agrees!
Try writing down some of the bright spots of your year and see how it makes you feel.
For me, it's my backyard. Twinkle lights, new porch furniture and a fire pit make for great family memories (and a painful one too).

As the year of the Snake draws to a close, consider what you may need to shed moving forward.

Clutter?

Clothes?

Relationships?

A Job?

In order to cultivate a life we love, we must be willing to let go of the things that no longer serve us.

What are you ready to part with?

As we wind down the calendar year, I'll be posting some daily journaling prompts for you to reflect on. Write down your answers, share with a friend, comment below, or just quietly ponder the questions each day to gently celebrate, learn and grow as the year draws to an end. We will start with reflections on this year, and make our way to dreaming about 2026.

Personally, I am so proud of my first fiscal year as a full time therapist. I am so grateful for the journey that brought me to private practice. I love the work I get to do and the relationships I build with my clients and in the community.

If journaling and dreaming are your jam, check out my Becoming Boards workshop on January 3rd. Link in bio!
