One of my biggest life lessons as a caretaker is I must keep taking care of myself. When I let my daily self-care habits go then suddenly I am lost. This January I’m focusing on wintering. Finding the spaces to just be and breathe. Yes, I’m working and doing my day to day but I’m also taking some moments to do things for myself. Make myself a healthy meal, read a bit, do yoga for 10 minutes, or find the best essential oil for my mood. These daily habits support me in the chaos of life and then life suddenly doesn’t feel so heavy.

What daily habits are you doing that ground you and bring you back to you?

Take a moment this morning to set your intention for the year. It doesn’t have to be big or bold. Simply finding one word to repeat that you can come back to is enough.

May 2026 be all of this and more!

Breathe. Today I will breathe and let go of those things that no longer serve me. This time between. Christmas and the new year is about letting go and resetting. Yoga will be apart of letting go this weekend. Quiet time for just me will be part of letting go. Meditation and prayer will be apart of letting go.

How will you let go of 2025?

The holidays can be hard. Busy days and nights. Difficult interactions with family you might not normally see. Eating too much sugar and drinking too much wine. And the mess and chaos of parties and presents and all of it thrown together.

When it all feels too much…come back to the breath. Let it begin to calm the body and the mind. Then, you can begin to enjoy this season. Then you can feel the breath nourish and support you.

Hey my cold Illinois friends: We will be canceling our grief yoga tomorrow morning, Dec. 14th due to low registration for this class in combo with the extreme cold. Don’t want people showing up in the cold who might be just coming out. Stay home and stay snuggled into your warm houses!

If you are struggling with grief this season please reach out for one on one support!
