Slowing Down for the Season

How I’m Giving Myself the Gift of Rest

I can't believe that next week will already be Hanukkah and Christmas! How is this possible?

Even though Hanukkah feels extremely late this year, I still don't feel prepared—and no, I'm not talking about holiday shopping!

As usual, the end-of-year work crush has felt, well, pretty crushing. And I’ll be honest: I just haven't been able to make the time to truly savor the season so far.

That’s why my gift to myself this year will be time off—time to rest and recharge, physically, emotionally, and creatively. It takes a lot of time and mental space for me to create from a place of love (which is the only place I want to create from), and I’m fully committed to giving myself that grace.

So, if we don’t chat before the new year, now you know why! The next time we catch up, I’m planning on feeling much more myself.

What are you giving yourself this year?
