Happy Holidays!
Enjoy this time with family and friends, or just by your self, if you so prefer.
Find love and peace within you and among you!
Merry Christmas!
For some people the holiday time with friends and family is a time of joy and laughter, for others it’s the opposite. The pressure to do everything in a perfect way, the last personal touch to every detail, home made food, decorations… is just too much.
There are a few simple keys to step out of the stress and joyously embrace the holidays. Some of them may be new, others you know already. If you manage to stay your ground is a question of implementing them in a direct and practical way.
Here are the 3 key strategies you need to have in place so you fully can enjoy your holiday, get re-energized and prepare for the New Year to come.
Key # 1 – Knowing What You Want and Stick To It
When asked, many people don’t know what they want. Still they have a bad feeling when they agree to things they don’t want to do. Knowing what we don’t want is easier to identify because we don’t feel good when we do it. Intuitively we know what is not good for us.
Many of us say yes to things we don’t want to do or have. After working with hundreds of clients I found that most people don’t know where their absolute yes and no are located in their bodies. And they fear they will miss out on acknowledgement, love and appreciation if they say no.
Most stress management techniques teach us that we shall learn to say no and then the problem solves itself. Well, it isn’t quite that easy for obtaining sustainable relaxed balance.
Here are a few questions you can have fun with and learn what yes and no means to you:
How do you know what to say yes and no to?
Where is your absolute yes / no located in your body?
When you say yes, what do you say no to?
Adults make it difficult for them selves by thinking they will not be accepted or people will be angry if they say what they really want. If you want a great role model, look at a child. Children, before they are taught differently, have the innate power to say exactly what they want, or don’t want. Having four kids myself, I know by heart that children are very good at practicing saying NO!
Key # 2 – Knowing Who’s In Play
When you agree to do what you don’t want to do, there is a part of you that requires something. It can be love, acknowledgement or something else you want form the other person. It can also be fear of not belonging, loosing somebody, or not being seen as the great person you are. Knowing what part of you, or what persona, is acting, helps you to understand what’s going on, so you can make a better choice for you.
Following questions will help you become clear about who is out to play:
Who are you satisfying or trying to pleasing by saying yes?
What is it you want? What do you require from that person?
What if pleasing wasn’t so important?
Now when you know the answers to my questions, see how your own “game” is playing out with family, friends, colleagues, and in your closets relationship. Is there something you are willing to change?
Key # 3 – Knowing The Art of Being Present in The Now
How much of your awake time do you live right now? Strange question you may think. Let me reframe it; How much of your awake time are you trying to change something that happened yesterday, or just 5 minutes ago? And how much of your awake time are you planning for the future?
If you are like most people, you have thoughts and feelings of regret, resentment, and anger for something that has happened. Or, you think of what will happen if… or when…
Sadly enough it is a total energy waste! You can not change the past. It’s of no use to plan for “if” or “when” either. It may never happen. Changing the past or worry for the future takes us out of balance and increase stress, anger, fear or sadness.
Here are some questions you can ask yourself when you feel the stress creeping up your back:
Are your thoughts in the past of in the future?
Where is your energy?
If you were fully present, in what you were doing, how would your energy shift?
To shift into the present and focusing your energy on joyful activities, breathing and appreciating is the key tool. Take a few deep breaths and appreciate at least three things you see around you right now.
Bonus: The Number One Key For a Stress Free and Energy Regaining Holiday
In the midst of stress and overwhelm, here is the number one key to instant stress relief;
Close your eyes. Take five deep breaths. Feel the ground under your feet. Feel the presence of your whole body, from the top to the bottom. Breathe again. And yet another breath. Feel how your body relax and how it fills with oxygen.
Enjoy Your Holiday

Life is Like a Piece of Cake, part 2
Have you ever considered all pieces of your life to be parts of the big yummy birthday cake Life is? Many busy professionals are focused on only two or three parts of the whole cake, and they think they will care for the others later, sometime in the future.
In part two of this article we continue to examine our wheel of life:
5. Have fun!
Do you know that babies laugh more than 500 times each day and adults not even 10? Where did all that laugher go? When you laugh you relax and your body thrives. Recreation and joy is one of the most overlooked areas in lives of busy professionals, and it is maybe the one that has the most powerful impact on you, when you pay attention to it.
Question: What would it take for you to have more fun in life?
Action: This week, book time with people you thoroughly enjoy and have fun with.
6. Care for your physical environment
Do you believe your physical environment doesn’t matter? In fact out environment has a big impact on us when it comes to how much at ease we feel with our self and people around us.
Question: What does your ideal environment look and feel like?
Action: What can you do this week to move closer to your ideal?
7. Work your passion
Do you LOVE what you do for work? And how much time do you spend in this career piece? If you are like most busy professionals this is the biggest piece of your cake. That may be ok, the point is to have a balanced relationship with the other pieces, so you release stress and bad conscious, and can concentrate on thriving at work.
Question: If you worked your passion, what would you be doing then?
Action: Where in your current work do you find your passion? Connect to the feeling you have when you do what you feel passionate about.
8. Enjoy your money
Do you work hard for your money? And if you do, do you enjoy the money you’re making? Many women I know feel fear and are afraid of taking responsibility for their own finances. They fall short when they face a challenge like divorce, job change etc.
Question: If you lived in piece and harmony with your finances, how would your life be?
Action: Make completions around money; pay all outstanding bills, pay back people old depths. Set goals how you want your financial life to be.
9. Contribute to your society
Making a difference means contribute from yourself, giving of you to your circle of influence. Contribution must not necessarily mean donating money to organisations you sympathise with. Your contribution can be in writing, lecturing, helping, caring, giving…, and contributing to the betterment of the world.
Question: What do you feel passionate and engaged about?
Action: This week, decide what you will give, and to what/whom you will give it.
