Rejuvenate Your Body:
Hands up all you out there with great energy and low stress levels today.
Now, hands up those of you who are feeling low in energy and rather stressed and frazzled already today?
Either way have you seriously got enough energy to handle the extra stress and demands for the upcoming 37 days before Christmas?
Let’s all be a little bit clever together this year:
With Christmas fast approaching I intend to attentively check in with my body and ask how my energy and stress levels are going a little more frequently. In addition I promise myself to listen and respond accordingly making whatever adjustments and changes I need too. How about you, want to join me in being just a little bit clever this year?
I’m keen to come out the other side of Christmas with fantastic energy levels and minimal stress.
It’s my intention that these Christmas energy alerts catch you just in time before exhaustion sets in. Think of them as your guardian angel of Christmas.
Your Daily Christmas Energy Rescue Tip:
Stop:
Disconnect from what’s happening around you. No talking, looking, searching or moving. Just stop.
Breath:
Now start pulling all your energies back inside your body. The quickest and easiest way to do this is by focusing on your breath. Observe if your breathing is short, shallow and stressed or calm, deep and relaxed. Bring a relaxed rhythm back into your breath.
Listen:
Your body is an intelligent field of energy. It is always talking to you but are you listening. By creating this simple pocket of stillness throughout your day it will allow your bodies voice to rise to your awareness and speak clearly to you. Listen carefully and honor that wisdom.
If you are having trouble connecting to what your needs are then the following two articles should help.

Great recipe! Restoring focus is so important. This year I’m being very kind to myself, by taking my time and shopping online! Plus, as you suggested, I practice breathing and long walks.
