Christmas is coming soon! Hi Natural Health Family. Imagine all are getting better, doing well, or gearing up for some holiday celebrations. What a time we live in with everything that has transpired over the past months. It seems like so much is going on when you look at tv, social media, what’s happening worldwide, or even what is needed to get done for the holidays. Although there can be times when things seem so intense and trivial that we can want to fight against them, for the sake of our health and well-being it is important to look for the good.
What do you think about when the topic of Christmas comes up? Do memories of burning the turkey come up, not quite getting the right gift, the craziness of shopping in the stores, having to travel to everyone’s houses, etc? Or do you think about getting to eat food you don’t normally, cooking food for others to enjoy, enjoying Christmas music and movies, spending time with loved ones, and the list goes on. Of course there can be times and moments when things don’t quite work the way we had planned. That is perfectly alright. You never hear good stories that are just nice all the way through. You sometimes want to experience the adversary but ultimately how it all worked out. So although things, events, even people, might not invoke the best in others, it is important, especially in these times to look for the good.
Christmas is different for everyone. Some will enjoy it with all the fun and laughter. Others will talk about politics, the economy, and other topics. And some will remember how loved ones aren’t around to experience it with anymore. Remember that at the heart of it, Christmas is meant to liven the spirits of many, to rejoice in the company of others, and to appreciate what we have and the time we get with those we love. Bless you all as we head into the Christmas season.
