๐โIt doesnโt feel like Christmas.โ๐
Iโve heard it 100x this week, and Iโve said it a few myself! It has flown by this year, and I've felt "rushed" through the holiday cheer.
But regardless friends, Christmas is right around the corner! (God bless Amazon Prime)
I know it would be easy to call it - to give yourself (or myself!) a break - to write off trying to feel โfull of cheerโ or to stay committed to anything but staying warm this week.
But I wonโt and neither should you.
(Its possible to hold a dumbell in one hand and a cup of cheer in the other โ๏ธ ๐๐)
So instead of tapping out- let's just CHEER UP. ๐ฅณ
Sometimes if you need a little magic you have to MAKE it.
โญ๏ธGive up a little control and let your kids wrap some presents ๐
โญ๏ธIf you donโt get to every single tradition donโt fret, pick one or two you enjoy the most!
โญ๏ธSip that coffeee extra slow and let the day just be for a minute.
โญ๏ธDonโt offer to bring something if you donโt actually want to or have time to bring something
โญ๏ธMove your feet to some up-beat jingle jams and count it as your movement
๐Holiday cheer is Just like exercising. I donโt always feel like it; But I can do things that donโt feel cheerful in the moment ๐
Sometimes we are waiting around for a holiday or a person or a change in circumstance to help us FEEL a certain way.
Itโs okay if you donโt feel like it- cheerful, festive, motivated, capable... whatever.
But do yourself a favor and CHOOSE it. โค๏ธ๐
You can do it, and we will Gall get there together. โค๏ธ๐ช๐ป
