Hoping to spend the holiday season improving your relationship with your inner self? There are a few self-gratitude practices that I recommend and even enjoy myself:
- Keep a daily gratitude journal
- Try meditation or mindfulness exercises
- Embrace compliments from others rather than denying or deflecting them
- Say the things you’re grateful for about yourself out loud

On small pieces of paper, write down things you like about yourself and keep them in a jar

Are you feeling disconnected from yourself? Try dream journaling! Our dreams, although often seemingly nonsensical, are a place where our minds try to make sense of our daily lives. Writing down what you remember from your dreams could help you make connections to issues in your conscious life. Creating art and poetry are also great ways to express yourself.

Have you ever stopped to think about what frustrates you? Have you ever considered WHY those things frustrate you? Spending time with those feelings can feel uncomfortable and maybe even stressful. But confronting them directly is what can help remove or reduce the negative feelings we have toward them.

The colder months can be a bit difficult for some. Less sunlight can mean a reduction in serotonin. Fall and Winter are often the onset seasons for Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD).

I want to remind you that you have the strength to get through your lows. Taking the time to explore and question those protective and wounded parts of your inner self can make the ultimate difference.

If you’re not sure how to go about this journey inward, reach out to me. I’d be happy to help guide you through this exploration.
