NOVEMBER 2015: self-care toolbox

Dear Friends,

November is here and holiday festivities will be soon starting…so what are you consciously doing to stay centered and take care of yourself at this time? 🙂

In my Holiday Self-Care Toolbox, the two things I will be relying most, will be:

1. Making a point not to miss my daily yoga practices
2. And, consciously choosing fresh and nourishing over sweet and chocolatey :).

I’m slowly learning, when things are the busiest and I think, “I’ll just skip yoga/meditation today” or “I don’t have time for lunch”…that is actually when I need it the most or else the chances of overwhelm and sweet cravings knocking on my door is much more likely. 🙂

I know it’s not as easy as it sounds…but even when you’re on the go….grabbing an afternoon smoothie over a pumpkin latte or Chipotle Veggie Bowl over some other kind of fast food is an alternative that is most likely going to give you a boost in energy rather than make you feel dull and lethargic. And sometime my meditations may only happen for 10 mins…but in my book a little is better than none. Being hard on ourselves does not really help stress levels, lol :)….believe me, I know!

What’s in your HOLIDAY SELF- CARE TOOLBOX? Leave me a comment below….I’d love to hear what you do!
