December

If you were part of the Holidays with Kids webinar (if not, you can catch the replay here), then you heard my story about my family's awkward Christmases that left me feeling not-so-seen, and definitely not like a real part of things. And I know I'm not alone.

 

This month, our theme is Rituals & Traditions.

​

I think most of us come with a pretty mixed bags of things that we enjoyed from our childhood, and things we didn't. I want us to take this first week of December, before things get totally chaotic, to reflect on the rituals and traditions that we carry with us: good and bad. 

Weekly Challenge: 

 

Take some time to think about the things that you might intentionally try not to think about. Reflect on the rituals and traditions that you witnessed and experienced in your own childhood, how they made you feel, and the lasting impact they've had on you.

 

You might have some tough things to feel over the next days, or, you might be filled with warmth and joy! My guess is, it's going to be a mix of both. 

 

As always, if you feel comfy, please do tell us all about your thoughts in the WhatsApp Community!
