Tips for Staying Grounded During the Holidays
The holidays can bring joy but also stress, overwhelm, and distractions. One powerful way to stay centered during this season is by practicing mindfulness. Instead of rushing through each moment, try to slow down and fully experience it. Here are a few tips:
