A Minimal-ish Holiday

A Minimal-ish Holiday

The holidays are meant to be about peace, joy, and togetherness … but they often end up steeped in chaos, rush, and overspending.

Not this year! There’s really no better time than right this minute to practice slowing down and getting intentional *before* we say yes to another obligation or hit ‘add to cart’.

On today’s show podcast host Desirae Endres reminds us that the holidays aren’t just for kids; they are for us to enjoy too.

 

Here’s a preview:

[6:30] First things first: We can’t manufacture perfection, and kids make their own magic

[11:00] Are you the behind-the-scenes magic maker? The importance of remembering what YOU love about the season

[23:00] Protect your peace by zeroing in on what’s within your control

[29:00] Focus on contentment, not on comparison! Shining light on the chasm between our idealized (ahem…commercialized) celebrations versus real life

How To Let Stuff Go

When we let go of what doesn't serve us, we remove weight that holds us down. On today's show we turn to Zen Buddhism for wisdom on letting go of anxiety about the future, grudges, stuff, dead relationships, and more.

Here's a preview:

[4:00] Insanely anxious about the future? (Me too!) Don't spend your energy worrying; do this instead

[12:00] Think of decluttering not as throwing stuff away; think of it instead as setting your stuff (and yourself!) free

[19:00] How to let go of lost friendships and relationships, straight from the mouths of Buddhist monks

[26:00] Holding a grudge requires vast amounts of energy so become skilled at forgetting

[34:00] You're going to get to where you're meant to go, so there's no need to second-guess your choices
