Pause Button

Two days ago, it was Thanksgiving here in the USA.

Which means full-speed-ahead to Christmas and New Years.

It is hard not to feel the rush-and-tumble of the holidays ahead. But I want to encourage you to press pause every day over the next month, even if it’s just for a moment.

Pause for a few moments to enjoy the sunrise or the sunset. Pause for a few moments to really enjoy that seasonal treat you are inhaling. Pause for a few moments to appreciate the family you have around you and the friends who stayed in touch through COVID. Pause for a moment to revisit your inner child and kick your feet through the fallen leaves – or build a snowman, if you have enough of the white stuff already!

Just pause. Find those moments of everyday Bliss and be fully present with them. Express gratitude in your heart for the moment – let yourself smile, let yourself enjoy it – then keep going with your day until the time comes to hit Pause again.

Enjoy the moment.

Happy Thanksgiving!
