Merry Christmas & may your dreams come true in 2011.

"Learn to get in touch with the silence within yourself and know that everything in this life has a purpose."

Elisabeth Kubler-Ross

Give yourself the best present this xmas - take time out for you.

Today, as a volunteer at the local nursing home, I had a conversation with a wife of one of the residences. Her husband has been there for 2 years. Every day she comes to spend the day with him, keep him company, feed and tend to his needs. He has Alzheimer’s and she has cared for him for 8 years. As we chattered I asked her “do you take time out for yourself”? Her response was “No, I feel my place is with him here and it breaks my heart if I am not. It is what I feel I must do, come here for my husband”. The sadness in her eyes as she opened up to me expressing emotion (nearly to tears, but she was unable to give to herself because of guilt). She misses out on family time, not even going to celebrate her granddaughters 18th birthday thinking she would not be able to cope that her grandparents are not together. She doesn’t see friends, go to the movies, etc. After listening I asked her to think about giving herself a small amount of time and then I asked if I could give her a hug. At first she was unsure even to do this, but then she did and it was nice. It is so important to give to yourself first with what makes us happy. To give only to others will drain you until there is nothing left to give. Remember: Cup half full not Cup half empty.

Here are some ideas to help with stress of the silly season.

1. Go for a walk
2. Take a relaxing bath. Light some candles and play some music.
3. If you are having celebrations at home ask others to bring a plate.

4. Accept only the invites you wish to go to.
5. Put on some uplifting music and dance, it raises your vibration.


Goal setting


Take the time to write down what you would like to happen in 2011.

With 2011 getting closer it is a great opportunity to set your vision, goals, wishes for what you would like to achieve over the next year.

Maybe you would like a new home, car, or holiday? Find that perfect partner? Change careers, find a new job, and get a pay rise. Find inner contentment? Whatever it is, start it now.
This year after my breast cancer I created a book called “Dreams can come true” – I pasted pictures that related to what I had been through and things, places, dreams I would like to have. My biggest wish was the trip to Hawaii. I have since booked this for next April - it is going to be wonderful.
