As we head into crazy month a.k.a. December, it’s easy to get swept up in the spending, cooking, eating and drinking frenzy. Since I moved to Australia, Christmas has become a laid back affair for our family and usually doesn’t even involve a Christmas Tree. I know, I know, sorry!
I guess that will all change now I have a kid, but we are still ensuring the focus of Christmas is togetherness. Whether that is family or friends, kids or fur-babies, it should be a time focused on experiences and not ‘stuff’.

This is exactly why I grabbed by very good gal pal Lou Kelly, who also happens to be an amazing yoga teacher and mum to adorable Skye, to help us take a few minutes to reset, realign and just remind us all that December doesn’t have to put a strain on your wallet or your mental health.

She has prepared a short, guided meditation, perfect for newbies and aficionados alike. All you need is a quiet spot. It will take 10mins. Then you can step straight back in to the crazy month with a little less stress on your mind.
LISTEN TO THE GUIDED MEDITATION:
If you love this meditation and would like a little more ‘me time’ in your life this month, I highly recommend checking out her next event on the 3rd December on the Northern Beaches, Sydney.
