My Holiday Prayer For You

My Holiday Prayer For You

I searched high and low
To find the right prayer for you today
To show you just how much I care
and appreciate all that you do
No matter what I found
It just wouldn’t do
As my heart kept telling me
Something else to do
So I took my pen in hand
and went straight to you
Oh Father I am so grateful
You always show me the way
To speak my words
From this place of today
So Dear Friends
What I am trying to say
Is that I am truly thankful
For people just like you
Who have touched my life
So deeply and shaped me anew
In this season of rebirth
Of all that is pure
Please accept my words as my gift
So you will know them forever more

With Much Love,

A Thanksgiving To Remember

A Thanksgiving To Remember

Remembering Your Departed Loved Ones

As we enter this day of Thanksgiving and we count our blessings,  there may be people who have passed on from our lives that we deeply miss.  Although we may feel sad, we can still honor them with the same joy of Thanksgiving as if they are still here.Here is an excerpt from James Van Praagh’s article – Remembering Your Departed Loved Ones During The Holidays that you may find helpful:

When you are enjoying an almost perfect holiday event this season and think to yourself “I wish Dad was here to enjoy this” comfort yourself with the knowledge that he is closer than you think!
*    Acknowledge those who have passed in a special way – display a favorite holiday photo of that person, make their favorite recipe, or use a serving piece that belonged to them during the meal. You can even set them a place at the table- any small gesture that brings them closer will be appreciated!
*    Encourage family members to share a memory. Pick a time where everyone can share a memory or story about the person who has passed. Let the dead know that they are loved and remembered.
*    Be open to signs. Be open to subtle scents, sounds, and thoughts that signal the presence of your loved ones – and respond to them, “hi mom!” so Spirit knows you are aware of them.

HOLIDAY STRESS

HOLIDAY STRESS
Did you know that holiday stress has a particular impact on women?
According to a US Holiday Stress Report, “Women generally take charge of many of the holiday celebrations, particularly the tasks related to preparing meals and decorating the home.In addition, they have a harder time relaxing during the holidays and are more likely to fall into bad habits to manage their stress, like comfort eating.”
The report also revealed that the holidays have an impact on lower middle income individuals. “This group feels the weight of stress from work plus the seasonal rush to find time to get everything done.In addition, their worries about money are heightened by the commercialism of the season and the pressure to spend a lot of money.”
Last week I offered a tel-class that covered holiday stress and I mentioned that I would be offering a follow-up workshop.
The goal of this workshop is to keep you mindful of your emotional triggers and  financial budget so you can enjoy the season without the additional stress and worry.
THIS IS AN ON-LINE EVENT THAT WILL TAKE PLACE ON:
MONDAY, NOVEMBER 30TH,
7:30-9:00 PM ET
INCLUDED IN THE WORKSHOP:
  • PowerPoint Presentation
  • Workbook
  • Q&A Time
  • Recording for Future Reference
As my way of giving back to you during this season, I have priced this event at only $69.99
It is jam packed with incredible value that will keep on giving way beyond the holiday season.
I encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity.

Thanksgiving – A Time To Be Thankful

It’s My Favorite Time Of Year…

Thanksgiving is a time when traditions come into our reality and play a vital role in how we celebrate this wonderful holiday.  From cooking the turkey, baking desserts and decorating the house, it’s also a time when we get to communicate all of the things we may be feeling, but do not necessarily say to the people who are important to us.

When I think back on all of the Thanksgiving traditions we have celebrated in our family, by far the one that still holds strong, and that I look forward to, is our round robin celebration.  This is where we all hold hands before we break bread and give thanks to our “Heavenly Father” and then we take turns expressing to one another how thankful we are for our family.

I am blessed with having a beautiful daughter, both my parent’s, and other family to share my Thanksgiving with.  I have learned throughout the years, with all my trials and tribulations, that saying “I Love You” or sharing my feelings with someone that I care deeply about, does not  have to take place only on a holiday however.  Life is too short for that.

On this particular Thanksgiving, I am grateful for the awakening of my mind, the stirring of my soul, and the opening of my heart – to witness and lovingly appreciate the gift of a beautiful sunrise, a gorgeous rainbow, a lovely smile, a warm hug, a contagious laugh, and a tender touch.

It is my wish for you this holiday, that you may know these gifts and share them with the people who have touched your life.

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!
