It’s easy to get swept away in December – whether it’s a hectic swirl of activity and preparations for the holidays, or perhaps the converse is true, with the dark and long nights, we might experience feelings of loneliness, or overwhelm.

Our December mindfulness calendar offers a supportive prompt each day, inviting us to connect with what’s actually here, in this moment. Through the senses we can become present in the moment and open our awareness to the wonders of the world around us. The greatest gift at this time of year? is the actual present moment – and we get to open it all to ourselves! CLICK THROUGH FOR CALENDAR DOWNLOAD https://lnkd.in/eT2NTyDf We hope you find some support in the calendar this month, and we wish you a peaceful and joyful month.

Many still often use the excuse of lack of time to not engage in activities that would nourish our hearts, minds, and spirits and help us relax physically. But if you can't find the time to meditate or engage in other mindfulness practices, make your life and the activities you engage in every day a meditation practice. One of them is eating. Slow yourself down to enjoy your meals. That helps your digestion and also boosts bowel movements. Anything we engage with in life, if done with mindfulness and awareness, can be transformative. When you slow down, you can actually taste your food and build the intuitive library because your body remembers. Pausing to chew your food properly might also bring more awareness about some of the food choices you have been making. Everything we do in life is connected and holistic. When we nourish one area of our lives, it ripples out to create change in others too. Your day is filled with opportunities to live a more mindful and connected life. It’s the simple daily practices and activities that we engage with every day that sometimes can create the biggest difference.

Sharing beautiful reflection on mindfulness and gratitude in daily life. On even the most ordinary days, moments of Awareness can transform how we see the world. The frost, with its intricate patterns and quiet elegance, serves as a reminder that beauty exists all around us, even in fleeting, overlooked details. Pausing to truly observe these moments—whether it’s frost on a windowpane or the play of light in a room—not only grounds us in the present but also nurtures a sense of gratitude. It’s in these still, deliberate moments that we find space to breathe, reflect, and appreciate life for its simple, profound gifts. In a moment of true presence, you might find peace and clarity in small acts of noticing. They encourage a practice of presence that can transform the mundane into something meaningful. being Awareness is one of the keys to self empowerment. If you zoom into the picture, you'll see even more beauty, albeit the picture is not "picture perfect"!

Here in the now … Living in the here and now and seeing life as a gift is important because it allows us to fully embrace the potential of the present moment. When we focus on the present, we become more open to the beauty and opportunities that life offers. We appreciate the small joys and experiences that are often overlooked in the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Seeing life as a gift helps us develop gratitude. This attitude fosters positive emotions and enhances our well-being. Gratitude shifts our focus away from what we lack to what we have, making us feel richer and more content. Moreover, living in the here and now promotes mindfulness. Mindfulness helps us manage stress by focusing on the moment instead of worrying about the past or fearing the future. This practice allows us to make conscious decisions and act authentically. Ultimately, the awareness that life is a gift reminds us of how precious and fleeting our time is. It encourages us to live our lives with joy, compassion, and purpose. By embracing life as a gift, we honor the uniqueness of each moment and find fulfillment in the simplicity of being.
