Thriving Through the Holidays
The holiday season can be a time of joy, celebration, and light. It can also be a time of stress, especially when differences and divisions abound amongst family members, friends, neighbors and colleagues. Given this, how can we not just survive, but thrive through the holidays? Building on last month’s topic, the secret is remaining in a heart-centered space.
When truths are shared and 3D paradigms crumble more visibly, people who are unaware will go through a myriad of emotions that may include depression, sorrow, grief, disbelief, and/or anger. Instead of becoming triggered, defensive, and responding with an “I-told-you-so,” if we remain in a heart-centered space, we will be positioned to help.
How to help depends on the level of awareness and emotional state of the individual you wish to assist. At times, people need information, data, and a deep conversation about the truth. Other people may only be ready for a seed of truth, that will sow fully when their soul is ready, and yet others may simply need kindness and compassion.
Establishing personal boundaries is important. Consider what you may be willing to overlook and at what point you need to gently stand in your truth in a heart-centered way. Being mindful of your boundaries and respecting the boundaries of others will allow you to stay true to yourself while avoiding defensive behaviors.
Remember that you can contribute significantly by going within. When we remain heart-centered and share our love and light with everyone—regardless of our differences—we raise our vibration. Our raised vibrations contribute to the whole, support our collective evolution, and allow us to be the change we want to see in the world.
