Merry Christmas

 Now it is Christmas again. Christmas can be a health challenge in many ways, with overeating, social stress for some and loneliness for others. To have a good Christmas, here are some tips:

• Enjoy the Christmas food and try to make it as good as possible. Try replacing meat with vegetarian options and try to have regular meals instead of snacking. Much of the Christmas food can actually be healthy, at least if you make it with organic ingredients of good quality, e.g. rice porridge, gingerbread, figs, dates, kale, red cabbage etc

• Remember that Christmas is really about spirituality and not materialism.

• It is more important to be together than to have the most well-decorated and clinically clean home or the largest number of Christmas presents.

• Therefore, try to reduce stress and make sure you find time for yoga and meditation so that you are your balanced and loving self.

• Enjoy everything you have instead of fretting that something might not have turned out the way you planned.

• Slow down and feel the peace and light within and spread that light to everyone you meet - that's how we light a thousand Christmas candles


With a wish for a very Merry Christmas 🎄
