I don't know about you but around this time of December I begin to feel the inevitable crush of stress overtake my body. As I fret about the presents still un-bought and unwrapped; obsess over the cookies yet to be baked and wonder how in the world I am going to be able to fit in all the holiday visits on our list I feel like every mom does - STRESSED!!
That is why I have to make time for myself. We all should do this and make a practice of it. When we are rested, mentally and physically we are better able to handle all our responsibilities and obligations. So I grab my paper and tools and allow myself the time to "zone out". I find that creative centre of my mind and stay there for a few hours. It is there I am able to breathe, it is there I feel energized and inspired. It is there I am myself. I wish this feeling for everyone.
If you are feeling the stress this holiday season, please find or make that time to unwind, to breathe and be kind to yourself. If you are a fellow crafter or artist, take that time to create, I know I will!!!
