It is no secret that the holiday season is stressful on a good year, with the additional uncertainty that 2020 has piled on this holiday season you may feel more stress in body & mind.
Reset Zone is proud to present six weeks of Holiday Wellness including tools for relieving holiday stressors, messages of hope from our experts and wellness gift suggestions.
We are wishing you a healthy and safe holiday season.
“Joy” and “Good Cheer” are words that are commonly associated with the holiday season. But adverse life circumstances can rob us of the ability to feel the joy and cheer, leaving us feeling sad.
Sadness is a natural human reaction after experiencing a loss or something unpleasant. It can manifest in emotional heartache, physical pain and/or dispelled energy.
Mindful Soothing Touch is a tool I want to share with you, using the sense of touch and sound as you gently and kindly stroke your hands, consoling yourself to feel better.
Mindful Soothing Touch
- Position yourself sitting or lying down, grounded in the present moment.
- Focus ond paying attention to your hands. Let go of any thoughts that may creep in.
- Cross one hand over the other making an “X”shape, the upper hand by the lower wrist
- Gently, slowly stroke the upper hand across the lower hand.
- Repeat the stroking motion. Alternate hands if you wish.
- Pay close attention and observe how it feels….smooth or rough….wet or dry… pleasant or unpleasant or neither pleasant or unpleasant
- Bring your ear close to your hands and pay attention to the subtle, calming sound.
Use this exercise anytime you feel sad during the holiday season.
