I have mentioned the practice of mindfulness before, but did you realize how helpful mindfulness can be during the holiday season? I shared this article back in 2019, but dusted it off and thought I would reshare as an important reminder. In an effort to slow down and enjoy all that the season has to offer, Illinois Extension County Director Karla Belzer encourages us all to be more mindful this holiday season. To linger in the moment longer. To be present while wrapping presents. To be aware of each moment. To put the stress of the holiday season aside to truly enjoy the gifts the season brings. To be more mindful.
