Did you think things would calm down once we got through the pandemic, and we would all be enjoying life again?
Are you finding yourself thinking that celebrating Christmas feels shallow with all of the significant challenges people are facing in the world (war, climate change, financial crisis, etc.)?
Do you find yourself feeling overwhelmed just thinking about Christmas?
Are you tired of all the expectations? Do you sometimes resent all the work you do?
Do you feel a void on December 26th, like all the work and effort didn’t bring you the desired feelings of goodwill?

I have something to help you!

It is possible to have a Christmas filled with genuine joy and meaning.

I’ve been feeling all the feelings lately as well. I decided I needed something to support me during this season.

So, I’ve created The Advent of Christmas, a four-week self-paced course where I will guide you on a journey to create a calm and meaningful Christmas.

Before you even start the course, I want to share an important idea with you.

Your experience during the holidays is an inside job. You will feel calmer when you start from the centre and work your way out. You don’t have to change anything (although you might.)

The Holiday Rescue Starts Here.

This Christmas, say goodbye to the overwhelm. The Advent of Christmas is designed to help you find peace and serenity amid the holiday chaos.

Discover or rediscover the meaning of Christmas through the lens of an ancient tradition reimagined for anyone wanting to move beyond the materialism of the holidays into a more spiritual experience. You don’t have to adhere to any specific belief system to find this practice helpful.

Focus on what matters most this Christmas

Week One: Hope

On a global level we are dealing with wars, climate change, financial instability and political unrest. In our personal lives we have our own struggles.
Learn how to find hope in stressful times.
Week Two: Peace

Feeling anxious? Is it possible to find peace in the midst of all the pressure to create a perfect Christmas?
I like a Christmas movie as much as anyone else but chances are your holidays won’t be quite as perfect but you can still find peace.
Week Three: Joy

This week we are going to look at the source of Joy in our lives.
Is it possible to feel joy in the midst of sadness and pain? Focus on what brings you joy and see what happens.
Week Four: Love

In this last week, you’ll spend some time thinking about love.
Love is what motivates so many of us to over extend at this time of year. Take some time to reflect on this virtue and driving force in your life.

“If you want things to be different this Christmas,

you need to do something different.”

Includes:

🌲 A Zoom call to kick things off and help you get the most out of the four lessons. This call will be recorded and available if you can’t make the call. The call will be on December 2, 2023, at 12:00 NOON ET.

🌲 Four weekly emails will be delivered each Saturday in December. This self-directed format allows you to complete the course each week at your own convenience.

🌲 Each email will include ideas to create a weekly ritual to support the week's virtue. (If you follow me, you won’t be surprised to know that rituals will be a part of this course!)

🌲 Activities to help you integrate the learning practically into your Christmas experience.

🌲 Additional resources if you desire to go deeper into the topic.
