This workbook is designed to help you through the ups and downs of the holiday season as your confidante, coach and sounding board.
Whether you are feeling stressed out dealing with your in-laws or overwhelmed trying to find the money to buy gifts, you can turn to these journaling exercises (instead of the enticing tin of cookies someone brought into your office) to work through your emotions in a healthy and productive way.
The workbook is divided into seven chapters, each representing a different day with a specific theme and journaling exercise. Ideally, you will block off about an hour every day for a week before or during the holidays so you can write consistently and build momentum.
In the following chapters, you will address the triggers that cause you to be unhappy and overwhelmed during the holidays, you will work through your individual challenges and you will celebrate your own unique gifts that will help you during difficult times. The “Focusing on Your Gifts” sections will offer bonus tips, exercises or words of encouragement to keep you going.
