While the holiday season is filled with celebrations, it can also bring a certain level of stress particularly around shopping for gifts. Who gets what and how much to spend? Budgets rarely survive the chaos. And what about you? How do you feel after weeks of shopping, whether online or in store? One solution that may brighten your holiday is to give a bit of your most precious commodity - time.
My favorite gift to myself during the holidays is a little time to reminisce with friends. The memories we seem to treasure most are of fun activities with loved ones: going dancing with friends, singing around the piano with family, or for me - hiking trails in the redwood forest (and breaking the rules to climb an off limit tree) with my boyfriend. The one commonality between them all is time; loved ones giving their time to share in an experience.
This year instead of buying a trinket, carve out some time to create a memory together. It could be as simple as sharing fond moments past over cups of hot cocoa, or learning to play a new game together. It could be trying a new experience or revisiting one that everyone already loves. These memories may become what they treasure most in years to come.
Wishing you and yours a holiday season filled with good times, and a Happy New Year!
P.S. Another way to give the gift of time is with a gift of health - an Essential BluWellness Gift Certificate. Gift a life-affirming colon hydrotherapy session, a rejuvenating raindrop massage, or both. We can put together a gift package sure to be enjoyed and remembered. Just call.
