Everyone experiences Christmas differently and knowing this keeps our balance, especially during challenging moments with family members who are hurting and not aware of the impact they have on themselves and others.
Acceptance eases our thoughts and feelings to enable us to respond calmly and forgive .. to minimise stress and continue to enjoy the season ? wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a happy healthy peaceful new year ?Laura Sunderland
