Embracing Hope, Wellness, and Joyful CelebrationsHappy holidays, Healthi family! Coach Jeri here. Many of us are haunted by memories of past holidays when health and wellness weren't a priority. As we anticipate the holiday table, embrace the anticipation without anxiety. This year, gift yourself the present of hope. I've created a list of invaluable steps to take this holiday season to ensure you get the most out of your celebrations.

Steps to success this Holiday season:

Reminders for this holiday season:

Before the holiday dinner, sit down and articulate your expectations. Will you be content with maintaining your weight, accepting a small gain, or committing to better choices? Explore options like bringing a safe dish or lightening up a traditional favorite. Enjoy the festivities without overeating and self-doubt. Believe that hope and faith in yourself can make a significant difference. Shift your mindset from "can't" to celebrating success in enjoying your favorite dish within set boundaries. Most importantly, revel in the gift of hope you've given yourself. A meal or a dish does not define you or your wellness journey. Reevaluate your feelings about holiday foods and gatherings, and let your positive attitude and hope guide the new you. Ask yourself meaningful questions and dive deep into your thoughts to stay on the right path, remembering that eating to live, not living to eat, and keeping hope alive in every aspect of your life will lead to a fulfilling journey. Happy Holidays!
