About this event

December can feel like a whirlwind. Between shopping, decorating, gatherings, and endless to-do lists, it’s easy to lose sight of what makes the holiday season special. The Festive Season Reset workshop invites you to slow down, reset, and make more room for joy, peace, and connection.

Instead of creating another traditional holiday checklist, you’ll make a list with no shopping and no chores . This list focuses entirely on you. What brings you joy and helps you feel peaceful? What traditions make the season meaningful? Are there things you can do to bring more lightness and intention into your December?

Through guided reflection, you’ll discover simple ways to create a holiday season that feels fulfilling rather than overwhelming. You’ll identify the moments, experiences, and practices that help you feel present and connected.

Then, take time to recharge. Practice guided meditations designed to encourage serenity and restore your energy. Explore gentle energy work that can help settle your nervous system and bring a greater sense of calm. Give yourself permission to step away from the holiday rush and focus on how you want to feel this season.

You’ll leave feeling refreshed, peaceful, and ready to approach December with a new perspective. Carry that sense of calm into your celebrations, traditions, and everyday moments.

After all, the Christmas tree lights shouldn’t be the only things sparkling this holiday season!
