Creating calm in the darker months

Shann Vander Leek & Ananga Sivyer
About this episode

This week we’re reflecting on what you can do to create more peace and calm during the winter time. In the northern hemisphere, December can be dark and busy and we often receive questions from our listeners about how to support their mind through the darker months.

 

This show is sponsored by BetterHelp.    For most of you, the holiday season is a time for enjoying family and friends, gift giving and enjoying special treats. Whether or not your family gives gifts during the holidays, you get to choose what you give to yourself. Whether it’s by starting therapy or treating yourself to a day of complete rest– remember to give yourself some love this holiday season.    Therapy is helpful for how to set boundaries and look after yourself. It empowers you to be the best version of yourself. If you’re thinking of starting therapy, give BetterHelp a try.     In the season of giving, give yourself what YOU need – with BetterHelp.
