I am embarking on the most celebratory yet stressful time of the year. As of Nov. 15th, it will be 2 months of family, friends, food and celebrations. Thanksgiving sets the stage for the holiday season; Christmas is by far my favorite time of the year (minus the cold) and New Year’s is always festive. Sprinkle in work deadlines, academic obligations, a few birthdays (including mine on Jan. 7th), shopping expeditions, holiday office parties and friend gatherings, the joyous holiday season can quickly go from celebratory to overwhelming.

Therefore, my 62 Days of Reflection begins today.

The  Purpose: To ground me as I get annoyed, stressed, flustered and introverted. To remind myself how lucky I am to have this much activity in my life, re-center my thoughts and quell anxieties.

#62DaysofReflection will include daily posts ranging from gratitude to affirmations. Some may be one-lines and some may be essays.

Feel free to join this journey either thru your own blog or commenting on #62DaysofReflection posts.
