This episode will help you to cope with being human this Christmas by understanding what's going on for you, and remembering love.
The holiday season can be tough, and when you add a pandemic into the mix, it gets even more challenging. In this episode of 'Underground Confidence Recovery', Shelley Treacher dives into the complexities of facing a Covid Christmas. Shelley, a BACP Accredited Somatic Psychotherapist, offers heartfelt advice to help you navigate feelings of loneliness, family conflicts, and the urge to comfort eat during this unique festive period.
Shelley starts by acknowledging that loneliness is a common experience, especially during these times. She normalizes these feelings and encourages listeners to understand what loneliness means for them personally. Are you missing the company of loved ones, or is it the festive cheer that feels out of reach? By identifying these nuances, you can better address your emotional needs. Family dynamics can also add stress to the holiday season.
Shelley suggests being proactive in understanding your family's behavior patterns and taking space for self-reflection. This approach can help you emotionally distance yourself from any negative influences and appreciate your own perspective. Comfort eating is another hurdle many face during the holidays. Shelley sheds light on why we turn to food for comfort and how to manage these urges. She recommends pausing to understand your emotions before reaching for that extra slice of pie.
Is it hunger, boredom, or something deeper? By being mindful of your eating habits, you can treat the underlying cause rather than just the symptom. Shelley's message is one of hope and self-compassion. She reminds listeners to focus on moments of love and personal growth rather than getting bogged down by negative thoughts. With her practical tips and empathetic guidance, you'll find ways to navigate this Covid Christmas with resilience and grace.
So, if you're feeling overwhelmed by the holiday season's challenges, take a moment to listen to this episode. Let Shelley's wisdom guide you towards a more peaceful and fulfilling festive period.
