Since the beginning of time, or at least Roman History, the months around winter solstice have embodied the spirit of celebration. In Roman Culture it was Saturnalia, in Christianity is Christmas, in Jewish Culture is Channukah , for African-American culture is Kwanzaa and so on. The traditions and meanings vary from culture to culture but the soul of the celebration remains the same: to gift and give.To gift yourself and others, taking a much necessary moment to celebrate your traditions and to express your love.

To give back to the people who have been present and have given you moments to cherish.

This holiday season, gift and give back to others but most importantly to yourself.

As you’re rushing around trying to find the perfect gift and making sure everyone is happy, take some time to appreciate the most important person in your life: YOU.

Practice some self-care this holiday season, be kind to yourself and take a moment to appreciate the love for you. Get yourself a little something, find the perfect present for you and let that love that you spread into the world come back to you.
