Slow Living Encore Series: Slowing Down for the Holidays

Slow Living Podcast with Host Stephanie O'Dea Episode 61 - Slowing Down for the Holidays see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotesThis is a difficult time of the year to ‘get it all done’ —even for the most grounded and centered and zen-ish person out there. Sometimes the pressure to make everything memorable and perfect and create a photo-finish is enough to make us crack. or enough to cause our back to go out. Here I am, not able to move, a week after Thanksgiving. I knew better, but I did way too much for way too many and neglected my own wants and wishes. I know that if I stick to my sleep schedule, get up and meditate and journal before everyone else gets up, I feel calm, centered, and “in control.” BUT. this past week at work was wonky — I had many teachers out sick (I’m a school secretary) so I was scrambling to find subs, we had our own crazy schedule at home with soccer and shuttling kids back to college and then back home again because of the UC strike — and I went too fast. I KNEW I was going too fast. and then, all of a sudden, my back went out. SO, take a listen, and do better than I did. 😉I hope you enjoy this episode — and AS ALWAYS — if you have any questions or comments, shoot me an email or tag me @stephanieodea on Instagram or Facebook or record a voicemail question.Overview I love helping listeners embark upon their own journey to Slow Down, and live the life they’ve always dreamt about: one filled with peace, purpose, and abundance.I understand how you’re feeling when you are rushing around trying to do “all the things,” always playing catch up and finding time to get things done.I know because I’m a mom too.It’s okay to stop and breathe. My philosophy isn’t about cramming more and more into an already over-packed schedule, instead I offer realistic tips and plans to get things done quickly and efficiently so you can do things you want to do.Show Links Simple Shortcuts to Peace - https://stephanieodea.com/peaceNew You - https://stephanieodea.com/newyouMasterclass - https://stephanieodea.com/masterclass/Simple Shortcuts to Peace - https://stephanieodea.com/peace/Website - https://stephanieodea.comBlog - https://stephanieodea.com/blog/Podcast Page - https://stephanieodea.com/podcastSpeaking Opportunities - https://stephanieodea.com/speaking/Coaching Opportunities - https://stephanieodea.com/coaching/Courses -
