The Both And of Wholehearted Celebration- Navigating Grief and Loss During the Holidays
I have a question: How do you feel about the holiday season? Do you feel some dread? Overwhelm or anxiousness? Maybe you feel anxious over the pressure to be happy and joyous as the Christmastide and well-wishes begin. Now, I also am curious to know how you feel about celebration.Do you wait to practice celebration as a reward or a reaction to good news? Do you start to cringe when you hear the platitude, “have an attitude of gratitude?”So let’s dive into something called Dichotomy, which I shared more about during the Simply Wholehearted Summit this fall and received lots of wonderful feedback saying it was so helpful to viewers. Remember, emotions are guideposts that can teach us about ourselves and are a gift from the Lord to help us heal. Jesus himself, we see in scripture, experienced a wide range of emotions, and he never sinned! So those big emotions you feel right now heading into the holidays? There is nothing wrong with you for feeling that way. It’s normal. It’s okay.
