Breaking the rules at Christmas

The festive period is an intense time – whether you're having fun or feeling it's all too much: physically or emotionally. 

We commonly see clients struggle during this time of year: struggle with the exhaustion of caring and catering for others; struggle socially with all the parties and equally with loneliness; struggle with perfectionism; struggle to manage their own unhelpful food, exercise and lifestyle rules alongside all the festivities and so on.

Festive struggles

These struggles show up in a host of ways...

• Do you find yourself reverting to old, unhelpful thought patterns and behaviour when you return to your family home – no matter your age?
• Do you find the difference in food, rest and work over Christmas hard to sit with?
• Do you feel overwhelmed by the encouragement to “overindulge” and not follow through with your body’s needs?
• Do you feel panicky about the predictability or unpredictability of festive eating or alcohol consumption?
• Do you worry that festive eating is “chaotic” and you get hungry when others are not?
• Do you feel angry that you can't do your normal routine, or if you do then others get upset and/or comment?
• Do you tend to get poorly during the festive break?
• Do you over-exercise before or after the Christmas period as a way to compensate for some of the above?
• Do you diet in January and/or engage in diet culture-based social media?

Join us for an interactive webinar and let us support you in connecting with, articulating and honouring your true needs this Christmas time.

About the webinar

In this webinar, we will:

• Introduce the concept of 'rules', distinguishing between helpful and unhelpful rules.
• Explain how to spot unhelpful rules in your life.
• Support you to break your unhelpful rules by connecting to, articulating and honouring your true needs during the festive period.
• Consider breaking and moving beyond unhelpful rules in a healthy, safe and sustainable way for the long term.

Although we will be leading the webinar and introducing new concepts, there will be plenty of space for you to think about how this applies to you - your own rules, needs and lifestyle. We will also leave plenty of time for questions.
