Happy Holidays from Calm!

The holidays can be a special time for celebrating traditions with our family and friends, but they can also bring up difficult emotions, especially for those of us who are managing feelings of burnout, grief, or anxiety. As we wrap up a busy, challenging year, let’s set aside some time to care for our mental health by practicing a powerful mindfulness exercise: Self-compassion. These resources from our partner Calm will help us get started:

• Learn about Radical Self-Compassion in this masterclass by a world-renowned meditation teacher, Tara Brach
• Use Calm’s Mindful Holidays journal to reflect on your mental health needs this season
• Strengthen your self-compassionate mindset with the 7 Days of Self Esteem meditation series
