Tips from the Tree Top #17

Take care of yourself during family gatherings. They can be emotionally rough. Sometimes these get-togethers do not feel good because of negative patterns that are deeply imbedded in the family system. Keep your perspective. Set the emotional distance you need when troublesome behaviors occur. Detach yourself from old unhealthy behaviors.

    1. True. So many shows and advertisements keep us attuned to the miracles we can face in family dynamics during Christmas.
