Rest is rebellion
Hey brilliant being,
Are you taking time off for Thanksgiving?
I’m proud of myself for taking a full week off this Thanksgiving. ✨
This is the first time I’m doing so in my business.
I’ve realized no one really wants to work during the holidays (myself included), and honestly? I’m tired of those last-minute client cancellations the week of Thanksgiving. This year, I’m choosing rest over hustle as a form of restorative rebellion.
I’m focusing on restorative rest to recover from some burnout. Here are some things I’m looking forward to doing:
FINALLY finishing a painting I started back in January
Making moss thrones out of antique Victorian velvet chairs (our wedding fern thrones got infected with mold…)
Escaping reality with the latest Kirby Air Riders video game
And while I’ve been resting and recharging, I wanted to make something special to help you do the same. So, I put together 3 free gifts to help you survive (and maybe even enjoy) the holidays with more laughter, mindfulness, and compassionate boundaries.
🎁 Your Three Free Gifts 🎁
💖1. Discover Your Boundaries to Protect Your Peace — explore six types of boundaries for deep peace.
🪷 2. How to Set Boundaries with Family Members — scripts and guidance for when “no” feels hard to say.
💖 3. Holiday Drama Bingo Game - put the fun in dysfunction with this mindful game and self-protection skills
🌟 Bonus Tip: Get a Bingo Buddy
Invite a friend or significant other to play along! Forward this email to them as a gift.
Body doubling + humor = nervous system regulation.
Remember, you’re allowed to protect your peace this holiday season.
Stay golden, brilliant being,
💖 Dr. Liz Slonena
