As that now famous commercial jingle goes, The Holidays Are Coming . . . The Holidays are coming . . . this seems an ideal time for using some EFT to really prepare ourselves, body, mind and soul for the coming weeks.

How ready and prepared are you so as to ensure the best holiday season ever? As far as I am concerned, no matter how festive the decorations around, I usually go for a slow build up. As well, as my birthday is on December 14th, in my family, the tree always went up on my birthday; this of course always coincided with my birthday party!! So you can imagine as I inch towards the 14th, I am only just beginning to get into the holiday spirit.

Working with The Law of Attraction, I have however taken a moment to sit still and write down exactly what my hopes are for the holidays and here are some I came up with for this year : -

• A beautifully decorated house with a pretty tree, white candles & fresh green decorations all over and a jolly and attractive wreath on the front door
• All my family, who are able to make it home to share this special time
• A roaring log fire for us is an absolute must, as we have become addicted to that special smell of burning wood and fresh pine leaves (last year we even roasted a leg of lamb in front the fire – much to the delight of the dog who sat guarding it all night!)
• Lovely long walks across the national park that boarders onto the house we rent in Provence with the invigorating and delicious aromas of rosemary and thyme that are released with each and every footstep
• The definite chance of beautiful days with bright clear blue skies and deliciously warm Provencal days – an absolute bonus as we can sit outside or play Boules!
• And I guess because we are a conjoined family of total foodies, the table is usually decked with loads of wonderful food & drink, all specially selected and brought back from the fabulous Provencal markets, and of course Mr Leclerc (the big chain supermarket down there)
• However most of all this year we are all looking forward to being with my grandson who is now 21 months old – he was with us last year (9 months) and we had a great time, however he is so much more interactive now, so I look forward, with some dread too, at the thought of him living peacefully with the fully decked Christmas tree and other decorations, as well as the open fire with screen of course. We will be keeping a constant eye on him, however what fun we are all going to have with him on his first proper Christmas with us

So as I set my own personal intentions I guess it is time to tap in all the positive feelings I have to do with Christmas – personally I love it! However I am aware that there are many of you who experience Christmas as being a particularly sad and lonely time; as well, one of total anti-climax and disappointment.  So tapping on these feelings way up ahead is sure to be of use . . . we all know how far-reaching EFT can be, yet we are all guilty of not using it for moments like this when it can mean the difference between a not so good Christmas and a good one. So do not forget to tap . . .

However I urge you to put some intentions down on paper, as this should help in the first place – even if at this stage we can only put down what we definitely do not want to happen at Christmas! That way we can move forward to seeing what we might want, and what might please us most - as well, how to set about achieving those plans.

Look out for more posts on the lead up to the Holidays . . . however in the meantime
