Staying Healthy During the Holidays by Michelle Chua

Ever feel anxiety about the holidays and the inevitable Thanksgiving feast food coma, cold weather sluggishness and or even slight depression? 

For decades, I subscribed to my limiting belief that holiday binge-eating and winter colds and flus were a staple part of the holiday season.  I gave into eating all my Halloween candy and welcoming the seasonal viruses with poor diet, guilt-driven sporadic exercise as punishment and being down on myself, all under the excuse that I lacked self-control. 

But I grew tired of this hamster wheel and being seasonally sick, and decided to change--one small thing at a time. 

A gift of becoming a yoga teacher over ten years ago was feeling inspired to make the kinds of choices I wanted to help others to see they had, because I wanted to lead by example (as I was always taught, being the oldest of 5 siblings).  Choice is powerful, and we exercise it constantly through action or nonaction.  And by being consistent in these choices, I gained my trust in myself.  And by gaining self-trust, I knew I was stronger than my habits.  Anyone can create new habits that better serve how they want to feel and be.
