Introducing... The Joyful Advent

It’s no secret that I’m a big fan of Christmas. I love the music, the parties, the excuse to buy special gifts for your loved ones. I get giddy at the sight of fairy lights, and putting my Christmas tree up is always one of the highlights of the year for me.

I love the magic that lingers in the air in December, but it’s true that this season can be pretty stressful too. The to do lists get longer, our diaries get fuller, and if we’re not careful, we can end up running head first into burnout.

And so this year, I wanted to put something together that would encourage us all to slow down a little and enjoy the festive period. Enter: The Joyful Advent!

What is The Joyful Advent?

So, what exactly is The Joyful Advent, I can hear you asking? Well, it’s a little project that I’ve put together to help us squeeze a little more joy out of the Christmas countdown. In short, there are 24 daily prompts, each designed to help you slow down, check in, and focus on the joy that December can bring.

There will be lists to make, actions to take and thoughts to ponder. And because December is a busy old month, all of the prompts will be easy and quick to complete.

How will it work?

When you sign up to The Joyful Advent, you’ll be added to an exclusive mailing list. In the 24 days leading up to Christmas, you’ll receive an email from me containing a prompt, task or question to ponder, all designed to help you invite in a little more joy. So whether you’re seeking a little more me time, want to be more present, or just wanting to experiment with some new tools and ideas, this project is for you.

Sounds good?

I’m so looking forward to getting started with The Joyful Advent and hope that lots of you will be able to join in - let’s make this December our most joyful one yet!
