It might feel difficult to tap into holiday cheer this year. Many people feel this way in 2020. In fact, many people feel stressed by the holiday season every year. Practicing mindfulness can reduce the stress we feel during the holidays—even during a pandemic. 

In a time when much of life feels beyond our control, managing emotions through mindfulness may offer the key to finding calm during the storm. Learn how we can learn to witness our emotions rather than become captive to them.

Creating mandalas can help well-being and reduce anxiety. Mandalas have represented everything from balance and order to religious beliefs and the impermanence of life.
