17. Holidays can be a powerful opportunity of growth for us all

Episode 17.  Holidays 2.0Annnnnnnd we are back with our second episode on holidaying with your family, some of these things might even pop up if you are on holidays with your partner.We like to be able to bring things to the light, creating awareness of those age old patterns we often run when we find ourselves in certain situations. (mostly situations where we are stuck with our family members in close spaces for extended periods of time  ; ).Yes we love them, without a doubt.  That's not the issue.   The issue is that being in squished and squeezed spaces with our dear ones can often bring to light areas of growth for ourselves.We often spend the majority of the time blaming others for the experience we are having, but it's actually a really great opportunity to take a deeper look at ourselves.  Get a little bit vulnerable and speak up about how we are really feeling.On holidays it's possible for us to let go of the everyday stresses and routines but it's also possible to let go of the stressors we carry within our body.Once these are released, we can all sit back and relax and enjoy our time together connecting in.  YES! In this episode of Grab Your Keys and Go we highlight: Setting up the expectations before you go away on holidays, having an understanding about each person needs from the holiday, and what is the purpose of the holiday.Some of the crazy situations you might find yourselves in while away, real talk. It can get a little messy at times.Ideas to support you through those messy moments so you can enjoy the connection with the people you love.I heard once that the best part of the holiday is the anticipation about going on the holiday.  Let's change that, starting with great communication so we can set up a holiday that feels good for everyone.After all, the reason we Grab our Keys and Go is to do the things we love most, with the people we love most.Until next time....Nat and MelHead over to our Grab Your Keys and Go community for some juicy conversations around the topics of our podcastshttps://www.facebook.com/groups/1921054834941568Retreat websitehttps://www.soulpresenceretreats.com.au
