Season’s greetings!
In the same spirit as my Fall Checklist, I also have a Winter Checklist. Although, instead of thinking about these lists as something to check off in the same way I would a grocery list, I should probably start thinking about these as traditions. For me, the winter season is a time of the year where mindfulness should be a part of everything I do. As such, mindfully I have put together a list of traditions I like to uphold each Winter.

Most of these items are holiday related, but not all of them are which is important since winter doesn’t end when the holidays do. Even though it’s not my favorite season, there is plenty of joy to be found in winter outside of the holidays and it’s something I think a lot of people need to be reminded of from time to time.
On that note, there are clearly some unchecked boxes on my list here. So it’s refreshing to remind myself that these traditions are part of the whole season and don’t need to be rushed through before the holidays. Overall, I’m glad that I was able to take part in most of these traditions.
Stay warm everyone,
Carley
