Happy Holidays!

One of the promises I made to myself when I started Holos was I would take vacation. I mean real vacation. Not the kind people pretend to take. Not the kind where I check email multiple times a day, take the occasional call, or use the time to catch up on work. In the spirit of this promise, I am not publishing an article this week (although I have posted the recipe for my gluten free Christmas coffee cake here). Time is precious and you don’t get it back.

Instead, I will be skiing for the first time in 3 years (thanks to knee and ankle surgeries) and working my way through the stack of books by my bed. I'm starting with Hamnet, then Klara and the Sun, and hoping to get to Innercise. I will be doing last minute shopping, wrapping presents, cooking, decorating, and spending time with friends and family. My goal for the next 2 weeks is to be as present as possible.

I hope you have a magical, fun, and restorative holiday season. I hope you have time with family and friends. And I hope you take a moment to pause and reflect on all the love in your life.

Happy Holidays!

See you next week…
