About now in December I usually start to feel worn out, my nose gets stuffy and I have no motivation left.

To combat that this year, I made a few changes:

• Have a little pampering time every day – one day I massaged my feet, another was a piece of Lindt chocolate, and I bought a new peppermint chocolate lip balm yesterday
• Take at least 5 minutes every day to just breathe
• Get enough sleep
• Make conscious choices about what I want to get done and let some items go
• Be in the moment more often – really see the lights, play lovely music, connect while wrapping gifts or baking

What are ways you keep up the energy in December?
