The holidays promise joy but often deliver an exhausting list of demands: the perfect gathering, the right gift, everyone getting along. This workshop explores why our expectations create so much of our stress, and how loosening our grip on how things 'should' go — including our own performance — opens the door to ease. Using down-to-earth meditation and practical advice, learn to meet family gatherings, gift-giving, and holiday chaos with a calmer, more spacious mind. All welcome.
