Bridging the Gap: Embracing Twixtmas
In this episode, hosts Jemima and Emma discuss the notion of 'Twixtmas', the period between Christmas and New Year. They address the feelings of anticipation, disappointment, joy, and sometimes grief, that this period can often hold as the year comes to an end. They emphasize the importance of acknowledging all these emotions and learning to navigate through them. They suggest using Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), also known as tapping, to help manage these feelings. By the end of the episode, they encourage listeners to enjoy their present situation fully, take breaks, slow down and remember that they are not their emotions.
