Twas the night before holidays and all through the house, not a worry was stirring, not even a doubt.

00:00:06.653 --> 00:00:14.054
The journals were nestled by bedside with care, in hopes that tranquility soon would be there.

00:00:14.054 --> 00:00:22.565
The candles were glowing their scents in the air, with lavender whispers and eucalyptus flair Wrapped in a blanket.

00:00:22.565 --> 00:00:41.194
So cozy a morn, I settled in peace, preparing for the storm, with affirmations, read and gratitude, shared visions of abundant stance, totally declared Meditation whispered a soft lullaby guiding my spirit to soar and to fly.

00:00:41.194 --> 00:00:47.021
When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter, I sprang from my seat to see what was the matter.

00:00:47.021 --> 00:00:57.689
Through the window I peered with curious eyes and saw the stress of holidays in disguise, with a guide full of wisdom, so lively and bright.

00:00:57.689 --> 00:01:00.573
I knew in a moment it must be in sight.

00:01:00.573 --> 00:01:04.105
More rapid than eagles, her messages came.

00:01:04.105 --> 00:01:08.534
She whistled and shouted and called them by name.

00:01:08.534 --> 00:01:20.004
Now balance, now peace, now self-care and light On positivity, on purpose, on calm through the night, to the top of your goals, to the depth of your soul.

00:01:20.004 --> 00:01:24.028
Now, nurture your spirit, make your life whole.

00:01:24.689 --> 00:01:31.725
As the whispers of mindfulness danced on the breeze, the essence of self-care put my heart at ease.

00:01:31.725 --> 00:01:38.266
So back to my haven, I turned with delight, with a heart full of joy on this pre-holiday night.

00:01:38.266 --> 00:01:45.647
And then, in a twinkling, I heard from within the whispers of abundance, a soft, gentle hymn.

00:01:45.647 --> 00:01:56.635
As I drew in my thoughts and was turning around, a feeling of peace settled profound, dressed in calmness from head to my feet.

00:01:57.260 --> 00:02:04.730
My journey of wellness felt wonderfully sweet, a bundle of insight I held close and tight.

00:02:04.730 --> 00:02:09.075
My spirit was glowing, my heart felt light.

00:02:09.075 --> 00:02:17.174
The twinkle in my eye and a smile on my face reflected the journey, the self-care, embrace.

00:02:17.174 --> 00:02:28.364
With a nod of assurance, I dove into dreams where wellness and wealth flowed in endless streams, to dreams where wellness and wealth flowed in endless streams.

00:02:28.364 --> 00:02:40.391
I spoke not a word, but went straight to my quest and filled my heart with what served me the best and, laying my head down as dreams took their flight, I whispered to the stars holidays, good night.

00:02:40.391 --> 00:02:44.525
So here's to the night before holidays cheer.

00:02:44.525 --> 00:02:47.762
May your life be abundant, your stress disappear.

00:02:47.762 --> 00:02:51.550
As you drift into dreams, let gratitude sway.

00:02:51.550 --> 00:02:56.400
Happy self-care to all and a calm holiday.
