Greatest Gift of the Season

By Bohemian Babushka

HolaHolaHola Beautifuls! It’s Diciembre. We’re now in the holiday hustle. Present list to write and buy, menus to make with comidas to cook, people to visit, 1000 cosas to do.  Pero first, the most importante thing- have you asked Santi Clo for your regalo? What are you hoping for from los Reyes? You’re never too old for making a list. And you’re never too old for putting yourself on the top of that list.

Before the Crisma CorreCorre gets more frantic, do algo with BB Beautifuls.

Sientate, Sit. STILL.Hands Down, Arms on your Sides. Ahora, a DEEP, SLOW, BREATH, Hold for 3, Exhale for 3. Next, and this is the most importante, lift both arms al cielo, boca and eyes as open as possible, do a happy jiggle, and BIGGEST SELF HUG YOU CAN!!!  A quick apreton, then a slow one, appreciate YOU. It’s the end of the year Beautifuls, and you’ve made it. Selfhugging make you feel silly? Saben que? LIFE is SILLY. Si, porque no matter how fast we run, it’s faster. No matter how frantic we get, it’s soon forgotten. No matter how furious we get, it fades. It will go on, and so will you. Esto is just a reminder to be gentler, kinder, observant of todo. And you are a very importante part of that TODO. Nunca, Never doubt or forget that. 

So, take that Deep Breath, Give YOURSELF a Giant ABRAZOTE, and get your holidays hopping. Just don’t forget the most importante regalo during the dance. Remember your best dance partner, and let it lead- Selflove y Amor Propio.

Here’s wishing you a Beautiful Baile.  Babushka Besos a Todos.

In this black and white photo, a pregnant person with long hair sits gracefully on a bed. Gently touching their belly, possibly pondering gestational diabetes, they wear minimal clothing and a watch. One arm rests over their chest in the softly lit room.
