#45: Avoiding Holiday Stress

Season 1 · Episode 45

lundi 29 novembre 2021 • Duration 08:32

For some people - December can be so exciting. You get to decorate or celebrate your family’s traditions.
For others, IT IS STRESSFUL. You’re already adding onto a pretty full plate.

Maybe you're "almost" unschooling or unschooling some subjects but not others.
What if you try Unschooling for December only as an experiment?

Taking a month to unschool - leaning in toward your children - will be such a great thing.
On so many levels. You have your kids home with you because you want a better life together. Sometimes we have to reframe some of that old thinking that creeps in.

This podcast will give you some action steps to help you. And I have more resources specific to the holidays below.

Let me know if you try unschooling for December!
