Dear Friends,

The most wonderful time of the year has finally arrived! In my home country, nature has already prepared us for the Christmas period by covering trees and ground with a blanket of snow as far as the eye can see. It signals us to start enjoying our well-deserved rest!

I encourage you to take time to be with people you care for and recharge batteries during December. Turn your festivities into meaningful, memorable events and, in this way, stretch the holiday spirit into infinity. Use this time to enjoy good food, music, and late-night conversations with your loved ones, if they are the ones who boost you with energy. Or find opportunities to walk in nature, read interesting books, or watch worthwhile films if this happens to regain your power and strength instead. Try to find a balance between all these activities, so that you wouldn’t run out of energy during holidays but derive strength and make memories to cherish forever.


I wish that you would be able to take some time off at the end of the year in order to move mountains again in the new one.


Merry Christmas to all of you and a wonderful end to the Year 2022!

Kallistades,

Gerly
