Hey friends, welcome to the Rhythms for Life podcast where each week we talk about four rhythms that help you reduce stress and anxiety and take charge of your emotional health.

Rest, restore, connect, create.

These ideas come from Rebecca's best-selling book,

Rhythms of Renewal, trading stress and anxiety

for a life of peace and purpose.

So grab your copy, invite your friends,

and let's live in rhythm.

Welcome back, I'm Rebecca and I'm Gabe.

Merry Christmas everyone. I know it's that time of year. It's awesome feeling festive. Yes we are. We put our Christmas tree up really early. We did. We did. We're just loving it right now. I know I am not burned out whatsoever. I could definitely go into January

You've been falling asleep on the couch in the living room a lot. I mean feel like you're feeling

the let down of a crazy year. I know everybody listening, same thing.

It's just been a heck of a year. So I think when we get to a point like this, it's a lot of gratefulness,

trying to spend time with our families, those we love, and trying to be joyful.

I know.

Cozy comfort is my theme for December.

I even got these barefoot dreams socks. It's like your foot is wearing a robe from a

good friend. She's just like this is her favorite thing and when I opened it my

head almost exploded I just didn't know it was possible. Yeah and like for a

couple days I couldn't find him and I was on the hunt like who took my socks

where are my socks they were just in the laundry room it was fine. Well as we head

into this holiday we we're excited.

We're taking some time off.
