December really is a beautiful month — full of warmth, nostalgia, connection, and a sense of magic we don’t get any other time of year. It invites us to slow down and savor… while also somehow adding a hundred more things to the calendar. With all that beauty often comes a bit of chaos too, and it’s easy to feel stretched, tired, or pulled out of your rhythm.
This year, instead of trying to force yourself to “stay on track,” what if you shifted into something more supportive… and let December work for you?
Movement That Grounds You
Movement is one of the simplest ways to create steadiness during a busy month. And it doesn’t have to be high intensity to count. Even a slow, easy 20-minute treadmill walk can help you regulate, breathe deeper, release tension, and reconnect to yourself.
Some days you’ll feel ready for a class or a lift. Other days, simply showing up, moving gently, and leaving with more calm than you arrived with is more than enough. Movement is your anchor — not your obligation.
Nourishment That Feels Supportive
Food is a huge part of December — the traditions, the celebrations, the treats — and it’s meant to be enjoyed. Still, it’s totally normal to feel out of rhythm or disconnected from your hunger and energy cues this time of year. Nourishing yourself is less about “being good” and more about helping your body feel stable, supported, and grounded.
To make that easier, we created the 7-Day Holiday Reset Meal Plan — a light, simple, flexible guide you can follow anytime you want to feel refreshed. It includes an easy grocery list, supportive recipes, and an interactive version that adjusts serving sizes for you. It’s available December 1–10, and once you have it, you can return to it anytime you need a gentle reset.
Let December Work With You
December doesn’t have to be something you survive. It can be something you move with — letting it be both joyful and balanced. Instead of perfection, aim for rhythm. Instead of pressure, aim for presence. December gives you so many ways to support yourself:
- Move in ways that feel good
- Let joy and nourishment coexist
- Embrace the special foods without guilt
- Create tiny rituals that bring you back to center
- Give yourself permission to rest when you need it
- Hold kindness for yourself as your energy ebbs and flows
When you approach the month with softness and intention, something shifts — it becomes easier, calmer, and surprisingly energizing.
