If you aren’t exactly thrilled with the possibility of your Holiday season matching the Griswald celebration, this episode of Unjaded is for you.

The holiday season is beautiful and it’s ugly. We set ourselves up with these fancy expectations, running ourselves ragged for the perfect gifts, everyone’s favourite foods, and a wrap up of business activities that would make Richard Branson proud. I mean you’ve got BF – Cyber Monday – and all of the last minute sales strategies to close out the year strong. By the time Christmas actually arrives, we’re fed up, worn out, and over it already.

Today we’re going to talk about a couple of areas of your Human Design and how leaning into your strengths could make the holiday season easier – dare I say, even enjoyable???

What You’ll Learn:

How your unique Human Design will support you with boundaries and expectations, emotional energy, stress and overwhelm.

• Looking to the Emotional Solar Plexus (or ‘ESP’) and Root Centres to help you navigate the holiday season.
• For the ESP Centre: identifying whether this is defined or undefined for you.
  • Those that are undefined are highly empathetic and navigating the holidays will involve soaking up and amplifying the emotions of others. How to allow the emotions of others to flow through you and identify what is yours – and what is not.
  • Those that are defined are designed to be emotional. Chances are, you’ve been conditioned not to be. Breaking through this conditioning, allowing yourself to feel the feelings and knowing that they will come in waves.
• For the Root Centre: identifying whether this is defined or undefined for you.
  • Those that are undefined will feel a lot of pressure, especially during the holidays. How to ground yourself to avoid the overwhelm and give yourself space.
  • Those that are defined have a more consistent way to manage stress (even if not currently USING it). Physical movement is very important to your design.

So I know this is a lot. And it can seem like a fantasy to actually honour your design – especially over the holidays. A coach once told me that living your design is not always convenient but it’s always correct. She was right.

I do hope that you’re able to honour at least one thing in this episode as the holidays approach. Where can you cut yourself some slack, according to how you’re designed to live? Do that, ok?

In the Next Episode:

Boy oh boy do I have something extra special for you! Join me, Vickie Dickson, next week for an episode all about NUANCES. This is truly my passion in Human Design. I’m going to invite you to discover how the nuances in your own Human Design are where the real juice of it all lives, because you are so much more than ‘just’ your Human Design type.

AND THEN I’ll be releasing a bonus 12-part mini series for the 12 Days of Christmas that is all about nuances! Take a peek inside the charts of those dearest to me as we share how 12 people, with similar profile types, are SO VERY DIFFERENT – all because of the nuances. I’m serious, if you put all 12 of us in a room, anyone that knows us even slightly would NEVER assume we are the same. Spoiler alert – thanks to our NUANCES, we aren’t!  Ok ok, that’s enough until next week. See you then.

Life is gonna kick you around. Stay Unjaded! ✌️
