Talking About the Holidays


by Greg and Priscilla Hunt
 

Here are a few conversation starters for you and your partner to explore how you can truly have happy holidays – together.
 

Begin with your own self awareness. Get in touch with your thoughts, feelings and desires. Write them down. After self-reflection, share your perceptions with your partner (see #3 below). Keep this list handy and refer to it often during the holidays. Enjoy a stress-free holiday season that will keep you close to the person(s) you love the most.
 
 

1. List the things that would make this a positive holiday experience for you.
 

2. List the things that would make it harder for you to enjoy the holidays.
 

3. Take turns sharing with each other your answers to #1 and #2.
 

4. List the things you’re personally willing to do to make this a positive holiday experience.
