November marks the beginning of the holiday season rush. We are on the cusp of a cacophony of holiday music, tables full of filling feasts, and an overflow of holiday advertising and family cards in our mailboxes. Carols, candles, consuming of all kinds are commonly associated with this time of the year. For some, the holidays symbolize a time of joy, community, food and fun, while for others it is a sharp reminder of what they have lost or a bitter acknowledgment of what they may have but do not want.
As we shift into gear, be mindful to recognize that we all carry different stories and experiences, all significant and meaningful. Practice being mindful of never assuming, staying curious, and trying to be open- hearted to yourself and those around you. Invite a lonely friend over for a friendsgiving feast. Wrap a gift and give it to a local charity. Make a contribution to a foundation that supports a cause you are passionate about. Make a commitment to your health by attending your favorite activity throughout this time of gluttony. Be gentle with yourself and the people around you. Attend to the positive and actively turn away from the negative. What do you need this Holiday Season? Check out this article to contemplate your holiday intentions. Wishing warmth and contentment to you!

Hello Intimate Inquirers,
Fall is in full swing as daylight savings shifted our schedules last week. The trees are more vulnerable in their leafless fashion, the temperatures are plummeting and the impending holiday fever is being blown in from the rockies. As autumn swallows the last of the summer season, other large shifts are underway. My Niwot Office for Intimate Inquiries will be out of commission for the month of November. For the next several weeks, I will be seeing clients at a satellite office in North Boulder. My new temporary address is 2475 Broadway Boulder, Colorado 80304. My schedule during this time of construction will be: Monday - Wednesday 2pm - 7pm Thursday 10am - 5pm. Contact me for directions, questions, and appointments. Your patience and flexibility is appreciated during this time of business evolution. Thank you for adjusting with this temporary inconvenience. |
