On this episode of Restorative Reading & Writing for Wellness, I’m inviting you to give yourself permission for a holiday pause, a bit of time to drop into your restorative reading and writing practice against a backdrop of beautiful, instrumental holiday music.
Come listen as I give a quick hello, offer a few things you might do during this time and invite you to settle in for some restorative rest.
You’ll find the show notes for the episode with links to all of the books and resources mentioned right here: https://www.alitlife.com/2025/12/23/your-holiday-permission-to-pause/
