Christmas Stress & The Mental Load of Motherhood — You Deserve a Moment of Peace
Sure, the holiday season is magical — twinkling lights, joyful music, and the excitement of giving. But for many mothers, it’s also an incredibly stressful time.
Behind the scenes, there’s the endless list of things to do:
- Shopping for gifts
- Planning meals
- Organising events
- Remembering every detail so your family feels the magic
All of this lands on your shoulders — the mental load — that invisible to-do list running in your head day and night. It’s a lot. And it’s okay to admit that you feel overwhelmed, tired, or even burnt out.
We do it every year.
And every year we say we’ll do it differently.
Is this your year?
You don’t have to carry it all without support.
Reiki offers a quiet, healing space to pause, breathe, and receive. It helps calm the nervous system, ease anxious thoughts, and restore your energy — emotionally, physically, and spiritually.
More than just relaxation, Reiki gives you a chance to slow down, clear your mind, and reconnect with yourself. It helps release built-up stress, calm the nervous system, and bring clarity to your thoughts. That means better decision-making, more emotional resilience, and a steadier presence for yourself and your family.
Taking this time now, in the lead-up to Christmas, can make a real difference in how you move through the season.
Instead of rushing and reacting, you move with intention.
Instead of feeling scattered, you feel grounded.
Instead of just getting through it, you get to enjoy it.
If you’re feeling the weight of the season already, consider this your invitation to pause. A Reiki session is a small step that can have a big impact on how you feel, how you show up, and how you experience the lead up to Christmas.
Bookings are open now for pre-Christmas Reiki sessions. (This time of year, session book out - so please don’t miss out if this is something you need!)
I’d love to help you reset and move into the holidays feeling calm, clear, and truly present.
Love Katie xoxo
