Inner Gifting: How to Unwrap Your Energy This December

How to "unwrap" the energy you need to enjoy the holidays

Just about everyone I have seen this week has expressed the same disbelief...

It's December already? We are almost to the end of 2025?! How?!

It feels like the signal to rush: Quick, get the tree up, hit the holiday events, pick up the gifts, wrap up the end-of-year work. With how fast the whole of 2025 went, we can pretty much expect that this month will go flying by, too.

So, how are we going to keep up with the spirit of the season and all the socializing that comes with it without burning out?

This month, I want to talk about "Inner Gifting."

I’m not talking about a one-time purchase or a spa day. I’m talking about giving yourself the things you need to be able to show up best until the end of the year. And the first gift is Energy.

We often think of energy as something we "spend," but I like to think of it as something that we can "unwrap" more of, too. 

What helps you sustain yourself through all the events, meals, and shopping trips?

For me, I’ve realized I have to prioritize the things that stir my heart, even when it feels easier to just zone out and hurry to the next task.

• 🎶 It's the power and pep I feel when I hit play on an amazing song. 🎶

  
  

• 💪It's my walk through the park on the way to class, seeing neighbors in their 90s (and even over 100!) performing simple movements while smiling and chatting.💪

  
  

• 🥗It's cooking and sharing a nourishing meal with a loved one.🥗

  
  

• 😍And, of course, it's looking at the enjoyment on my students' faces in class.😍

These moments infuse life and energy back into my day.

Just this past weekend, I had the wonderful experience of joining a big Zumba event organized by a dear student, featuring an amazing international instructor who traveled over 30 hours to come to Taipei! 🥳

You would think he’d be exhausted, but I saw the magic happen: the community, the music, and the movement made the jet lag fall by the wayside.

Energy is contagious.

And as always, I think the dance floor in our classes is such a great place to catch that energy and gift it to yourself.

So, what are the ways you will charge your battery this season?

If it's on the dance floor, come join us this month to unwrap that energy, and mark your calendars especially for December 20th, our big Christmas Party Class!

Keep moving!
