-4- Viewed in one light,.the
holidays can be-seen as a
chance to retreat from the
ordinary -- a time for re-
viewing our inner thoughts
and evaluating our basic
needs as human beings.
With both the temporal
and spiritual aspects of
. 1 „. the holidays in mind,
\I / take time to consider
/ and reflect upon whatever
food (or other) decisions
you may be confronted with this
holiday season. Respect the power
of choice and do your best to make
thoughtful, well-informed selec-
tions. Most importantly, honestly
evaluate the choices you do make,
and be open/ready to change. A
good coach/counselor can increase
the likelihood of your success.

But the holidays are not just for .
eating and drinking and sometimes
over-indulging ourselves — they
also offer an opportunity to bring
a real sense of shared spirituality
into•our homes, workplaces, and,
most importantly, our hearts.
