Answer:

What if it was ok to feel sad and lonely during the Christmas season? What does your brain tell you would happen if you let yourself allow those emotions to come in? Answering these questions and opening up to all emotions will help you get unstuck.
How do you define family? What if there was no definition except the one you make that helps you feel joyful during the holidays? When you tell yourself you’re alone, your brain will find evidence of that. Try turning it around and deciding that there are people everywhere who you can love. Then you get to feel that. As you create an intentional model, take back your power. What makes you most joyful? What do you love about the Christmas season? What’s important to you? How can you bring that joy to others who may be feeling lonely this year? You don’t need to stay distracted, wait for others to include you, or just hope the time passes quickly. If you want joy, make it. Believe that it’s safe for you to have it.
