P.A.U.S.E Before the Holidays | Part 1

Tarina defends how the Monday before Black Friday is Black Friday. Nic confirms she doesn’t need a sale to shop. He also confesses: “I can’t park. I can back up a trailer.” As Tarina has pointed out more than once, “So, you’re going to park into the garage crooked?”

In this episode Tarina sets up the conversation with a question: How do we prepare for the holidays to be kind, generous, and not cause a fuss?

To help, Tarina created an acronym: PAUSE. Pray, Aerobics, Understand, Sit, Express. She created it to give herself pause before meeting with different personalities in what could be stressful times over the holidays.

Tarina points out that PAUSE takes time—in order to be the best person we can be. Nic puts it in his own words that to Pray means to go vertical to God before going horizontal with people.

“A” for Aerobics means to move your body especially in nature. It lowers your blood pressure and releases endorphins. And it’s something you can even do in real time—calm starts in the body and so does stress.

Listen to next week's episode to hear part 2 of PAUSE.
