Christmas: 5 tips - have a party with a difference.

You may want to include some of these into your daily life for a more fulfilling and interesting time with friends and family.


1) Share: Avoid wanting to make everything perfect. This just creates stress.  Remember what this is all about, being together, sharing and having fun.
Share what you are grateful for.
2) Change: Change seating places during your meal (between each course for example or for each meal of the day). A new seating arrangement can give a different perspective and type of conversation too.
3) The power of Silence: have 1 course in silence and use all your other senses -sight-smell-taste-feel-listen-touch to enjoy the time. Then, if you fancy you can discuss what you experienced.
4) Communication: - one at a time-every one takes turns in sharing something (may be something that was meaningful for the year or their achievement or something that was fun,  why it is important to them) and everyone else listens till it is their turn rather than everyone butting in with their bit.
-When you speak, you could take more pauses than you usually would and hold some pause for longer than you usually would. Does this help you get your message across better?
5) Games: Have some games that aren’t necessarily about anyone winning, like making the shapes of numbers with your body
  For fifteen more game suggestions then please email me:  subject line: party play.  Please rest assured your details will not be passed on.
