Holiday Stress and Divorced Parenting
'Tis the season to be thankful, in another month to be jolly, and, if you're still not convinced, a whole new year right around the corner to try again if things don't work out for you through this year's holiday season! Holiday times for children of newly divorced parents are often the toughest time of year. They often have strong emotional attachments to days gone by when Mom, Dad, their brothers and sisters and they all cheerfully ate too much turkey and sang off-key holiday carols together. Remember that your joy in being away from what became an unbearable situation for you leading to a divorce may not have registered with your children, who are still in denial and are hurt, angry, and depressed.

Every year I take small groups of people to these sacred lakes. They go to find a deeper essence of life, to renew their individual commitment to authenticity. People sit by those lakes and dream, and there is no ego involved. Ego falls off on the way up. These lakes are a place where, legend has it, the power of prayers are multiplied by thousands upon thousands, a place where dreams that are dreamed, come true.
