let’s take back our Black Friday\u00a0:)<\/b><\/h2>\n

instead of running around frantic participating in all the consumerism\u00a0built up around the holidays, let’s take back our black Friday and come back to the true essence of what we are supposed to be celebrating holidays for in the first place.\u00a0 on this Black\u00a0Friday (and any day that suits\u00a0you):<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. choose NOT to participate in the madness.<\/strong>\u00a0 instead, CHOOSE to enjoy the day off and spend some quality time doing nothing.<\/li>\n
  2. take some time to truly think about all the people you are grateful for:<\/strong>\n
      \n
    1. find a special spot, break out a notepad and paper.<\/li>\n
    2. make a list of the people you’re grateful for and for whom you want to express your appreciation.<\/li>\n
    3. really put some thought into what it is you want to do to show our appreciation.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      here are some of our ideas for “gifts:”<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. put a message out to your family and friends<\/strong> setting some ground rules and your expectations from them as far as gifts to you.\u00a0 something along the lines of “because I am choosing to DON\u2019T BUY ME SOMETHING FOR THE SAKE OF BUYING ME SOMETHING OR THE HOLIDAYS.\u00a0 spend some time with me.<\/li>\n
      2. when it comes to doing for others, the best thing any of us can offer is our healthful presence.\n

        <\/strong><\/li>\n

      3. IF WE ARE GOING TO BUY OR DO SOMETHING, put some deliberate thought into it and make sure it adds value!\u00a0 <\/span><\/strong>what are their preferences?\u00a0\u00a0what would they actually get value of, use, or benefit from?\n

        <\/span><\/li>\n

      4. choose a favorite book!!!<\/strong>\u00a0 <\/span>and request they actually read it!\u00a0 something that has changed your life and that you know will change theirs.<\/li>\n
      5. choose EXPERIENCES.<\/strong>\u00a0 <\/span>tickets to a show, or a dinner date with you, or even cooking dinner\u00a0together.<\/li>\n
      6. gift cards kinda suck!\u00a0 <\/span>but some cash?\u00a0 cash is a great idea.<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>for some reason that seems a little more valuable!\u00a0 a $5, $10, or $20 bill with a note!<\/li>\n
      7. just about anyone in the SHT community would appreciate coffee, bacon, and\/or chocolate<\/strong><\/li>\n
      8. a donation to a noble cause in their name!<\/strong><\/li>\n
      9. A HOMEMADE CARD!!!!<\/strong><\/li>\n
      10. the gift of health!!!<\/strong>\u00a0 buy them an SHT Real Foodie Masterclass :)<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
