Merry Christmas from Hop-A-Long Studio

I wanted to take a moment to wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! I know for many of us 2020 has been a challenging year with many ups and downs, but I hope that it ends on a high note for all of you. Many of us are not able to visit with our families this Christmas. In my city, we are not allowed to meet in groups outside of our family unit for another few weeks. This can make for a challenging time for some of us.

If you are having challenges this time of year and need to talk to someone, I have provided some links below that can help you through these difficult times:

• Canada-wide Mental Health Resources: https://www.ccmhs-ccsms.ca/mental-health-resources-1
• Canadian Mental Health Association: https://cmha.ca/
• National Institute of Mental Health: https://www.nimh.nih.gov/index.shtml

My hope is that despite the change in our traditions and plans, that this Christmas is a good one for you. Perhaps a quiet, peaceful time for reflection and relaxation. Whatever the case, I hope that you have a lovely Christmas and a Happy New Year. I am looking forward to connecting with you all again in 2021!
