To hit the reset button, I crawled into bed to sneak a short nap but instead ended up staring at the wall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And in those quiet moments, I found myself reflecting on the <strong>true<\/strong> spirit of the holiday season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Being present with your loved ones. Gorging yourself on baked goods.
