We are in the thick of the Christmas season, and it is so much fun, but it’s also a lot. So today, I wanted to share a Christmas podcast that’ll help you find a pocket of calm in all of the crazy. It’s called the Calm Christmas Podcast.

A Sneak Peek of Calm Christmas Podcast
Here is a preview from the Calm Christmas podcast so you can get an idea of the cozy vibe that permeates this show.
“Tell me, the little one said, as she snuggled closer on the sofa, about Christmas in the olden days. Mama kissed her blonde curls and shared the thrill of that one gift with her name on it. It was a doll in a pram, the blankets made by wrinkly hands, clacking needles in the candlelight over many wintry nights.
She told stories of stirring the plum pudding with a big wooden spoon and apron at her ankles. Standing on a chair by her mother, whispering a wish as she stirred, and of the wish coming true. Now, as she looked at her own child, face beaming in the firelight, she realized that she had forgotten all that. But this little one was her chance to remember.”
Podcast Introduction
“Welcome to the Calm Christmas Podcast, with me, Beth Kempton. A few words there from my book, Calm Christmas and a Happy New Year. Please come on in, out of the wind. I’m so glad you found this old cottage, hidden away as it is in a small village in the south west of England. Come on through to the kitchen and pull up a chair.
There are gingerbread stars fresh out of the oven and steaming tea in the pot. How have you been, my friend? I’m so glad you’re here and I’ve got so much to share with you. What a joy it is to welcome you to a third season of the Calm Christmas podcast. Timed just as autumn turns to leave and in its shadow offers us a glimpse of winter.
If you’re new to the podcast, welcome. If you’re a listener from previous years, welcome back. It was so lovely to hear from so many of you last year, and I am delighted to be back with a whole new series for this winter. Here on the podcast, we trace the turning of the seasons in nature and in our minds and hearts.
A Moment of Rest in the Holiday Hustle
We seek out ways to be more mindful about the approaching holidays, and I offer inspiration and tips for using this time to rest and restore after yet another full year. This season of the podcast has a particular significance for me because my lovely mum died in April, less than three weeks after a terminal cancer diagnosis.
It was a huge shock, and to be honest, it’s only recently sunk in properly that this will be our first Christmas without her. She absolutely loved this time of year. She always made it so special for me and my brothers when we were growing up. Many of the traditions in my own home are born from things that she did with us or for us when we were children. She taught me what a difference a sprinkling of magic can make to everything in the depths of winter.
I know that there will be deep sadness in the weeks ahead, but I also know that it mattered to her that we continue to embrace Christmas. To treasure it as a time with our own children who are growing up too fast, and to ensure that we welcome light and joy into our homes this year, as we try to do every year.”
