☕Start or renew your meditation practice. Do NOT add meditation to your to-do list. Instead, consider it a tool to enhance your everyday experiences.

🎎Meditate while standing in line, while cooking, or while walking down the street. Regular meditation can improve focus, reduce stress and anxiety and offer great joy.

🍃Take time to do nothing. Even a few restful moments in between activities, or at the end of the night, can reduce stress and improve awareness and mood.

🍂Remember: Doing nothing doesn't mean checking email or chatting on the phone. Need some help winding down? Consult the "Doing Nothing" guide.

🍃Just breathe. We put so much on our to-do list that we may be stacking up tasks back to back. We need mini breaks to refresh ourselves. For example, if you are waiting for a slice of bread to come out of the toaster, refrain from doing another task. Take the two minutes to just breathe...

👥Practice compassionate listening with friends and family. In order to truly appreciate the time we have with loved-ones, we must be fully present.

👤 The perfect time to practice compassionate listing is when it's most difficult to remain present -- when we have disagreements with a loved one or strong emotions have built up over time.

👥When we leave our body and disconnect our consciousness from the present moment, we miss valuable lessons, connections and understanding. Remember to observe whatever emotions arise, and to treat yourself with loving compassion too.

⛄️Set an intention for this holiday season. It can be as broad or specific as you wish, but take a moment to consider how you'd like to spend this time and where you want to focus your time and energy. This simple action creates awareness, and will help you prioritize.

⛄️ Acknowledge your entrenched holiday habits. The force of habit is the momentum that propels us down familiar paths in life.

⛄️Even when we've acknowledged the need to change our habits, it's easy to stay in autopilot. Change requires a conscious effort.

⛄️You likely have specific holiday season patterns, such as rushing, over-committing, overspending or over consuming. What else? Without blaming yourself, look at these habits and ask: Do these habits serve me well?

🗞The truth is that human rights law has failed to accomplish its objectives. There is little evidence that human rights treaties, on the whole, have improved the wellbeing of people.

🗞 The reason is that human rights were never as universal as people hoped, and the belief that they could be forced upon countries as a matter of international law was shot through with misguided assumptions from the very beginning.

🗞 The human rights movement shares something in common with the hubris of development economics, which in previous decades tried (and failed) to alleviate poverty by imposing top-down solutions on developing countries.

🗞But where development economists have reformed their approach, the human rights movement has yet to acknowledge its failures. It is time for a reckoning.

🎲At a time when human rights violations remain widespread, the discourse of human rights continues to flourish.

🎲The use of “human rights” in English-language books has increased 200-fold since 1940, and is used today 100 times more often than terms such as “constitutional rights” and “natural rights”.

🎲Although people have always criticised governments, it is only in recent decades that they have begun to do so in the distinctive idiom of human rights. The United States and Europe have recently condemned human rights violations in Syria, Russia, China and Iran

🏭 We live in an age in which most of the major human rights treaties – there are nine “core” treaties – have been ratified by the vast majority of countries. Yet it seems that the human rights agenda has fallen on hard times.

🏭 The Chinese model of development, which combines political repression and economic liberalism, has attracted numerous admirers in the developing world.

🏭Political authoritarianism has gained ground in Russia, Turkey, Hungary and Venezuela. Backlashes against LGBT rights have taken place in countries as diverse as Russia and Nigeria.

⚡In July 2013, Amarildo de Souza, a bricklayer living in a Rio de Janeiro favela, was arrested by police in an operation to round up drug traffickers. He was never seen again.

⚡De Souza’s disappearance was taken up by protesters in street demonstrations, which were met with a ruthless police response. Normally, de Souza’s story would have ended there, but public pressure led to a police investigation, and eventually to the arrest of 10 police officers, who were charged with torturing and murdering him.

⚡Brazil, one of the largest democracies in the world, is rarely considered to be among the major human rights-violating countries. But every year more than a thousand killings by police –according to Human Rights Watch – take place in Rio de Janeiro alone.

💡Although the modern notion of human rights emerged during the 18th century, it was on December 10, 1948, that the story began in earnest, with the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights by the UN general assembly.

💡The declaration arose from the ashes of the second world war and aimed to launch a new, brighter era of international relations. It provided a long list of rights, most of which are the familiar “political” rights that are set down in the US constitution, or that have been constructed by American courts over the years.

💡 The declaration was not dictated by the United States, however, and showed the influence of other traditions of legal thought in its inclusion of “social” rights, such as the right to work.

🚹The universal declaration was not a treaty in the formal sense: no one at the time believed that it created legally binding obligations.

🚹It was not ratified by nations but approved by the general assembly, and the UN charter did not give the general assembly the power to make international law.

🚺 Moreover, the rights were described in vague, aspirational terms, which could be interpreted in multiple ways, and national governments – even the liberal democracies – were wary of binding legal obligations.

🚻The US did not commit itself to eliminating racial segregation, and Britain and France did not commit themselves to liberating the subject populations in their colonies.

🎃If you are planning to give gifts, exchange them in advance. And the charity advises staying off social media to avoid Christmassy posts, and trying to avoid adverts on TV or online.

🎇"A lot of people get bogged down in thinking they are not going to enjoy it," Martha says. "And that's OK." It's important to realise Christmas Day is only one day - and it will quickly be over, she says.

🎃"It is only 24 hours and it won't last forever. If you are having the worst day ever, you will go to bed that night and when you wake up Christmas Day will be over."

🎄Of course, you may decide not to mark Christmas at all this year. You could treat it as if it's any other day. "This may feel easier than trying to celebrate alone," Mind says. "It's completely understandable if you feel this way".

🎇If you decide to skip it, the charity says you could let others know your plan. Say you're happy to hear from them on Christmas Day but tell them "they can also support you by treating it like any other day and not mentioning Christmas".
