Unfortunately, the extra responsibilities of holiday shopping, decorating, baking, and entertaining make this time of year challenging for many people. What can you do to truly enjoy the holiday season? It all comes down to making conscious decisions and setting priorities. Here are some tips: Forget “Keeping Up With the Joneses” Pay less attention to what other people are doing and focus more on doing the right thing for you and your family. Don’t worry what gifts other people are buying for their kids. Don’t feel pressured to put up as many lights as your neighbors. Don’t feel bad if you bring bakery cookies to the cookie exchange instead of homemade. You’re in charge of deciding where you want to spend your time and money this holiday season. Stick to a Budget Extra expenses are a major source of holiday stress. To help alleviate this, plan ahead and decide what you can comfortably afford to spend on gifts, then develop your shopping list accordingly. When you shop, be smart about comparing prices and taking advantage of sales and coupons. You may also want to consider drawing names within your family so everybody buys for just one person, setting a limit on the cost of gifts, or making gifts instead of buying them. Divide and Conquer There’s no law that says you have to spend days personally preparing all of the food for a big holiday dinner. Make it a potluck and ask people to bring a dish. Or order some items from a restaurant or grocery store. Take Care of Yourself It’s always important to get enough sleep, eat right, and exercise. But it’s especially important during the holiday season when you’re dealing with added stress. Even if it means streamlining your calendar and “to do” list, make sure you take care of your physical and emotional health. By making mindful choices, you can significantly reduce your stress and increase your enjoyment. All of us at Rainbow hope you have a simply wonderful holiday season. Don’t Let Stress Make a Mess of Your Holiday
