Reduce Holiday Stress

There are several ways to reduce holiday stress. First, remember the holidays do not have to be perfect, so take time for yourself. Before you go gift and food shopping, decide how much money you want to spend. Always plan ahead by setting aside specific days to finish your activities and ask for help to make sure you are not overwhelmed with last minute activities. Also, learn to say no when you have too much to do. You can start feeling resentful by saying "yes" to someone when you really want to say "no." Do not abandon all your healthy habits because over indulgence can add to your stress levels. A relaxing bath may help to clear your mind and relieve the added holiday stress.
