Holiday Stress Relief
–Take a Time-Out
Taking even 10 minutes to sit quietly and shut out the chaos around you can trigger your relaxation response.
–Visualize a Special Place
Close your eyes and imagine yourself relaxing on the beach or sitting in front of a cozy fireplace with your family
–Regain a Sense of Control
Schedule no more than one or two manageable goals per day, even if they’re as simple as writing a few cards or cleaning a small section of a room.
–Sniff Some Citrus
Researchers studying depression have found that citrus fragrances boost feelings of well-being and alleviate stress
–Do Something for Others
Share a meal with someone who doesn’t have family in the area, or consider visiting or volunteering at a nursing home
–Get Moving!
Research shows that physical activity not only boosts your fitness and energy levels but can also elevate your moods. In addition, exercise has been found to reduce anger, tension, fatigue and confusion.
–Forget Perfection
The world is not going to end if the house is a little cluttered or dinner is on the table a few minutes late.
–Take Time for Yourself
Try massage, a hot bath, mini-relaxations, or a quick walk to ease tension. Be sure you’re eating right, sleeping well and laughing often.
