Holiday Stress Management Tips:
Don't abandon healthy habits. Don't let the holidays become a free-for-all. Overindulgence only adds to your stress and guilt.
Try these suggestions:
• Have a healthy snack before holiday meals so that you don't go overboard on sweets, cheese or drinks.
• Eat healthy meals.
• Get plenty of sleep.
• Include regular physical activity in your daily routine.
• Try deep-breathing exercises, meditation or yoga.
• Avoid excessive tobacco, alcohol and drug use.
• Be aware of how the information culture can produce undue stress, and adjust the time you spend reading news and social media as you see fit.
Creative Empowerment Opportunities wishes everyone a safe, healthy and happy holiday season! Let’s put 2020 behind us as we look forward to a New Year in 2021!
