Be Flexible
Sometimes we are so used to doing things the same way but sometimes it is ok to make new traditions. You could change your menu or decide to eat out. Or change how you do your decor or the music you play. You don’t have to do what has always been done.
Simplify Gifting
There are countries where gift-giving is a thing and others where it is not. If you are into gift giving you need to write a list of the things you need. You can then set a budget and stick to it. Before going shopping it is important to take time to plan before you go shopping. If you are experiencing financial challenges you can give smaller presents.
Relaxation is key
It is important to remember to relax during the holidays. Take some time to relax and enjoy the holidays. Take time to watch movies, read, do yoga or do some doodling.
Stay Healthy
While it is good to indulge, don’t give up your healthy habits during the holiday. Don’t forget to exercise, eat some healthy meals and also get enough sleep. You should also drink enough water. This will make a difference.
Don’t aim for perfection
It is ok if things are not perfect. Just do what you can.
