Handling Holiday Stress

Enjoy Simplicity
	Tips for a Stress-Free Holiday Season • Keep holiday expectations reasonable. There’s no right way to celebrate. Don’t feel inadequate if your holiday party isn’t as elaborate as your neighbor’s. Not every season will be holiday-card perfect. Tip: Enjoying the moment and the gathering of family and friends. Don’t consider the holidays a disappointment if a soufflé falls or if the turkey is a little dry. •Take Care of Yourself. Stick with healthy eating choices. Remember, you can have a little bit of everything. Moderation is the key especially with sweets and alcohol. Drink plenty of water to remain hydrated. And you’ll get a full feeling too. Tip: Choose dessert OR bread instead of dessert AND bread. More >
