Creating a stress free holiday

Favorite ways to navigate this busy, stressful time of year and make this season a lot more enjoyable, less stressful and a time you will remember with fond memories.

Give up those expectations. A lot of the stress we put on ourselves this season lies in the notion that we expect things to be perfect. That'd be lovely, of course - but putting your entire extended family in one house is bound to have something go awry. Therefore, dropping the expectations of perfection will allow you to be prepared for when something may spring up. There is joy to be found in each situation, so even when things don't go exactly as planned - spend your energy finding gratitude in your circumstances and enjoying as much of your time as you possibly can. Tis the season!
