What do you do to survive the holiday hustle and bustle? The past year or so has been especially tumultuous and has forced some of us to examine what we do with our time.
Some things I have done to relieve stress is minimize social media exposure, especially the last few weeks; watch only 15 minutes of news each night to include weather and sports; READ some books!; spend some quality time with family members just chatting about anything other than politics and other stressors.
I strongly suggest exercise, puzzles, coloring and other passive activities to ease, yet re-shape the mind. We have become too reliant on technology and have spent way too much time in front of screens.
If you are a person of faith, you know what you should be doing. Don't procrastinate, just get on with it!
While this post may have not seemed sleuthy, it is reflective of the current trends, research and common sense. If you read this post and have some positive strategies to share, please do so! Together, we can help others cope and become stronger!
Thank you! 💗
