The Holiday Blues


14 godina 0 2606 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0

Members,

Sometimes this time of the year can cause people to experience holiday blues. Here are some common sources of holiday sadness:

Stress
Unrealistic expectations
Financial stress
The inability to be with friends and family

Tips for coping with the holiday blues:

Make realistic expectations for the holiday season.
Pace yourself. Do not take on more responsibilities than you can handle.
Make a list and prioritize the important activities. This can help make holiday tasks more manageable.
Live "in the moment" and enjoy the present.
Look to the future with optimism.
If you are lonely, try volunteering some of your time to help others.
