Stress Busting Tips for the Holidays

From the October 2015 Benefits eNews

One of the keys to enjoying a more relaxing holiday season is to have a plan for the situations that often bring you stress. Keeping your expectations realistic, looking after your own health, and applying limits on what you’ll agree to do can be important components of less-stressful holidays.

Here are some quick and easy tips for beating holiday stress.

Do most of your shopping online in order to minimize the stress of crowds and parking lots.
Schedule some of your favorite “me” time over the holidays. See a movie, read a book, or just set aside some quiet meditative time to thoroughly slow down.
Take outdoor breaks: stargaze for a few minutes or take a long walk in the brisk air.
Enjoy a long, relaxing, candlelit soak in the tub with bath fragrances or salts, and put on some soothing music in the background.
If your holiday stress gets to be too much, contact your Magellan program at any time for confidential, no-cost counseling and resources.
