Have you ever found yourself dreading holiday travel, parties, and programs — while everyone around you seems sooo excited?
For many of us, all the seasonal festivities can quickly become an overwhelming avalanche of stress, overstimulation, and exhaustion. And then, we end up feeling guilty for not being able to “just roll with it” … or even ashamed that we can’t focus on “the reason for the season.”
So today, we’re exploring:
-
why travel and big events can take such a huge toll on us
-
how past choices have made things harder than necessary
-
how-to tips for navigating holiday trips and group gatherings.
With intentional planning, you can honor your God-given HSP wiring and truly en-joy the most wonderful time of the year.
