If you’re anything like me, you know the holiday season is coming, and yet, it somehow always feels like it sneaks up on you, trading your joy for what feels like an impossible to-do list. What follows is a feeling of overwhelm, exhaustion, and stress, even when good things are happening. The gap between the “picture-perfect” ideal and our chaotic reality leaves us depleted and in recovery mode as the new year rolls around. But it doesn’t have to be this way! This week, episode 284 of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast is about how to protect your peace this holiday season.
In this episode of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast, I’m sharing simple, practical, and compassionate ways to set healthy boundaries, manage high expectations, and guard your mental energy so you can truly enjoy the holiday season without losing yourself in the process.
I cover the following topics:
- Three reasons why the holiday season comes with so much added stress.
- The cost of not setting limits around your time and energy.
- Four practical strategies for protecting your peace during the holiday season.
- A cozy bonus tip to reduce stress and regulate your nervous system.
Protecting your peace is an act of self-care that allows you to show up for what truly matters. I encourage you to take back the joy of your holiday season by choosing intention over obligation.
