Take Time to Breathe

These are busy days.

While Christmas is truly a beautiful time of year, it's also very hectic.

It's important  to take a few minutes to relax, to breathe deeply, and to not let the "to do" lists overwhelm. 

After all, Santa's not the only one making lists, right?

Sometimes slowing down and relaxing is easier said than done but it's something to definitely strive toward.

WHAT ARE SOME WAYS YOU MANAGE THE STRESS OF THE HOLIDAY SEASON?

Your tree looks so pretty, and you have the colored lights, my favorite. Yes, taking time to relax and enjoy the season is a must for me. I'm drinking peppermint tea right now and doing just that. ; ) I like your little clear angel, Susan, she's precious.

I listen to Christmas music with the specials on tv and go to my grandsons concerts. It gives me peace and harmony in my life.

Yes it can be a hectic time of year. I try to pace myself and get as many tasks completed as early as I can. Then I try to take time to read a special book or watch a favorite Christmas movie. I also try to make as much time as I can to enjoy holiday activities with family and friends. Most importantly, I try not to allow the excitement of the holiday activities to cause me to forget the central reason for the celebrations in the first place.
