Getting The Most Out of the Holiday
A few things we have learned about the holidays to increase joy and experience it to the fullest. Go slower, keep it simple, buy less, spend time with others, choose activities that require more one on one time and less busyness, take conversations deeper, love more, feel the energy from the friends you meet. Here are a 5 suggestions to help spice up this season:
“Rest time is not waste time. It is economy to gather fresh strength… It is wisdom to take occasional furlough. In the long run, we shall do more by sometimes doing less.”
“The greatest healing therapy is friendship and love.” Hubert H. Humphrey
How can you relax with friends more during this holiday?
“Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.”
― HippocratesIn between the 5th piece of pie, select colorful and natural foods for your family to eat!

Cuddle because research shows that “hugging (and also laughter) is extremely effective at healing sickness, disease, loneliness, depression, anxiety and stress.”

Good advice. I get to spend part of this holiday time walking one of my daughters down the aisle as she gets married. Having family getting together and having all four of my girls together for possibly the last time in a long time. Feeling so blessed.
