Hmmm- Tis the Season

Wow- this is a wonderful time of year but it can also be very stressful. No matter which religion or philosophy you follow there will probably be more celebrations with lots of food and drink. How do you handle this, especially if you are on a Wellness Journey?

First, enjoy it. Have that food that you normally would not have. Life is too short to feel deprived but always keep your long term goal in mind. Good health.

If you like to bake your favourite treats go ahead but maybe you know someone who is lonely or depressed that you can share them with. Also, there are many in nursing homes who never get visitors. I'm sure they would love a treat.

There are many strategies at this time BUT the big one is to not beat yourself up. Don't overdo it but enjoy some fun and hopefully good times with those you love. Spread the cheer.
