The holiday season brings joy & togetherness, but it can also lead to stress. Here are a few tips from FWMWA to help you manage stress during this busy time & keep your celebrations joyful.

1. Plan Ahead: Create a schedule for shopping, cooking & gatherings. Prioritize tasks & allocate time wisely to avoid last-minute chaos.
2. Set Realistic Expectations: Understand that not everything will go perfectly. Embrace imperfections & focus on enjoying the moment rather than achieving an ideal scenario.
3. Set a Budget: Financial strain is a common stressor. Plan a budget for gifts, decorations & events to prevent overspending and the anxiety that comes with it.
4. Practice Self-Care: Make time for yourself amidst the festivities. Engage in activities that relax you, whether it’s reading, exercising or meditating.
5. Stay Connected: Reach out to friends & family. Sharing your feelings & experiences can alleviate stress & help you feel supported.
6. Delegate Tasks: Don’t hesitate to ask for help. Involve family members & friends in planning & preparations to lighten your load.

Stress is a normal part of the holiday season, but it doesn't have to take over the celebration. By incorporating these tips, you can minimize stress & ensure your holiday season is filled with happiness & connection. If you're still feeling overwhelmed, talk with a doctor. 🥰
