While spending time with those you love and relaxing is always important no matter the time of year, sometimes it can be difficult to prioritize over other obligations such as work or school. But this holiday season, when there is time off from work and no school, I challenge you to completely escape from work and stress and do things that you enjoy doing with your family.
We tend to get so focused on our mandatory responsibilities that we put our personal needs on the back burner. This only makes us more tired, more stressed and less inclined to be successful at work.
It really doesn’t matter what you are doing when you spend time with people you love, as long as it is something you enjoy, and something that helps you clear your mind from your everyday stresses.
When I spend time with my family, I really enjoy going outdoors and hiking or kayaking. For us, it is the most relaxing thing to be surrounded by nature and breathe in the fresh air.
Other possible activities could include going to the gym, creating art, shopping, watching a movie, or even going for a car ride.
There is no better time than now to start putting yourself and your wellness first, and maybe even make a few memories along the way.
Happy Holidays from my family to yours,
Angie Blakemore
