Holiday Stress
Does this happen to you? You’re looking forward to the holidays and planning for them to be the way it was when you were young. Or hoping it will be the complete opposite. Or you do your best Martha Stewart impression. Then- BLAM! Everything blows up. Want to try something different this year?
If you’re a single parent, you’re juggling schedules, parties and projects. If both parents are in the home, you’re still juggling schedules, parties and projects. You might
- remind yourself it IS a stressful time of year
- realize that expectations colliding with actual events can produce disillusionment and unhappiness
- take a moment to breathe
