What's your plan for the holiday period?
As a child, Christmas seemed magical and full of anticipation. But, as an adult I’ve learnt that true festive joy comes from spending time with loved ones and practising self-care.
Prioritising wellbeing helps reduce stress during this busy season. How do you plan to keep your stress levels in check? This is my plan…
· Set boundaries – I can`t go to all the parties!
· Stay Active – Fit in lots of runs – long runs, medium runs, short runs, Park Runs, hills, speed sessions… the lot! Festive pre-breakfast walks with the pooch!
· Remembering loved ones – acknowledge when I feel sad, set time aside to remember friends and family who are no longer here
· Balance Treats: Having yummy vegan treats balanced with nutritious festive meals
· Manage Expectations: Chilling on the sofa whenever I feel like it – not waiting until I feel exhausted or anxious; ask for help if I need it!
· Do lots of the things I love!
Find what works for you so that the holiday period doesn’t feel overly stressful.
