The holidays are a great time to connect with family and friends, relaxing and strengthening ties. There are also extra pressures that can cause stress and frustration.

According to Psychology Today, “Recent research suggests that women are more vulnerable to holiday stress, and they may be less likely to take the necessary steps to manage it.”

Do these scenarios play out in your home?

•Financial worries – “I really can’t afford this gift, but I know it will make him/her so happy”,
•Strained family relationships – “I’ll go to the family function but I’ll have to stay far away from him/her. I don’t want our arguing to ruin everyone’s holiday.”
•Still painful grieving, “We always held the holiday get-togethers at Grandma’s; it just won’t be the same without her!”

That’s why I want to take time out with you to breathe deeply together and think about strategies to avoid tension this year.
