The holiday season, while filled with joy and celebration, can also be a time of heightened stress. From managing finances to balancing family gatherings, many people are extremely stressed. The new year offers a great opportunity to reset and prioritize self-care.
Setting aside time for relaxation, whether it’s reading a book or taking a warm bath or listening to music, can promote mental and emotional well-being.
Exercise plays a crucial role in combating stress, as it boosts endorphins and reduces tension. Whether it’s a walk in nature or a vigorous workout, physical activity helps release built-up stress. Exercise outdoors more. Enjoy this beautiful weather. Nothing compares to fresh air.
Connecting with others can reduce stress. Having a strong social support network can help you feel less stressed. You can find a sense of community at work, through a religious organization, or through shared activities.
Try improving your time management. Feeling overwhelmed can be reduced by managing your time more efficiently.
Establishing a healthy routine with adequate sleep, balanced meals, and hydration can further improve mood and energy levels.
Trying something new for the new year is another way to reduce stress. Why not go back to school. Faith College of Natural Health (FCNH) is a new local college. FCNH is excited to offer a free course (a $90 value) titled “Introduction to Holistic Health”, designed to introduce you to the foundational principles of holistic healing which you can use to help yourself, your significant other, your family, your children, aging parents, friends, and all you love.
