Changing a habit is hard. But sometimes, our habits get in the way of our happiness. Here's one perspective on why so many of our habits are a source of suffering and how we can change those that no longer serve us. https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/turning-straw-into-gold/202504/why-so-many-of-our-habits-are-a-source-of-suffering

As the days grow shorter and temperatures drop, many people experience a shift—not just in their routines, but in their mood, energy, and overall mental well-being. Whether you face seasonal affective disorder (SAD), mild winter blues, or simply the weight of cold months, there are ways to “winter well.”

“Wintering well” doesn’t mean forcing constant cheerfulness or pretending this time of year is easy. It means supporting your emotional health with intention, gentleness, and strategies that work with the season, not against it.

Here are meaningful ways to support your mental wellness through winter and emerge in spring feeling steadier, grounded, and more resilient. https://holdonyoumatter.com/wintering-well-how-to-support-your-mental-wellness-in-the-cold-dark-months/

Holiday stress can build quickly, but effective stress management helps keep the season joyful and balanced. Start by setting realistic expectations and remembering that perfection isn’t required.

Prioritize what truly matters, and don’t be afraid to say no to extra commitments that drain your time and energy. Create a simple budget to avoid financial pressure, and make space for self-care, whether it’s a walk, a quiet cup of tea, or time with a favorite hobby.

Stay connected with supportive friends and family, and communicate openly about your needs. Most importantly, practice gratitude and focus on meaningful experiences rather than holiday pressures.

Ryan Reynolds has been open about his lifelong struggle with anxiety. He shares several coping mechanisms including mindfulness and meditation--and laughter.

Adding more laughter into our lives has so many benefits, including:

1. Lowers Stress Fast
Laughter triggers the release of feel-good hormones like endorphins while lowering cortisol, the stress hormone.

2. Boosts Connection & Belonging
Sharing a laugh with someone instantly creates rapport.

3. Supports Physical Health
Laughter increases oxygen flow, improves circulation, and even strengthens your immune response.

We can all aim to seek out more laughter during each day for a little boost. 😆

One of the healthiest things you can do for your mind is to understand what’s in your control—and what isn’t. 🌿

Trying to manage everything leads to stress and burnout. But when you focus your energy on what you can influence—your reactions, boundaries, and choices—you create space for calm, growth, and resilience.

Let go of what’s beyond your reach. Protect your peace. 💛
