This holiday = Less stress. More joy. šāØ
What if the holidays didnāt have to feel overwhelming?
Psychologists say most of our holiday stress comes from anticipatory anxietyāworrying before anything actually happens. And research shows the majority of people feel more joy than stress this time of year. š
Somewhere along the way, āholiday stressā became a script we all repeat⦠even when itās not our real experience. So this season, try something radical:
⨠Opt out of the stress narrative.
⨠Stop predicting problems that havenāt happened.
⨠Treat holiday challenges like normal life challenges.
⨠Give yourself permission to enjoy things.
Because hereās the truth:
You have more control over your experience than you think.
And when you stay grounded, the kids feel it too. Calm is contagious. š§āāļøāØ
This holiday?
More joy. More presence. More peace.
Letās breathe into it together. š«
