Ways to Make the Holiday Season a Success
by Rhian BallHoliday season is a cause for great celebration -- but also has potential for disaster as everyone is thrown together in a concentrated period. Here are some tips for enjoying the festivities wherever you are!
1. Spend time reviewing your holiday schedule in advance.
Don't leave it until the last minute to decide what to do with your holiday time -- if you suddenly decide that you don't want to be on your own it can be difficult to organize travel and accommodation at the last minute. Review your plans at least every quarter and make decisions about upcoming holidays in advance.
2. Find a balance between time on your own and time with others.
Holiday time hype can often underline the negative sides of life -- and maybe leave you feeling slightly sad and alone. If you're not traveling to be with family or friends, why not invite some people round yourself? Drinks or finger food are informal and make sure that you have a focus on connecting with others over the holiday period.
3. Find some new interests to pursue during the holiday time.
If you're going to have quality time to yourself, don't waste it! Make a list of things you always wanted to do, books you want to read, films you want to see, and gather them together in advance so that you always have inspiration and new material at hand.
4. Make a point of getting some exercise and fresh air over the holiday season.
Whether alone or with others, holiday season provides the ideal opportunity for slothfulness and overeating! Take time to go for at least a short walk every day -- the exercise will freshen your body and the natural daylight will sharpen your senses.
5. Find some personal space.
Time spent together for families used to living apart and following their own paths can be stressful. Find your own space -- maybe go for a drive or a walk alone and recover your sense of calm. Breathe deeply and find stillness for yourself at least twice a day over the holiday season.
6. Celebrate your family!
Time spent together is precious -- celebrate each one of your family and companions over the holiday season and write a list of 3 points which you appreciate about each one of them. If you find your nerves fraying, concentrate on these 3 points and celebrate the person instead of letting their behaviors aggravate you -- it works and makes for everyone feeling much more positive!
7. Spend some quality time with everyone.
Take time to talk to each person you're spending the holidays with and find out what's going well for them, what they're worrying about and what they are currently interested in. Be a good listener -- practice quality listening without letting your mind wander and really make people feel that you care about them.
8. Think of others.
Spend time with a person who is housebound, donate some unwanted gifts to your local charity. Think about how you can make a difference in the world at large rather than just in your own circle of family and friends.
9. Spend more time thinking about gifts.
The saying goes "it's the thought that counts, not the cost." Spend more time and less money on gifts -- and delight the recipient more too!
10. Enjoy your holiday!
Whatever you are doing, appreciate it and be there in the moment -- don't waste your life by wishing you were somewhere else. Happy Holidays!
