I absolutely LOVE LOVE the holidays! It is one of my favorite times of the year. I get to spend it with all my family and friends. However, it can also be a stressful time, as you are trying to finishing up work, appointment, and rushing around buying presents and getting everything organized.
Don’t panic bellow are some info to help manage the holiday and get the most out of Christmas.
1. Create a list
They are going to be your lifesaver. Separate your lists into categories such as presents, decorations, food, events and travel. Write down everything you can possibly think of that you will need to do in relation to these categories, then try to prioritise these from least to most important. Getting it all out onto paper will help clearing your mind and give you something to start from, so you aren't running around like a crazy!
2. Try Shopping Early Or Online
shopping online! one of my favorite, and this is where the lists, I mentioned earlier comes in handy. If you know what you want to buy it makes it much easier to find online. A lot of places have some amazing deal and easy returns. The other major stress of the holiday period is buying presents and going shopping in general. It can be super hard to find time to fit this in your schedule. If you are someone who hates crowds. My best tip is to take advantage of stores extended hours and go super early in the morning, or late at night

3. Take Time For Yourself
I know this may seem like such a silly suggestion during the busy season, but trust me it makes a huge difference! If you are running around frazzled and stressed, it is not going to be helping anyone. When I am going through a super busy period in my life, I try to take some time every couple of days to stop, and do something for myself - such as go for a walk, it relaxes me and help clear up my mind
I hope everyone has a wonderful and enjoyable holiday season with their families and loved ones. Remember, sometimes the best thing to do in this fast paced world is too simply slow down.
Enjoy what surrounds you and be grateful for all the amazing blessings you are surrounded with!
Happy green holidayxoxo Gia
