The holiday season is upon us and that usually means big meals, family events and parties. While this is often a lovely time of year to connect with family and friends, sometimes it comes with a degree of stress that can feel overwhelming and leave you unable to enjoy your time fully.
I find the holiday season particularly stressful. Although I love hosting, seeing everybody there is to see, and dressing up, I can also find myself getting easily overstimulated by the lights, noises and high-energy interactions. When this happens, I’ve found the best thing I can do is take five minutes away from the noise to focus on my breathing. Then, I can come back and sparkle as required.
