Resource for today’s episode: Happy Holidays Digital Planner – Includes today’s brainstorming activity, as well as gift lists, card lists, decorations and crafts planners, menu planners, and more. Use it year after year!
Ask yourself right now: What do the holidays mean to you? What do you want to remember?
Here's a way to make your holidays more enjoyable and less frenetic.
1. Brainstorm a list of activities you include this time of year or want to include. You can ask other family members to do this too.
o Special meals and baking
o Certain TV shows or movies
o Gifts
o Performances
o Decorating
o Winter sports
o Birthday and anniversary celebrations
o Other things that may take your time and energy in December
2. Once you’ve created a master list of activities, discuss it with your family. You may want to have them rate how important each activity is to them. Think carefully about how much time and energy each activity involves. Be realistic.
3. Look at your calendar and how much open time you have over the next month. Remember, if you add, you need to subtract as well. Do you need to drop some of your usual activities? Can you take some time off work?
4. Cross things off that are not that important. If you feel hesitant to do this, treat 2024 as an experiment. You can always change it next year.
5. Be creative. If there’s an activity your family enjoys that takes a lot of time, can you participate in a simpler way?
Have a wonderful holiday season!
