1. Practice Self-Care: Soak Away the Stresses

Instead of mindlessly scrolling on your phone, actively engage your mind by doing something you genuinely enjoy. Whether its a cooking a homemade meal or playing board games with the family, gift yourself the luxury of being fully present in the moment. Prioritise activities that bring you joy and relaxation.
3. Have an Early Night: Prioritise Rest
Amidst the festive cheer, it's easy to compromise on sleep. However, ensuring you get 7-9 hours of sleep each night is crucial for recharging and fully savouring the festive season with loved ones. While it may be challenging to maintain regular routines during the holidays, making an effort to prioritise sufficient sleep will significantly benefit your wellbeing. Listen to your body and embrace an early night to keep yourself in balance.
