Prioritizing Your Mental Health This Holiday Season

One of the most impactful things we can do for ourselves while navigating the holiday blues is to simply check in with ourselves, without judgement, and acknowledge how we are feeling at any given moment.

Studies show that simply labeling and connecting with your feelings can decrease anxiety and depression. Activities such as journaling, meditation, or talking to a therapist can help you to process how you’re feeling inside.

 

Stay connected to friends and family.

There are plenty of ways to spend time with loved ones this season. Whether it’s inviting a friend for a walk, a video check-in with family, phone call, email, or text, find ways to reach out. 

Move more.

Take a walk, a workout class, or do whatever gets you moving. Find a type of exercise that feels best for your body to stay active throughout the season. 

Eat nutritious foods.

While this is a time of indulgence, it can also be a wonderful opportunity to discover healthy alternatives and experiment with festive recipes. Seek out new, deliciously nutritious foods.
