🎄 Why Holiday Stress Happens

Even positive events can create emotional strain. Common stress triggers include:

  • Increased responsibilities and family expectations

  • Financial pressure from gifts or travel

  • Disrupted schedules and sleep patterns

  • Social obligations or loneliness

  • End-of-year workload buildup

Recognizing these triggers is the first step toward healthier coping.

🌼 Practical Ways to Protect Your Mental Health

1. Set Boundaries Without Guilt

It’s okay to say “no” to extra events or commitments. Protect your energy so you can enjoy the moments that truly matter.

2. Plan Ahead to Reduce Pressure

From meals to travel to budgeting — small planning steps can dramatically cut down holiday stress.

3. Create a Calm Corner

A quiet space in your home can help reset your nervous system.
Even 10 minutes of intentional breathing or silence can make a big difference.

4. Maintain Your Routine When Possible

Consistent sleep, hydration, and simple self-care routines keep your mind balanced.

5. Ask for Support if You Need It

Emotional struggles during the holidays are more common than you think. Seeking support is a sign of strength.
